The OP, according to her profile, lives in the US. Why does the father's responsibility depend on which state he lives in? I thought the support requirement was the same coast-to-coast...

 

Mr. Lucky

 

I just wanted to add - in my experience, most judges do not grant alimony to someone who is more than capable of working themselves. Now a days you need a really good reason to receive alimony; be it children, illness etc. If you are just a lazy husband, you most likely won't get a cent.

 

Hope you're doing well OP, and that you've figured things out.

 

 

 

 

Alimony and child support are two different things. And this is why the BH must be told so that if he does not want to stay married the OM has to be named the dad and has to pay child support.

What is the problem?

 

Stay with husband you don't respect and treat like crap. No

Tell FWB about kid and see what he wants. Yes

 

If FWB wants to be in the kids life. Great

If FWB does not want to be in kids life. Don't contact him or ask for child support. He was just a sperm donor.

I'm so glad and give you kudos for not punishing the baby...just my opinion.

 

Also the OM needs to be on the hook for the child even if he doesn't like it you play you pay.

 

You know there is no excuse for cheating even on dead beat H, tell both then you will know how to plan...tough I know but it must be done. I wish you the best and good luck.
