How much could she get?

[blackbible]

I'm in debit with credit card bills and I owe the IRS a very large amount of money on top of that I’m trying to go to school plus I pay rent in nyc. My job doesn’t pay much. And now my bitter Baby Mamma wants child support just to make it hard on me. My question is Can see get much? Let’s say I make 700 biweekly. BTW I do help her when I’m able. Truth is she’s bitter because I moved on in my life. I’m a good man with a good woman now. She had the baby just to be spiteful, but I accepted my child anyway.

Yeah, its sad when the BM's use money just to be spiteful. C/S varies from state to state. I can tell you the state I live (in the south) doesn't take into consideration your debts - only how much you make. You may be able to find a c/s worksheet online. They don't just pull a number outta the air - or let the BM's make the call - its based on what you earn. With the numbers you gave - she may be able to get a much as $300 a month (that's a guess based on what we've just went thru).

First blackbible I would like to commend you for seeking help in your situation because some men don't. Also, you may want to consider refraining from saying that she had the baby to be spiteful to you because ultimately you helped that a whole lot unless I missed your thread post with you explaining that she came in and stole some sperm with a turkey baster, but if you laid down with her (as much as you may regret it now) you created the risk of whatever comes along with the good 'ol booty nights. Hopefully, you don't say that to her because that will only add flame to the fire, which she is already trying to create. Like wbmama said they do go by your current earnings and they don't take your other financial debts into consideration most of the time unless you have another child that you are caring for or paying child support for already. Consider reading the end of BMD: Keeping it out of your life and marriage (well read the whole book it is great-you and your new lady) by Aleisha Gallion and she has a whole chapter dedicated to father's rights and cs procedures. Check it out! Hope this helps and I wish you the best. Just focus on being a good father because at this point that is what matters in that crazy situation just be caution in your way of handling it.

BOTTOM LINE IS YOU LAY....YOU PAY.....NUFF SAID.

I'd say she can get about 250 they have calculates online google childsupport calculator in NY. It will calculate the amount on money she should be allowed to get based on yours and hers income.

Best of luck!!

Sorry

[blackbible]

look I don't wont to get into the details but trust me, She set a trap and I fell into it. She is alittle on the crazy side. Look i love my daughter but her mother is trying to make my life a living hell. just because i have a woman I love in my life now.

[blackbible]

I love my Daughter. also I've been there for my child
She only started doing this when she met my New Woman to whom I love.

[blackbible]

I tryed to friends with her for the benifit of our child. we work out a deal that was fair. so we didn't have to go to the courts.

[wbmama]

same happened to my DH - had a deal - he was paying - she got pissed - took him to court and got $50 more a month.

Sorry to hear you're going through it, perhaps as time passes things will get better for your child. In the state of NY the non-custodial parent is obligated to pay child support through the age of 21. The percentage for one child is 17% of the combined income of both parents, less deductions and taxes. Of course depends on what part of New York you're in because of the taxes for Yonkers and NYC are different. You may also be asked to pay for medical insurance.

I would contact their office directly for your rights, etc.

[nomoredrama]

CS may take into account car payment, rent, and any medical bills you have relating to the child. CS also may take into account any children that you had prior to, and maybe even after, this child was born. If you are providing health insurance for the child, the cost of the health insurance may also be deducted from your gross income. Here is a link for a NYC child support calculator that you may want to try: www.alllaw.com/calculators/childsupport/new_york/

I am in agreement with lovejones08. Please do not keep saying that mother got pregnant out of spite. Even if the relationship was on its way out, both you & the BM made the conscious act of sex. But, it is irrelevant how and why she got pregnant. Focus on the here and now. What is here is the child that must be supported.

[angelnmo]

Blackbible, I feel your pain. I know what you mean by "she got pregnant out of spite". I think that when two people who have been together for a while agree that they dont want children, then the woman purposely gets pregnant (knowing that both of them had agreed to not have children), it is out of spite, or to keep the man. Contrary to what some people think, there are still some women out there who still hold onto that archaic idea that a baby will keep a man when he is ready to get out of the relationship. Just like there are still some wives out there that think that a new baby will repair a damaged marriage. Alot of times these types of women make a conscious decision to purposely get pregnant by getting off birth control and not telling the man (I guess men can't even trust a woman they have been with for years), using defective condoms, etc. So again blackbible, I know your situation.

[BADCHICK]

I don't where you all are from but where I from.....women have babies if their being slick to get money......not to keep a man...unless their silly. If a woman is not getting a least $600.00 a month. She wasted her time.

[angelnmo]

You are right. Most of the time some women purposely get pregnant for men who make lots of money, like pro athletes and singers. But where I'm from, there are still those misguided females who either get pregnant to keep a man (hoping he thinks it's "cheaper to keep her"), or they just want a little something from the man to remember him by. Sounds silly, but it still happens where i'm from.

[angelnmo]

Of course, I come from an area where both men and women think that once you have a child with someone, the man has a coochie coupon that he can cash in on at any time. And the woman thinks that she has an American D$#k card with no expiration date. Go figure. You would think that they would have learned a lesson by now.
