I was divorced in Colorado and then moved to Ohio with my four children as a result of a military move. According to Colorado State law, child support is in force until age 19. We just had child support updated, in the state of Texas, four months ago. That court ruling enforced the Colorado emancipation age of 19.

Since that time, my18 year old daughter moved out of our house two months ago in defiance of our home rules. She engaged in a series of wreckless and dangerous behaviors and cut off all communication with us. Now she has contacted me to tell me that she is moving to Texas to live with her Dad.

When she moves to Texas will I be obligated to pay child support
 
Yes it sounds like Colorado has jurisdiction so you pay until 19. If you wanted child support until 19 whe you had custody, then the same applies to you if Dad gets custody.
