$255/month

If he were working part time after school, and the mom were, too -- he'd be expected to contribute just $100 a month.
[/quote]In that scenario the family will be living off welfare
i.e. subsidised housing, vouchers for day care
But if there is a way, welfare checks will stop because of the family support.
Law is on the side of the child. A baby must get the bare bones needed for survival. That means at least $1000 per month for day care, $300 for formula, medical expenses etc
Money must come from somewhere
A rich kid will have his father pay for his college, that means he can take out another $15K per year as school loans to support his kid
Why are you so opposed to the father being made to bear his share of the costs?[/quote]
