This depends on a couple of things, the state you are in and what your court order says.
If the child is living full time with one parent it is the other parent who pays child support. However, if the child is living with the father for the summer (summer possession) the father will still continue to pay the mother child support even though the child temporarily is living with the father. The reason for this is the mother still has bills that are keeping the house and such for the child to come back too.
The only way a father will not have to pay is if the court order says that during summer possession the father does not have to pay child support, but normally in this case the mother would not be obligated to pay child support to the father.
However in the end, people should do what is best for the children and not worry about the dollars they receive or don't receive.

In louisiana does a father still have to pay child support if the child is 18 years old in high school but does not still live with the mother?
Yes. You are not paying for the mother, you are paying for the child. If that were the case, children living on college campuses whose custodial parent has an extended modification to child support granted or are attending boarding school would not be able to collect support. If the child is living elsewhere without permission of the court and/or if that move would constitute legal emancipation as outlined by your state's laws, you do have the right to file for modification of child support based on the same.
