Contact your local child support enforcement agency or Google their webpage to get the percentage facts. In my state, it's 17% of income for one child, 25% for two children. It doesn't matter how much or how little he makes, they always set the amount using the guidelines. I'd get going on getting an order established soon before he breaks his leg or something and can't play anymore.

If the custodial parent two children give one of the children back to the father does the father still have to pay child support for the one child that stayed with the mother or are they even?

No, the father has to pay child support for both children. Of course the child that decides to live with him will be treated as he/she were when you were both married, but the child you have will still continue to receive child support by law!

Should a mother of four children who leaves and takes no part in the children's lives and refuses to pay child support be allowed to have more children?

Maybe the mother can only afford the ones she has now but the father can suppport the children she left behind for a better well-being. But it still does not give the mother the authority to leave the children. They still deserve the mother and father both togehter or a mother role model in the children's life. The new child should have the best life possible!! * From a moral standpoint, absolutely not. She has demonstrated her lack of concern for her children's emotional and physical welfare and therefore having more children would be immoral and irresponsible. From a legal standpoint, both parents are responsible for the financial care of their biological children. If the father and/or the state pursue child abandonment and/or non support charges she could be arrested, stand trial and be incarcerated and/or fined she would definitely be ordered by the court to financially support her children.


If the father is paying child support to the mother and the child is living with the father. does he still pay child support?

This depends on a couple of things, the state you are in and what your court order says. If the child is living full time with one parent it is the other parent who pays child support. However, if the child is living with the father for the summer (summer possession) the father will still continue to pay the mother child support even though the child temporarily is living with the father. The reason for this is the mother still has bills that are keeping the house and such for the child to come back too. The only way a father will not have to pay is if the court order says that during summer possession the father does not have to pay child support, but normally in this case the mother would not be obligated to pay child support to the father. However in the end, people should do what is best for the children and not worry about the dollars they receive or don't receive.
