Re: Child support = no place to live....
There's nothing more expensive than not having a lawyer.
Assuming the mother makes minimum wage or doesn't work, I calculate your support at $511 per month. If she pays day care and/or health insurance, then your child support would be more, so the amount you pay sounds about right. The numbers are what they are if they are correct, and the only thing you can do is find a better job or a second job. Kids come first.
You may want to sit down with a lawyer and make sure all the numbers that went into calculating support are correct.
