Just looking for opinions, not a debate.
If a child (18 1/2 yrs) is not attending college, has a job making $11 an hour with a 401k, health benefits and paid vacation days..... should the parent whom he or she does not live with be paying support???? State law says until 21 but he/she is virtually self supporting. What do you think would happen in court???????????????????? Anyone have any experience with this kind of thing?
Technically the child is not living with dad but with grandparent in grandparents house. Dad happens to live there too.
My DS is that age exactly. He's in college, but I couldn't imagine him being ready to support himself fully at this age. Maybe if he was in the military or something, but not on $11 an hour. Even in the military at this age, he would be paid pittance.
