But Haraldson, born and raised in South Dakota, was living in Canada at the time of his divorce. There, child support laws can go on indefinitely, unless he hires a lawyer and fights.

Indefiniately? His son is 22. Does he continue to pay until his son is 30? 40? Does he pay his son's retirement?

Where does it stop?

“Where does it stop?”
