re: Costner’s wife says he makes $19.5mm and she wants $250k/mth in child support

Think about what you are really saying here...and then picture that being a precedent for legal system/society as a whole

And the current way it is that screws the male over while the ex can sit at home not doing shite expecting to get $250k a month, is more fricked than removing a child from a poor mom who can't provide for it.

I get it.. The perception that she sits at home and he goes to work. Frankly though, that's been the arrangement in this case all along though. After nearly 20 yrs to say... I'm over you.... It sucks for you that you have no appreciable skills because you stayed home to raise the kids etc but now go find a job.
That's 1800s chattel mentality. 3MM a year against 20MM isn't especially crushing because I would imagine that he already spends a good amount of that on family life events.

If they were married a couple of years..no kids she gets all the clothes jewels and a good bye card

18yrs and kids... There is alimony due

Also to say that the wealthier of the two deserves the kids because they can afford the kids is a very bad precedent in my opinion.
