How do i deduct my 18 year full time high school child

Your 18 year old chid can still be claimed as a dependent .  You lost the Child tax credit when she turned 17, but she can still be claimed as a dependent for the personal exemption of $4050 that lowers the amount of income you are taxed on.  And you can still get EIC if you qualify.
