What state is this and what does your child support orders say about it?

Indiana and it doesn't mention anything about age! I just got my child support lower from 372 to 162 but she found out I got a new job as of 8/29/11 and has already filed to have it raised. Its all about money with her! We have been divorced since 2008 and since then I go to court once a month over money with her!

Your attorney needs to make a motion to the court to end the child support on this child since he's 18. In some states like Ohio the child support continues until a judge ends it regardless of how old the child is. A lot of people in Ohio don't know that and keep paying for years when they don't have to.
What does your original child support order state about when child support ends for this child?
