I don't know enough about the child support system to give a good answer to that.


I would, however, eliminate alimony in all but the most extreme of circumstances. Alimony is complete outdated bull shit.

while there are things to change about alimony i wouldn't say it's outdated. you make life decisions together. i'll take care of the kids and you get your masters. 15 years later one spouse can make bank the other would be destitute with no real work experience because of decisions they made together.



Like I said, I wouldn't eliminate it entirely. But it's complete insanity in it's current form. The fact that you can get stuck paying a woman monthly payments for the rest of your life just because you were married is completely ridiculous.

She should get her fair share of what they've built together. Doesn't mean he should have to pay her for the rest of their lives. they could be in their mid 30s after 15 years of marriage, meaning that guy could be stuck paying this woman for the next 40 years or more. that's rediculous.

It actually is harder to get alimony these days, especially if both work. Basically one party has to be bringing in all or the vast majority of the income for alimony to be awarded.
