I thought child support payments would continue to age 18? But I also heard that you would continue to pay as long as child in high school? I don't believe going to school includes college. We are going through a similar situation. My husbands son has lived with us for 4 years full time, and because of a falling out and his rude beahaviour and disrespect we sent him back to this mothers. Now the mother is asking for money for him, yet she never gave us a dime for him the entire time he was with us, but she only started giving a small amount monthly of $60. For his bus fair. So in fairness, my husband has said that's what he will give her for him. So she has asked if he was going to buy his son clothes or school supplies etc.. My husband said no, she immediately said that they may have to go to court then.Again she is trying to threaten. The child is almost 18 and in grade 12. DO you know if she took him to court, would he have to pay? And if so, till 18? Or finish school? ALSO, we never asked her for a dime, she never helped us put a roof over his head, food etc, notning other than $60 month only for year. If she tries to take him to court, can we not tell the court or the judge that he has lived with us for x amount of years full time, and we got nothing from her, and tell them that she should have paid us money for the 4 yearrs? I am going to see lawyer advice, as I don't think this is right, any replies are appreicated.thanks . Cindy
