This issue should be solely based on his income. Why should his current wifes' higher income be a factor toward a higher support payment? It's not her repsonsiblity, it's his and yours. Generate a supplemental income, or reduce your expenses.

No-you shouldn't-its her money, not yours. Your a bit greedy, I think. Get on with your life-your separate now. Iam sorry, its a hard thing to say. If you need special needs help for the kids braces or tutoring etc. that would be good to ask them. Maybe you could share a house with another single mother-trade of babysitting and get a 2nd job. etc. I wish you the best.

why dont you try this crazy thing most people are doing its far out there but its called getting a job your on here so your not doing too bad if you can afford internet.....

Taking him to court would seem the best thing to do, but he will probably defend himself well given his successes.
-
If your child support is inadequate that is why you go back to court. Where the father comes up with the extra money isn't really the point. Nor is the point to go after more because his new wife can afford it.
-
if you marry a guy who has a good job can he pay less child support? You made the arrangement in court now you have to stick with it. you could try to get more but I wouldn't think a judge would take his wife's income into consideration.
-
sorry you are not entitled to any of the woman's money.
-
Child support is not based on a new wifes income.
-
WTF makes you even *THINK* you're entitled to someone else's money? Perhaps instead she should raise your kids if you're unable.
-
YES WHY NOT YOU NEED THE HELP IF HE IS MARRIED IT'S THERE INCOME AND WHEN IT COMES TO TAKING CARE OF A CHILD YOU CAN NEVER SPEND TOO MUCH MONEY TO CARE FOR YOUR CHILD YOU BETTER BELIEVE I WOULD AND I HAVE I DON'T CARE YOU ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE CARE AND DO FOR SOMEONE ELSE BEFORE YOUR CHILDREN I DON'T THINK SO!!!!!!!!!!
-
You cannot make a claim on his new wifes income only on your ex husbands.
-
You should find a good job to give your kids better support.
-
Get a Job!! And stop looking for a handout!

I agree with most of these people..Get a J-O-B!or send your kids to him.if you think he is living better.everyone struggles,and now i see why..greedy people like yourself.most mothers only take the fathers to court..just to prove they can get the kids(s) and milk the father of everything he has.then later on realizing they can't take care of the kids.because they won't get a job and they want to live off the father.like the mothers who get child support and the kid(s) don't even live with her.

I live in Canada and maybe it is different out here but in B.C child support is paid based on a chart of family income ...meaning that yes her income would effect the outcome of the child support greatly ...not that she would have to pay anything but that his cost of living is lowered and his quality of life has risen and his child should be able to live a sililar style of life quality to that of his father and step mother ...in fact in canada it doesnt even have to be his wife it can be a common law wife... once they have shared residence together for 6 months

Nope, you can't do that. your case reminds me of something I saw on TV, a women divorced her husband, he was a Captain in the Army. and due to the cost of divorce, and child support, he could not afford to continue to stay in the Army, so they kicked him out. she tried to sue and force him to go back in the Army. the military said that he was unable to stay in because of his sever financial obligations. if you have money problems in the military, they can kick you out!
