Should mothers have to pay child support if the father has the kids majority of the time?

My husband has joint custody of his 2 girls with his ex, but he is the domiciliary parent with her having reasonable visitation. Since she left him and her kids 5 years ago she has not paid him anything, nor has she helped buy the girls school uniforms, supplies, or shoes. She didn’t even get them a gift for their birthday or christmas. She is a bartender so I know she doesn’t make a ton of money but I’ve worked in the same industry and tips can be pretty good. My husband makes quite a lot of money but we have 5 kids total and I feel she should take some responsibility for her kids too.Just this past year she started getting them every other weekend, before that she would go months without seeing them. I think he should take her to court but I’m concerned the judge may see how much my husband makes and how much she makes and say she shouldn’t pay anything. We live in Louisiana so I don’t know how the law is about that. Should we try to consult and attorney or just forget about it

How does the process of child support work?

My husband ran off almost 2 months ago. He has done this before. He is a video game and possible prescription drug addict and lives with his sisters ex husband, but also sees his mom alot. He doesn’t want to go to work and works a commission job. We have one 14 mo old son that he has seen once since he ran off. There is an online form for my state that I can fill out to request child support. If he doesnt have the money will they just not make him pay? He wont speak to me, should I warn him first?

When filling for bankruptcy is child support considered income?

In other words do they use child support against you as earned income? So they can say you make more monthly than what you really do.

Why do woman think they are getting back at you because you are paying child support?

Do they think they have control over you because you have to pay child support? I mean the money is for the kid, how is you getting back at me. Too many women out there think that a way to get back at a guy is through his wallet. Well if that is the case than every bill collector is getting back him.

how much alimony and child support should i ask for with 5 kids after 17 years as a full-time mom?

I’ve been married 17 years, have been a stay home mother of 5 kids, all 5 w/ A.D.H.D, and the youngest is also mildly autistic. Lots of school problems to solve (alone), and driving to distant Dr’s, therapists, etc. Our 4 year old is in an amazing autism preschool. I drive him (2 round trips) 85 miles a day, 4 days a week. The hubby makes 60,000/ yr. on paper, but does side jobs a few times a week. So maybe 150.00 extra per week. He’s a controlling guy who most days left me with no money at all to buy food or clothes etc., for the kids. The fridge was almost always empty.My teens started mooching off their friends, so i went to work about 10 hours a week to buy food. I just need to know how I’m gonna make ends meet with my kids. I can’t send them to daycare. I could, but it would cost more than i can earn. Their needs are a full time job that I’ve become good at over the years. I’ve stretched part time college out through the years and am a full time semester from an associates degree, at least. Any ideas on amounts of money i should expect monthly. I used the online calculator, but given the side work and special needs…and spousal support, it’s confusing. Referrals to attorneys who are very good at this would be appreciated.Thanks!
In Utah, where we live, the laws attempt to equalize the incomes of both homes. Remember, i was not given access to the money anyway.

If a mother remarries does the non-custodials child support change due to the mother having more income?

My boyfriend is divorced and his ex-wife just remarried. He is paying way to much in child support, so by her being remarried can his child support be reduced?

IS there anyway my boyfriend can stop paying child support?

I know that it sounds bad …but he hardly ever sees his kids due to his ex and he has 2. Well it takes nearly all his pay check which leaves me with having to pay most of the bills which is starting to stress me out.? So is there anyway he can get out of paying child support ..legally that is haha?
