(2) has sufficient money for the child's own support;
(3) understands the consequences of being free from parental control and protection; and

(b) If the juvenile court partially or completely emancipates the child, the court shall specify the terms of the emancipation, which may include the following:

(1) Suspension of the parent's or guardian's duty to support the child. In this case the judgment of emancipation supersedes the support order of a court.

(7) Empowering the child to own property.


(c) An emancipated child remains subject to the following:

(1) IC 20-8.1-3 concerning compulsory school attendance.
(2) The continuing jurisdiction of the court.

21 years old is an adult so why would you need to emancipate them?

For child support yes 21 is when they are emancipted and support should end at that point.

Oh yeah they are informing you that since the 'child' is 21 now the payments will now be .00
I was thinking you wanted to get emancipated primarily.
