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.

      Bryce might be the most frustrating player we've ever had.

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's mostly me. I came into the season basically believing he was not ever going to be the guy but with a little bit of wait and see. It didn't take long of me seeing before I saw he was the same guy he has largely always been. Maybe in some future scenario 3-5 years from now he is confident enough to be a decent NFL QB. I don't really want to be the team waiting for that to happen. Let his 3rd, 4th, 5th or whatever team be the ones that figure it out.

      Naw let him get to Tampa and crack his old fragile body with Radsom or Trey M I’d love to see him get rocked by this raw defense. He’s a fool thinking he would leave us for greener pastures I’m glad it played out this way should’ve stayed loyal to the ones who really wanted you.

      And a legitimate question to ask is what does this offense look like once Bryce is off his rookie contract? How is that offensive line going to look? We have a ton of money invested up front and that is 100% unsustainable with Bryce making starting QB money. Icky and Moton are going to be 50m per season plus the guards at 32 and possibly Mays at 6-8 if we're lucky. Add in Bryce and that's 125m just on those 6 players if we tried to keep them all. It's just not doable.  So then the real question IMO becomes, if we spent the money on our OL, and less on a QB, would the outcome be that much different? I haven't seen Bryce elevate the offense enough by himself on a consistent basis to warrant the contract we would have to give him, not to mention the players we would have to give up, based on the accelerations of the bonuses as I understand them, would likely include Icky.
