What makes you think that since your finances have changed, you're no longer responsible to help care for the child you made! You think it's as easy as that? Oh, I don't have the money, so I guess that means my child won't eat, or have clothing, or a roof over her head. I bet you have the money to feed yourself, pay for internet, pay for new clothes, have a home.
Hopefully your wife's financial situation doesn't change, otherwise your daughter is screwed. But you see, your wife has no choice, she has to make sure your daughter is cared for, so with or without your help, she does it. You have that choice too, and it shouldn't be an option whether you pay, because your child has no options, she relies on her parents, and you're one of those parents!
Buck up and take care of the child you created! Be a man!
