Best Answer

In most (probably all) jurisdictions where a formula is used to determine the amount of child support, it will take into account the income of both parties and their expenses. If your ex is making $500 a week but paying $250 a week for child care, their net income will be reduced to account for that. This will result in you paying more child support.

So, in that sense, the answer is yes. If you mean paying the child support ordered by the court and then also paying child care on top of that, then no, unless the support order specifically says you have to.

The legal age of majority for the state is 18. However, the terms stipulated in the child support order determines when the obligated parent can cease payment. The pregnancy would not be a factor in whether or not the noncustodial parent is still financially obligated. If the terms of the order are unclear, it would be advisable for the obligated parent to obtain legal advice before taking any action.
