The judge didn't give it to him?
Both him and the ex work and make good money but he didn't get the kids

I pay almost $1,000 per month plus other odds and ends. It’s definitely a dagger.
1 kid?
Is it based on a % of your income?

I heard in AL, the most is 50% of your check. May be wrong.

In Mississippi, the general rule of thumb is that a parent will usually pay between 14 percent of their adjusted gross income for one child and up to 26 percent for six or more children.

When I first met my husband he had 1 week on one week off co-dom, I think hey wasn't even paying 200 dollars a month.
Then she went crazy and didn't want nothing to do with her kid for 7 years. She was suppose to contribute 400 or so dollars a month, never seen it. And no matter how many times she was brought to court they never did anything to her.
Now, she has been back and stable for about 3ish years and they have a agreement for 50/50 custody. No child support for either of them.

Yep 1 kid. In Louisiana it is a formula they calculate where they take you and your wife’s combined gross salaries. Then they figure out what you each owe monthly based on who makes more money.

I gave up all the cash we had
I kept the house
I agreed to pay all education expenses including room and board
no child support or alimony
every Wednesday and every other weekend
not writing a check every month is the only way I stayed sane

She works, but she doesn’t pay debts obviously. It goes up about 1k a month and whenever she causes problems I get her half of the private school tuition and additional expenses added to the arrears.
My situation is very similar to yours and my daughter is getting to be grown up now so I can tell you that whatever funds, debts, or assets you lost during this time that you will be paid back in SPADES when your child is older and looks to you and you alone for advice, love, and discipline. I made a somewhat reckless decision many years ago when we were jousting basically assuring me to be broke and starting from scratch again, but I knew at the agreement's core that it also insured me to be who I am now to my daughter and for her and I have to tell you it is worth any amount of money. It really is everything in the world to know for a 100% fact, that your kid or kids know you dug the ditches in their upbringing metaphorically, and then they treat you as such the rest of your life. Good luck brother and Congrats

I don’t have any personal experience with child support but I once had a friend I worked with that told a judge to get the cell ready before he paid that cheating bitch a dime, the judge listened and he spent several months in a Parish jail before things were worked out.

Did you use a mediator?
Not at all. In fact, she hired a different attorney that didn't have the experience or connections in the judicial district her previous one had and they just agreed to what my attorney and I proposed to settle community property.
Most likely because it had dragged on for two years and she wanted her own house. Not to say we didn't fight it. There were bogus claims of back child support and me not being able to at least claim one kid on taxes which was resolved as well.

That prob isn't exactly how it is in AL. Not everyone gets a "check" every two weeks or week etc. The most they can get is exactly 50% of your wealth which in many cases is just your annual income or "check". I know many dudes who pay more than 50% of what they make in a month to the ex.

Appreciate the kind words. I went through about 300k in legal fees and the shite I went through would make a lifetime movie look like a Disney cartoon, but it was all 100% worth it. Money comes and goes, but my relationship with my daughter is what makes this world worth a damn.

And I thank her for it. I was too stubborn to admit I was in a loveless, sexless marriage that made me miserable because I was unwanted. But I never would have left. I’d have just stayed in a stupor and worked until one day I said frick it and are one. All I was good for was a paycheck. It hurt, sure, but she set me free and probably saved me from myself. I had dark dark thoughts during those
days.
Only honest answer here by far!

I find it's cheaper to keep her

It takes a lot of healing to be honest with yourself. I was bitter for a long time but eventually I realized that it was just poison.
It was a kinder cruelty she did me. Because I never would have had the fortitude to leave on my own.
No Chidren-the mountain goats
I remember listening to this song over and Over and feeling it in my bones. That resignation to a miserable fate.
She killed the man I was and in doing so allowed me to be reborn, a Phoenix from the ashes. I fixed things in myself and rebuilt my entire psyche, with hard won knowledge.
And now we have a good working relationship and do the best we can for our kids. It’s all I can ask.

My husband pays over $1K a month for 1 child. She lives in another state so we get her most all summer and almost every time she has time off from school. (Thankful the ex is good about this)
The ex got to keep the house and was supposed to sign the rental over to my husband.
Here we are almost 6 years after their judgment and the mortgage is still in his name. She averages paying it 25-29 days past due. And the rental property still hasn’t been quitclaimed to him so she’s collecting the rent money also.
On the flip side- my 2 children get $800. We did go through the state but their dad and I talked about it before hand and worked out what he could afford to pay so I took much less than what the court decided on. I don’t ask him to pay anything extra bc at this point right now I can afford for him not too. He gets them every other weekend and any other time they want to go if we can work it out with his work schedule.
