In most cases child support ends at the age of majority, which in all but four states is 18. Alabama and Nebraska 19 and Mississippi and Pennsylvania 21. However, the support order issued by the court is the order that must be followed even if it is conflict with the state statutes pertaining to the issue at hand. Many child support orders include stipulations as to the child leaving the custodial parents home and responsibilities of the parents in regards to educational issues.

∙ 17y agoDepends.. If you are emancipated.. I'm not sure the court would grant you "child support"..But if you are not legally emancipated, then check your state's law book about the age of majority.. in some states (like Illinois) the legal age of "majority" (an adult) is 17 and I believe that you would no longer qualify for child support. * The minor would need to be granted an emancipation decree before he or she could legally leave parental custody. When emancipation is granted the minor becomes a legal adult and therefore is not eligible to receive child support. One of the requirements of being emancipated is that the minor is gainfully employed and capable of supporting themselves and conducting their personal and financial affairs without the intervention of other adults. FYI, the legal age of majority for Illinois is 18, the same as it is in all other US states with the exception of Nebraska where it is 19. The age at which a minor can be charged and tried as an adult for a criminal offense (or in rare cases in civil action) in Illinois is 17, this stipulation has no bearing on the age of majority (18).

∙ 14y agoIn most places, once a child reaches the age of 18, the parents are no longer responsible for the child. If there is a child support order that has the non-custodial parent continuing to pay support through college years, then that money is available to be used toward that education and the support associated with it.

If it does not provide that the support continue after the age of eighteen then you must return to court to notify the court that the child has attained eighteen years of age and ask that the child support order be terminated.

http://www.childcare.org/families/article_school-aged-home-alone.htm School Aged Children Home Alone? The decision to leave your child home alone is a very personal decision that needs to be made based on your feelings and experience with your child. Washington State does not have any laws or rules that say at what age a child can be left home alone. In general, children under 10 should not be left on their own, and babies and younger children should not be left alone even for a few minutes. Here are some questions to ask your self before you leave your child home alone. Does your child feel at all frightened or apprehensive about staying home alone? Does your child follow your instructions and your rules? Can you count on your child to tell you the truth? Can your child be counted on to stay clearheaded in an unexpected or emergency situation? Can you child calmly dial 911, give their full name (and yours), street address and phone number, and explain the situation? You might feel most comfortable starting out leaving your child alone for short periods of time. Go slowly and make sure that you and your child are comfortable with the situation.
