The duty of child support:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A) Child support is typically required until the child reaches the age of majority, which is usually 18 years old.
B) Child support may be required until the child is emancipated, which means that the child has legally separated from their parents and can support themselves.
C) In certain cases, such as when the child is disabled and unable to support themselves, child support may be required even beyond the age of majority. Therefore, all of the above choices are correct. Child support exists in most cases until the child reaches the age of majority, which varies by state but is typically 18-21 years old. However, it can also exist until the child is emancipated, which can happen earlier if the child gets married, joins the military, or becomes self-supporting. In addition, child support can sometimes continue beyond the age of majority if the child has a disability that prevents them from becoming self-supporting. Therefore, all of the above options (A, B, and C) are correct.
