Inheritance is separate property.
She will be ordered to pay you child support. Even if she does not work, she will be ordered to pay child support. If her separate property generates income, then her child support will be based on the income it generates. If it generates very little income, then her child support will probably be based on minimum wage based on a 40 hour work week which is approx. $205/month.
