Soon to be ex-wife allowed 15 yr old son drop out of school Will this affect child support payments in NC?

Child support terminates when the child is emancipated or reaches the age of 18, whichever occurs first, except: if the child is still in primary or secondary school when the child reaches age 18, support payments shall continue until the child graduates, otherwise ceases to attend school on a regular basis, fails to make satisfactory academic progress towards graduation, or reaches age 20, whichever comes first, unless the court in its discretion orders that payments cease at age 18 or prior to high school graduation.
