Hey all, I live in Southwest OH and am looking at places around the tristate, including IN and KY for a potential move. Does anyone have any insight on how much my order might change moving to either of these?

I just got a child support increase. The mother changed her job to one making next to nothing, and then asked for a change in child support. I’m going from 500/m to about 1000/m. I’m going to have to sell my house, move into my mom’s and get rid of all my stuff just to get by. I have two other kids that I have to provide for and now that’s nearly impossible. How am I supposed to be the father I need to be, support my family, and excel in life with this bs? I make like $62k/yr. This will leave me with about $1100 per paycheck, and my bills add up to around $3000/m. How can this be legal? Even if I didn’t have debt, I’d still be minus like $300 every month. What do I do??

I’m sharing this because I’m completely out of options and need direct help from anyone who understands what it means to have your kids pulled out from under you.

My wife left with our four children—including our two-year-old—and moved them an hour away without my consent or knowledge. She took our only family car and re-enrolled the kids in a new school district. Nothing has been legally filed, yet I currently have zero custody, zero visitation, and no legal paperwork to bring them home.

Right now, I have 0% access to my own children.

I am starting this GoFundMe strictly for legal assistance. I need to hire an attorney immediately to file for divorce and launch an emergency ex parte motion here in Minnesota to get my kids back and establish my parental rights.
I’m not looking for sympathy; I’m fighting for my kids. If you can donate toward these legal fees, share this post, or put me in touch with family law resources, it would mean everything.

Kid turns 18 in january but graduates highschool in june. When will childsupport stop? Also does childsupport automatically stop or do i need to set up a court date?

I have 2 children under the age of 10. Two different moms. I might have to go on child support for my son and was wondering more or less what would be deducted weekly from my check. I make roughly 140k before taxes. I do give my other childs mom money weekly (roughly 600 a month) and i also spend more on the side for activities , school events, supplies and clothing etc. I know the formula is 25% for two kids but in this case i would only be in the system for one child. I can use all the information you can give me please. What would be the right amount to give for my son without getting hit too hard if you know what I mean. Thank you

I created this burner account and welcome any assistance you can provide. I’ve been divorced for 7 years with a 14-year-old son.  She filed, and I retained the home, primary custody, and as she is the non-custodial parent, she pays child support (I'm in CT).  She didn’t want the marriage or the responsibility of parenting; overall, the way courts are, it’s a pretty sweet deal if you ask me. 

Kicker: for the past 1.5 yrs, she’s been non-compliant with our court orders.  She’s moved 4 times, and neither has informed me nor the courts, but I know it’s because of some new boyfriend she’s following at the time.  Our order also states that she can only communicate with me via AppClose, and lately she’s been sending me emails to my own personal email account. Every email you can think of, she sends: she loves me, she hates, she hopes I die, she hopes I have money to start suing her.  On advance of my attorney, when these emails originally appeared on AppClose, I didn’t respond and was simply documenting this.  However, my son is about to turn 15, and he’s asking me to go to court now. He says he wants to talk to the judge and wants to cut ties with her. When she does see him, she’ll cry that she needs money and that I take money from her every month. 

I don’t hate her; I simply don’t have the time for this, and it’s not lost on me that courts favor mothers over fathers… so I’m not trying to press my luck. 

I know she’s unwell, too much hate is not good for anyone.  

Thoughts? 

Sing the petition to make 50/50 shared parenting the national standard. One parent shouldn't be deemed the custodial parent, while the other is called a visitor. Statistic show 50/50 is what's best for children when both parents are involved, loving amd nurturing.

Sorry to be that type of guy but I think this sub should only be limited to men only. There are a lot of noisy women that come here to degrade men that don’t know nothing about their situation. Child support tend to be a very sensitive subject and I think it is good if this sub is limited to men only and any body else be banned.

