It varies by state.
Example: In NY, you must pay child support until the child is 21 (unless the child becomes emancipated...and that's usually hard to prove anyway).
In Texas, child support is paid until the child is 18.
In Pennsylvania, you also pay until the child is 18 UNLESS they are a full time student in college (in which case you have to pay until they're 21).
I have always tried to do my best to support my children financially ( and yes, i do pay child support). And I will ALWAYS try to help them regardless of what age they are.
However, for the state to have a law that a parent should pay until the child is 21....i think that is B.S.!!!
They can go to college, go in the military, get a job, smoke, get a tattoo, vote, have sex....all these things but they still make a parent pay child support until 21?? I don't agree with it.
What else can I help you with?

Does a father have to pay child support if he relinquishes his parental rights when the teenage children have cut him off?
Yes.
Can you write off child support?
no you can not write off child support
What is the cut off age for filing for child support if an order was never filed in the state of Texas?
There is no cut off age for establishing a child support order. Even if the child is 18 and has graduated high school, child support can still be sought from the non-custodial parent. However, the judge may determine that a reduced amount is owed, or even that no child support is owed at all, if the non-custodial parent was unaware of his parenthood or if the custodial parent never attempted to contact him to make him aware of his parenthood. Unless the child is severely handicapped, the court is not going to enter an order for support once the child has attained majority and/or become emancipated.

Child support is based off of what?
Child support is based of how much the main guardian spends on the child/children.
Can your support order be changed if a child you are paying support for has a child?
Let's see, a 13-14 yr old can biologically have a child. So would you cut off support to your 13-14 yr old, making it harder on your ex? It seems you would have a better legal argument if your child was closer to 17-18 years old.
Do you have to pay child support for a person who is 21?
Not usually, but there are some cases in which you might. 1. Some states require the non-custodial parent to continue to pay child support if the child hasn't graduated high school and is still living with the custodial parent. 2. If the child is disabled, there is no cut off age for ending child support. The non-custodial parent will continue to owe child support for as long as the disabled child lives with the custodial parent.
You pay 600 per month child support to the State of Texas for a child you have never seen but who has your DNA The child will be 18 years old in June 2009 Does that end your court ordered obligation?
As long as there is no back-support owed (Child support that is owed from previous months not paid) then 18 is the cut off limit for child support and you would no longer be obligated to pay. HOWEVER, in the state of Texas, if the child continues into college, the legal guardian of the child can bring you to court to continue the support until the child graduates from college.
What age does can you stop paying child support when your child is in college?
It depends on how the CS orders are written - if they are written to include support while the child attends college, then you pay until you hit the cut off. If college was not stipulated in the orders - you need to pay until the child finishes High School and turns 18.
