That depends on the language of the order for support and the laws of the State in which that order was entered. However, in general, child support continues to at least age 18, barring death, emancipation or adoption. Support often continues into adulthood for severely disabled children.

Not usually, but there are some cases in which you might. 1. Some states require the non-custodial parent to continue to pay child support if the child hasn't graduated high school and is still living with the custodial parent. 2. If the child is disabled, there is no cut off age for ending child support. The non-custodial parent will continue to owe child support for as long as the disabled child lives with the custodial parent.

The child support is paid to the parent, not the child, to pay for the expenses of the child. So as long as you have a roof over your head, food in your belly and clothes on your back my guess is that the child support is being used correctly.
