Amicable Divorce: Do I Still Have to Pay Child Support if Spouse Doesn’t Want It?

Currently separated for more than 10 years, would like to file for divorce, looking for fast and inexpensive, spouse and I have agreed not fighting for ANYTHING, however we have two daughters ages 17 who will be 18 in Jan 2010.

As ME the non custodial parent who unfortunately is current unemployed due to budget cuts, I still have to pay child support even if the other parent doesn’t need nor want it.

With the process of divorcing taking several months, if only a few months before the kids turning 18, am I sitll liable for this even the other parent and I are in agreement that we would help the other out? We’ve been doing ok all along, we just don’t want to be married! Please answer if you would.
