Interesting statistics on child support

The good news is that it seems there's a trend toward closing that gap in some areas. The bad news is that it's still one huge fucking gap.

Funny that this was posted today as this morning I had another hearing in front of the judge to reconsider his denial of my motion that my ex should pay some of my legal bills. He said "No". I'm an unemployed, full-time student (which means I'm living on student loans now that my savings were destroyed in the litigation) who was awarded primary custody, yet the judge imputed $35,000/year in income for me (though I was earning six-figures up until three years ago my total income for those past three years has been $11,000), denied my motion for relief of my legal fees (~$40,000), ordered my ex to pay $900/mo. in CS though she earns over $120,000/year, and ordered me to pay a part of her travel expenses when she visits our child.

Let's all play a game and guess how those figures would have been worked out if my ex's and my roles were reversed... Hmmm... :)

I call this "progressive but not fair".
