Legal Question in Family Law in California

Child Support and Custody

My girlfriend and I seperated in January of 2007. We have a 2 yr old girl, and a 5 yr old boy. my son just started privite Kindergarten in August, 2007. My daughter goes to pre-school. My half of the schools tuition is $944.00 month. My girlfriend makes $57,000 yr, and I make $72,000 yr. I have the kids 40% of the time, she has 60%. Would it be cheaper for me to pay child support or tuition?
