This is govern by federal law, which states there's no statute of limits on collections. The only variation is on interest penalties, which can be substantial.

But in order to be emanicipated that child will need to A) Be out of school for 4 months and not be enrolled in college B) Have employment and be capable of supporting themselves C) not be under the control of either parent If the child is still in school like college you can have it modified through the court to help pay for educational needs.
