No, the parent isn't responsible for any of the child's financial needs after the child turns 18. Sometimes parents may decide to take care of special needs, such as a college education, but there are no requirements that they do so. * The exception is if there is a standing order of child support or other court order that stipulates otherwise. Many child support orders will require that the parent provide financial support and/or medical coverage until the child reaches a specific age which is not always the legal age of majority.

What are the laws for responsibility of health insurance for a teen pregnant child IN CT.?

If the child is under age 18, then the parent is responsible for her medical bills. That is not the same as being responsible for providing her health insurance. At this point, (2013), there is not a requirement to have health insurance. If the child is age 18 or older, then the parent is not responsible for her bills. The hospital or physician's office may try to involve you, and encourage you to help her, but legally, the parent would not have the responsibility.
