My friend is in medical school (first year). Can a court order him to quit school and get a job in order to pay child support when he divorces his wife?

Nah. The kids don't need to eat, wear clothes or have a roof over their heads while he's in school.

(edit) Okay, that was pretty sarcastic. But really - he has to support his kids. Both of them do.
