How does the court work out the child maintenance? In Canada, it is calculated according to what each parent is earning. How can they allow one parent become almost destitute, while the other is still taking? It truly boggles my mind. I think all who are thinking of leaving their spouse with their children, and live in Kansas .... MOVE to another, mom friendly state ... NOW.

Is there a possibility that you could move nearer to where your XH and S live? Especially, if you can get a better job? I cannot see the court opposing that kind of move.

Take care of yourself and your daughter! I truly think things will resolve themselves once your son turns 18. Although, your XH will probably come after your D, which is why I suggest you move closer, or to a more just state.
