Morally yes, you are responsible for your own children and should not expect another man to provide for them, legally, it depends what the judge says. Thats if you are asking a moral question and not trying to get out of payments but actually trying to lower them; then you can petition the agency/court to re evaluate the finances of both parents. If at all possible the stipulation of how often you see the child also is or can be considered. Every two years COLA is applied to child support measures that is when either litigent can ask for a re-evaluation
A lot of countries take into account the fact that you are living with someone and with that knowledge alone they will reduce the child support you have to pay as it is assumed that know you are living with a partner you have more expenses.
While not the norm, yes, it can happen, and is based on the non-custodial's parenting time. However child support calculation is complicated and involves many factors. Consult an attorney in your area for an informed opinion.

Child support in Ohio usually continues until the child is 18, and up to the age of 21 if the child is in school. Whether or not you have to pay child support if the child is living with the noncustodial parent depends on the support order that it is in place Typically you can expect that you will have to expect to pay support.
It's not automatic. I suggest that you contact your State's child support agency.
Usually it's 21. Generally it will be the legal age of majority as established by the state where the minor resides. The determination of the date when the child support terminates should be included in your original or amended support order If you still are not certain, contact the attorney who handled the case or the court clerk where the order was issued. NEVER cease support payments unless you are absolutely positive of the legal status of the order.
If both of the parents have a joint legal custody arrangement, you have to give the noncustodial parent that information. If you have sole custody of the child, you do not have to share that information with the noncustodial parent.

Child support needs to be decided on by the court. In most cases, the noncustodial parent is responsible for something. If the custodial parent makes considerably more than the noncustodial parent, monies many not even be exchanged. To resolve this issue, it is best to file papers at your court house.
