My question is: My father has stopped paying for any of my expenses after he got a divorce from my mother claiming that it is not his duty to pay any money to cover any of my expenses since I have a job. And since 10 months I have not received any money from him. Please note that I am also not married. So I would like to know if indeed it is his right to stop covering my expenses just because I have a job or is he still obliged to pay for my living expenses until I get married? Thank you
