Yes, as there is no statute of limitations on recovery of arrears.
No, not likely. If you are over 18 yrs. of age, you are considered an adult, and child support is exactly what it is...."child-support" for CHILDREN, not adults!
There are a few different support groups available nationwide for adult children of alcoholics. A couple of the most common support groups available are Adult Children and the Al-Anon family group.
No, Virginia Apgar did not have any children nor did she ever get married. She focused on her education and career throughout her adult life.
Probably - the support is owed to the obligee (i.e., other parent and/or State), not to the children.
No. If he chose to give your adult children money, then that was his decision and you are not obligated to reimburse him for any of it. And to take it a bit further, even if the children were still minor after the divorce and he chose to give them money, you would not be obligated to reimburse him for that, either. Child support money goes to the custodial parent for support of the children, not directly to the children.

An exception to the rule that parents' duty to support their children ends at the children's majority occurs when the child is disabled. In cases where the child is disabled, mentally or physically, and therefore unable to support himself/herself upon reaching the age of majority most states have adopted the rule that parents have a duty to support their adult disabled children. Most often, courts define "disability" in economic terms, i.e., the inability of the adult disabled child to adequately care for himself/herself by earning a living by reason of mental or physical infirmity. States differ as to whether support for an adult disabled child is determined by the state's child support guidelines or by the needs of the child as balanced by the parents' ability to provide support. In the case the child CAN support themselves then they'd be legally an adult at their states normal age of majority which is generally 18.
Filial responsibility laws are state laws that require adult children to financially support their parents. However, these laws are not commonly enforced and vary in scope and application across states.
Alcoholics Anonymous, Alanon, Alateen, Adult Children of Alcoholics and a variety of less-specific programs.
Although support for most children ends when the child attains majority, completes school and/or becomes emancipated, support for severely disabled children often continues into the child's adult years.
No. The child support was owed to the custodial parent and not the child. In order to obtain a judgment lien the adult children would need legal standing to bring suit in civil court- they wouldn't qualify. Also, there may be a statute of limitations. They, and their mother, should consult with an attorney who specializes in family law to determine if their mother can file a claim against the estate.
