Hello yahoo. The more and more i find out about how the law works really irritates me. I have a split custody with my x. I have our son and she has our daughter. We have alternative visitation time the weekends. I have been exercising my visitation but my x is not. She doesn't care about our son. She never phone or come visit. Anyway, i found out a few weeks ago that the county is trying to make me pay child support! It appears that my x has not been working for more than 2 years and have been collecting cash aid from the county. Background information about my x. She has always been a loser. She never graduated from high school. Never can keep a job. Still lives with her mom at age 28. And now on cash aid! Since we split up a little more than 2 years she has not been working and just collecting cash aid! You can not blame the economy. She is just darn lazy!. Since she is collecting cash aid, the county wants that back from me!?? I want to take full custody of both our children but the mediator said they can't just change custody without fact that my x is an unfit parent. She is a bad role model for my daughter. What can i do? Just suck it up and pay child support?How can this be? Why do i have to pay for child support on a split custody arrangement?the money is for ur child!!! i can't believe u would resent that! u have a child it costs money! pay up or be a shitty parents. its ur choice!How can this be? Why do i have to pay for child support on a split custody arrangement?Get a lawyer %26amp; ask if you can fight it based on the facts you stated.
Does the county really want you to pay it for the cash aid she is getting?
If so, that sounds strange.How can this be? Why do i have to pay for child support on a split custody arrangement?because your ex is getting aid, the court will attempt to get you pay child support, about the only thing you can do is go after child support for your son. This should cause it to come out even in the case. If not you will have to pay.How can this be? Why do i have to pay for child support on a split custody arrangement?Child support laws are going to vary based on the state. The basic premise of the law is that child support is about the kid, not the mother, and in any divorced couple where the man makes significantly more money the state will exact support out of him. As far as child support goes, the state doesn't care how lazy your wife is, it only cares that you provide for your daughter.
Getting full custody would solve this problem, obviously. You probably need to talk to an attorney if you want to get full custody of your daughter, thought that probably won't be cheap. But because laws vary by state, and details of your situation are likely important, your best bet is consulting with an expert.How can this be? Why do i have to pay for child support on a split custody arrangement?Seek proper legal advice and get a court ordered custody arrangement
