When did you become responsible for the care and support of your children? Like at birth, maybe? You are not divorcing your kids and you have a responsibility to them regardless of what is going on with you and your spouse. Once legal action is taken and you are ordered by the court to pay - make sure you pay thru the court system - not directly to your spouse. It is proof that you are meeting your legal obligation. Doesn't mean you can't give more, but CYA on the ordered amount. ==A Different Perspective== If you are out of the house and the children are in the daily care and custody of the other parent then you should be helping with the expenses until an order is in place. Make certain you pay by check to have proof that you have been paying. Generally, unless there is state involvement in paying some sort of benefits to the children, you will not be making payments through the court system. If the custodial parent and you are both supporting the children, just make certain you make your court-ordered payments by check and keep a record of those checks as proof you are making your payments.

She is legally responsible for the support of the child no matter where she is in this world. I suggest you return to court and ask for support. If you're on food stamps, you signed a waiver on child support. They will file against her. see link below
