Do you still pay child support if your child fails the 12th grade..after passing all other grades...to pursue a GED before 20?
my oldest child was an A student, until the child support laws changed, now in her senior year she is failing everything. If she fails out of school does child support still continue?
The answer to this question depends upon your child support agreement in place. Many Child Support Guidelines and Ordersonly require child support until the age of 18 regardless of whether the child is still in high school or not.
I would suggest contacting a local family law attorney to review your Child Support Order.
