You have no right to do that. Child support is determined by a statuory algebraic formula which considers the parents' net incomes and how much time each spend with a child. You are not a parent, so not entitled. Under only limited circumstances is child support awarded after a child reaches majority and graduated from school- say 19 years old. Parents of an incapacitated child have an equal duty to provide for an adult child. Family Code § 3910.
