In Iowa they base a person child support off of their job but if the person does not have a job then they either back up to the last job if the person can still work a job like that or similar to that job. If all else fails, they at least base the support off of a 40 hour work week at minimum wage if the court believes that the person has no real reason why they can not have a job at that time. Maybe your lawyer will have a suggestion as to what the best way to proceed so you can get some sort of support.

You, Your son, Support, Bills, Day to day living...these are your important things to think about right? Try to stop thinking about being nice to your H and how he feels. He isn't thinking about being nice to you or what your feelings are.

There is a time to get mad and start fighting back. Now is that time, I think.
