[quote]Everyone here is concentrating on what you have each month after you pay your rent and child support costs. What I noticed is that your ex is making 75k a year and you're making approximately 45k. What I'm trying to figure out is why you're paying child support when she's making 30k more than you a year? This just doesn't make sense to me, but everyone else wants to focus on the fact that you want a few extra bucks when you already have 1500 each month.

I'm not sure about anyone else but I know that what he hasn't said anything about are all his other expenses. Such as electricity, phone, water, etc. Not to mention that this person may still be paying off college loans. Since they didn't mention ALL their expenses, let's focus on what they DID mention, which is the disparity of the incomes. [/quote]

It all depends on how the state calculates child support. If it isn't an income share state, then her income doesn't matter at all. Nor does his parenting time.
