Legal Question in Family Law in California
Child Support
My girlfriend and I seperated in January 2007 after 6yrs. We have a 2yr old girl, and a 5yr old son. I have my kids 40% of the time. My son just started privite school this year. My daughter goes to daycare. My half of both equal $944 month. She makes $57k yr, and I make $72K yr. Currently I dont pay child support, would it be less for me to pay her support or school/daycare costs.

Re: Child Support
Keep in mind that you could be ordered to pay child support AND one-half of day care. So maybe you should just pay for one-half of the day care, since you each have the kids almost 50% of the time, each.
