[quote]A minor is emancipated at age 18 because it is no longer a minor but an adult. An emancipated minor must be under 18 or incapacitated by physical or mental handicaps ( over 18) or be recognized as emancipated ( i.e sole parent of own child& /or self supporting) if under 18. Pm me if you want - I worked in family court for ages... [/quote]
In NJ, child support goes through college as long as the child is enrolled full-time (and if the psa states part-time, then even if part-time), with a max age of 23. This is on top of paying a portion of the college costs.