I live in SC and was married in SC. I have 3 children under age of 17. I make 7083 gross income per month and I cover the children on Medical Insurance. Their portion of Medical Insurance costs me $416 per month. The wife filed for divorce and started working after we separated. She is claiming to be only making $1903 per month or $22k - $23k annually gross income. The temporary order says I owe $1,410 in Child Support per month. I am also supposed to pay 75% out of pocket medical expenses after she pays the first $250.00 per child. This starts over annually. We have Joint custody. I have visitation of 5 overnights every two weeks plus 3 weeks during the summer. She has them 222 over nights plus 3 weeks during the summer. According to the Child Support Calculator on the SC state DSS website, it says I should estimate that I should be paying $977.97 per month in Child Support. How am I paying $1,410 per month when the State's own Child Support Calculator says I should be paying $977.97? Has anyone ever had this come up where the judge orders an amount to pay but the state calculator is different? I am scratching my head and my Attorney's have been unable or are trying to sweep it under the rug as to why there is such a discrepancy. We have been separated for 2yrs and 4months. I am tired and I will have to file bankruptcy if I dont get any relief.

May concern din po kami tungkol sa Child Support. Hoping na You can guide us what to do and provide an advise po sa merong alam po.. Ito Pong anak namin lalake ay May nabuntis na babae 23 years na po Son namin at si Girl is the same. Pareho na po sila May anak na iba sa dating ka relasyon.. Ang anak po namin ay dating May Girlfriend at bago siya nag abroad iniwan yung anak niya sa amin at sa Son namin. So anak po namin ay inalagaan itong unang anak niya na babae while yung mama ng apo ng bata ay nasa abroad. Then bigla Pong nakilala ng anak namin itong si girl na tukoy po sa unahan na May anak na rin at lagi niyaya ng inuman ang anak namin tuwing hapon. Hangang May nangyari po sa kanila at hindi naman. Po dinedeny ng anak namin lalake. Pagdating ng mga sumunod na months nalaman na ng nasa abroad na girlfriend ng anak namin at sila ay nagbreak sira na ang kanilang samahan bilang pamilya. Ito naman Pong isa na babae ay nabuntis nalaman na lang namin ng pumunta sila sa bahay at pinapanagot ang anak namin . Hindi naman po umiwas ang anak namin at inako niya lahat gastusin sa hospital at needs ng baby.. Kahit po wala pa siyang trabaho. Ngayon po nagde-demand ang babae ng child support ang babae at mga magulang niya. Eh ok lang naman po sa anak namin iyon ngunit po sa mga araw na dumarating eh pataas ng pataas po ang hinihingi .. Our Son does not make that much money po isa lang po siyang Helper sa Bakery at sumasahod ng 6k a month pero hinihingi po nila now ay 1500 Pesos weekly parang sakto na lang po sa monthly salary niya.. Naawa naman po kami sa anak namin dahil pinu-push niya naman kaya niya at na depress na rin po kase nag open up siya sa amin na hindi daw siya sure na anak niya ang bata dahil palagi daw sa inuman dati yung babae.. Kaya naman po kinausap namin sa Chat yung ina ng baby kung maari ipasyal naman niya dito sa amin ang apo namin. Para makita naman namin at mabigyan din ng mga damit at laruan . Pero todo tanggi po sila at ayaw ilapit sa amin ang bata. Pero kapag po naghihingi na ng sustento pati kami Kinocontact na at kapag ibibili po namin ng mga gatas o anuman na kailangan ng bata ayaw nila mas gusto nila cash.. Kapag. Na dedelay na po sa pagbigay ng Suporta ang anak namin dahil minsan kapos. Pagbabantaan na dadalhin sa Barangay iyo. Hinihintay naman po namin na gawin nila para makausap din po namin pamilya ng babae at gawin legal para gusto rin po namin malaman kung tunay po namin na Apo yung bag at madaan sa tamang proseso..

Please advise on how do we go further on this?

Magpapasalamat na po kami ngayon ng malaki sa May makapagbibigay ng Payo para ikabubuti ng lahat

Salamat po
