To make all orders for support run until further
order of the court, except that orders for child support
run until terminate when the child
is turns eighteen years of age or
until when the child is married or
becomes self-supporting, as determined by the court, whichever
occurs first;, or without
further order, past the age of eighteen years if the
child is enrolled and still attending high school, not to exceed
high school graduation or the end of the school year after the
child reaches nineteen years of age, whichever is later; or in
accordance with a preexisting agreement or order to provide for
child support past the age of eighteen years; or in the
discretion of the court, to provide for child support past age
eighteen where when there are physical
or mental disabilities of the child or other exceptional
circumstances that warrant the continuation of child support
beyond age eighteen for as long as the physical or mental
disabilities or exceptional circumstances continue. When
child support is terminated due to the child turning eighteen
years of age, graduating from high school, or reaching the end
of the school year when the child is nineteen, no arrearage may
be incurred as to that child after the date of the child's
eighteenth birthday, the date of the child's graduation from
high school, or the last day of the school year when the child
is nineteen, whichever date terminated the child support
obligation."/
