=== What does the law say about support of children when parents separate === | === What does the law say about support of children when parents separate? === | ||
When you separate from the other parent, your child has a legal right to receive support from each of you until your child turns 19 years old. If your child is still dependent after turning 19 – for example, because the child is disabled or still in school – your child may still have the right to continued support. This can last for as long as the child remains dependent. | When you separate from the other parent, your child has a legal right to receive support from each of you until your child turns 19 years old.
