Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
My wife is being sued for child support. My wife has 6 children, 4 boys in her custody and 2 girls in the custody of a relative care giver.
The court ordered the ex husband to pay both my wife and the care giver child support, but the court did not obligate my wife to pay anything. We still are raising 2 of the boys and the care giver is requesting child support for 1 of the girls who is turning 17. Is my wife responsible to pay child support in the state of Texas?

If the child is hers and the child lives in TX, then your wife can be ordered to pay child support.
