You need to contact your attorney and have him/her go over the conditions described in the original court order. It is probably the case that you have fulfilled those conditions by now.

That is not a sure thing, though. In some cases, so long as the child is living at home and attending college, you have an obligation. In other cases, you do not, but can stop at 18.

Given how much this can vary, you must have your attorney go over your own court orders. Do not stop paying until he or a court says you can, or you could get into trouble.
