[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is an obligation to support your kids in DC until 21 --- the exact details of that obligation are unclear, but there is one.[/quote] There is someone who always posts this information. It is not true. In DC the age of majority is 18 and at that point, there is no legal obligation to support the child. That may differ in the event of incapacity. In Maryland, on the other hand, the child has a right to continue receiving support to the earlier of their 19th birthday or high school graduation. Also, in MD there is a duty to support a destitute adult child if you have the means - applies in the case of physical or mental condition that prevents self support.[/quote]
