Child support ends at age 18 or when the child graduates from high school up to age 20. Whichever occurs last.

From my understanding it can continue as long as the child continue his education

Dear tjones:

Greetings. It stops when the child reaches age 18 or graduates from high school, up to the age of 20. Thank you and good luck.
