It is not always easy to know the legal labyrinth one may be drawn into, when trying to cover the expenses of raising a child. Especially when there is a certain geographical distance between the parents, with the children staying with one of them, which makes it even harder to be informed of the situation and any changes that may have occurred, and which may affect the child support which has been agreed upon.
There is also the difference depending on the children’s age. But the main factor is a child’s ability to legally receive the amount of money necessary for its upbringing.
Even though no minor is supposed to work, there may be changes in the financial situation of a child of which the parent paying the child support is not informed, and which would reduce the amount the latter would be obliged to pay.
Once the child has come of age, the law still obliges the parent to keep paying for the now adult, obviously depending on the child’s ability to work and take care of him or herself.
