More details to this question:
My daughter is 16 and wants to move out. I am okay with it as long as she stays in school and is going to support herself (she does have a job and a friend that is her age that wants to move out with her) but her father and I are divorced and he is not ready to let her leave.

Your obligation stops at 21 and 18 is the age where support stops unless the child is in school or disabled. If she wants to be on her own go to court to have her declared an adult.
