You can always have the test done one more time...assuming the adult child would be willing.

You both might even convince mom to participate, for even more reliable results.

So, you are suggesting that in Ohio, a child support order can be established when the "child" is 25 years old where no order existed previously?

I am asking you to back up what you posted. You stated that child support can't be retroactive in Ohio. Back it up.
