(b) The court may not subtract the needs of a spouse, or of a dependent of a spouse, from the net resources of the obligor or obligee. Added by Acts 1995, 74th Leg., ch. 20, § 1, eff.

Does child support stop when the mother gets married?

The purpose of child support is to support your child. Whatever else you do in your life has nothing to do with your responsibility to your child. If you have children with your new spouse - you still have to support your child from the former marriage. None of this is about YOU. It's about your child and his needs - and believe me, no judge is going to care how much added responsibility you've taken on.
