So, the question is....

Best info found says that only 10 states allow by law for child support orders for adult children beyond the age of 18 (even then, they have to meet the criteria). But of the other 40 states, 11 states have laws restricting it, and 7 others are silent on the issue while the other 22 states completely forbid it.

So, the question is this....

...of the 10 states that allow it and 11 states with restrictive laws about it, do any of them also force by law any married parents to pay and support children over the age of 18...

... and the answer is..

no

none of them.

So, why then - are divorced parents required to pay?

It really isn't about the kids. It's all about the $$$$ , isn't it.

Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.

But lets go one more step with it. If these young adults are being supported by a child support order, then why doesn't the CSE agencies pay this support to the child/young adult whom they are meant to support?

I'm just saying.
