Have 2 kids, 14 and 11. I have custody of both. Ex-wife has decided she wants to be a nurse so she quit her high paying job and enrolled in school.

She petitioned the court to lower her child support. She was paying 575 a month.

The court lowered it to 55 a month.

This even after I could have petitioned 2 years ago to get it raised because they are now older and didnt.

55 a month for a teenager and a tween.

She can work but chooses not to. My brother broke his back and could not work for over a year. The judge, same judge, would not lower his child support.

It gets even worse.

When we went to trial the judge was being so nice to my ex and very rude to me. Kept asking me question on why I want to go back to school and not pay for my kids. I finally was able to tell her that it was my ex-wife that paid the support. She looked at me and said "oh, the mother is the one paying support." She immediately changed tone and told her how proud she was of her going to back to school to be a nurse.

Just wow.
