When is it too much to fight for continued child support beyond 18?

I received a letter of child support termination due to my son being emancipated upon graduation on June 1st of this year. I appealed that letter and took it higher to the master level hearing. I won the court case in front of the Master Judge arguing that my son has Aspergers and I was able to prove that he was not able to obtain “gainful employment”. I had his high school and also his doctors office backing me but only half of the information was used. My sons absent parent who only cared about not paying any more child support appealed my appeal and it went in front of the Judge. I got my letter today, the child support is DENIED and has been terminated. My domestic relations office told me that I was not permitted at the appeals hearing. If I wish to appeal the appeals appeal (so wrong) I will be on my own financially and I have to take this to the Superior Court level. Is this worth the fight? How hard should I advocate?
