DOES CHILD SUPPORT END WHEN THE CHILD IS 18?
My daughter will be 18 but she will be attending college and staying at home...Wouldnt this be specified on the modification decree? Im in Texas and most things are backward here... Thank you<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
My response:
In Texas, there is no provision in the law for continuing child support after age 18, even if the child goes on to college. However, the Texas courts will uphold a written agreement, or court order, to this effect. So, for all intents and purposes, notwithstanding a written agreement, child support ends at 18.
