[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I met my husband shortly after his divorce was finalized. 65% of his actual income went to his ex because they counted his work travel reimbursements as income. He lived in a one bedroom apartment and for his weekends, they spent them at his parent’s house since they had room. It was sad. And they would show up needing clothes or a jacket or new shoes. His ex moved into a nicer home while he struggled. I’m all about taking care of the kids as the priority in a divorce, but the child support calculations usually put men at a disadvantage. The kids don’t want to go to dad’s place because it’s a bachelor pad. The kids think dad doesn’t want them around since he doesn’t get a place large enough for the kids - not knowing that dad literally cannot afford a larger place. [/quote] My husband had roommates and could barely afford food. He had very little for himself. She got child support, alimony and extras while living with her ap. [/quote]
