IMHO, if you split custody 50/50 (was that court ordered?) then you should both be in charge of supporting your kid yourself. If she had sole custody and you only had visitation, yes you'd owe her support. But if you are both equally taking care of the child, then I don't see why you're giving her money at all. If the roles were reversed and you made a lot more money than her, no one in their right mind would expect her to give you money. Speak to a lawyer if it's a financial issue for you. If not, keep paying.

250$ is like nothing for child support.  Don’t be a deadbeat…pay her this tiny amount and stop complaining about it

Wow. He's not being a deadbeat. When he has 50% custody, everything he does for his child comes out of his own pocket. Just as everything she does should come out of her pocket. Why is she getting extra money when they split custody equally?

He said The 250 is specifically for health insurance and medication.  Do you think the child only uses the medication when with the mom and can't get hurt or sick when in his care?

I'd talk to a lawyer.   If what you say is true about your income vs hers, you might find that you don't have to pay shiz.

There's this misconception that the father always has to pay the mother, and in most cases that holds true. However, the idea of child support is so that the children don't have a drastically different life in one house vs the other.  Talk to a lawyer my boy.  Good luck with it all either way.

You could also take a look at the child support worksheets.  I imagine that was already mentioned here, but I didn't read all the comments.

You know, as much as I raised a ruckus earlier, I also completely missed this part - My apologies and I agree. Since this is directly towards half of the insurance cost, then yes, there's absolutely no reason this shouldn't be paid to her.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I saw an interesting point the other day about our type of situation.  It could have been wise to hold him off for 1-2 weeks, but that would not have anything to do with Bryce and you could easily communicate that from a PR standpoint.   Why? Well, we just brought an entirely new staff into town, new offense for the returning OL, and had wholesale turnover elsewhere.  So just run Dalton out there the first game or so to see how things are shaking out.  Dry run to make sure we won't kill the kid.  We weren't eyeing the SB.  Get a sense of the line, the receivers, the playbook.  It gives you a glimpse of what Bryce would be stepping into and a good barometer on where things stood sans him.  I suppose we sort of did that with Dalton, but that was a reactive switch and like @Ricky Spanish mentioned, it was against an injured SEA defense where we threw a ridiculous amount.  Who knows, maybe we could have at least won a game or two more that way.  You can adjustments prior to Bryce stepping in, better tee it up for him, and maybe we end up winning game 1 or 2. Last year was such a sh*tshow.  One of the worst seasons I've ever experienced in any sport for any team.  Absolutely nothing made sense together.  Happy we cut the cord early, but should have never hired that crew in the first place.

      Johnson is gonna want $20M+ next year. That's why they should have drafted Ladd.

      It's like folk didn't even watch the game. Dalton took a beating, and barely avoided a lot more violent hits. No 35 years old QB is going to survive a season like that. Imagine him against Dallas or Houston or Indy or Detroit or New Orleans twice! He played better than Bryce in that 1 game, but he wouldn't have lasted half the season.
