The parent is supposed to get the child support, not the minor child.
Typically, the custodial parent of a minor continues to receive child support until the minor becomes an adult or is emancipated.
Financially, yes.
Unless there are unusually circumstances, once a minor becomes an adult under the laws of the state in which he or she lives (or as stated in the support order) child support ends. If he or she has established residence outside the custodial parent's home with the approval of the custodial parent, the obligated parent should petition the court to have the support order amended or rescinded. Child support money is for the support of minor children and not "owed" to the custodial parent. The custodial parent does have the legal right to sue the obligated parent for any arrearages or "extra" expenses incurred while the minor child was in his or her care.
The parent may leave a child out of their will. If they are a minor, the court may include them so the state doesn't have to pay for their support.

If a custodial parent receives child support for the benefit of a minor child, and that minor child has a child themselves, they can receive child support for their child, however, as far as federal aid, they are required to disclose the child support the custodial parent receives for their benefit as income.
If you are separated from the other biological parent, and he is a minor, then you simply sue the other parent for monthly child support.

No. The minor has the same needs as before which the parents have to pay for. The minor and the father of her child will have to pay for their own child.

No. Support is based upon the income of the non custodial parent and in some cases the needs of the minor child/children.
No, child support doesn't stop. Quitting school does not emancipate a minor.
