Read that first paragraph, and after you've wiped the tears out of your
eyes, feel free to respond.

The statement is (to be polite) total nonsense.

The issue is not whether parents could become bankrupt by paying college
support. The issue is whether state legislatures have created laws granting
the courts the authority to order college age child support.

Only four states have post-secondary education CS laws. They are Colorado,
Indiana, Iowa, and Oregon. Oregon is unique because that state allows the
CS to be paid directly to the post-18 adult child attending school. The
other three states allow the court to decide whether the support is paid to
the college or the child.

The District of Columbia, Indiana, Mississippi, and New York do not
terminate CS until age 21. Those states allow ongoing CS without the
requirement for the child to be attending post-secondary schooling.
