Depends. Legal age of emancipation, for child support purposes, is 21 in MS. Meaning that you are obligated to pay child support until the child reaches 21. Exceptions do apply such as, the child getting married or moving out on his/her own, not maintaining a full time student status or joins the military full time before the age of 21, then child support, by order of the courts, can possibly be stopped.

The child doesn't receive child support. The custodial parent does. The state of MS normally orders child support through the age of 21, if the child is still in school.

You can find the laws regarding this under MS Code 93-11-65(8a).

Can new wife be ordered to pay child support if fathers not working or paying ordered child support in ms?
There are two answers to this, a legal one and a practical one.Legal first: the court may not impose a duty on the new wife to support the child, any more than they could walk out of the courthouse, grab a random passerby, and order them to pay the child support.However: In the absence of a prenuptial agreement to the contrary, money earned by either spouse is usually considered to be held in common. So while the court can't order her specifically to pay the child support, they very definitely can order him to pay it, or go to jail and have his assets seized.That leads us to the practical answer that if he can't or won't get a job then it may just be easier all around for her to pay it. This obligation would, of course, cease when she comes to her senses and divorces the deadbeat herself.
