Here's my situation I had my first daughter when I was 16. Well my mom said I could keep on going to school and she would watch her. Later on when I was 17 is when we started to have family problems so I wanted to move and take my daughter but I was so confused my mom yelled at me so I left her. Within a month or two I was so angry my mom would make me suffer and I felt so bad so I went back for my daughter. I took her with me and my mom decided to take me to court my daughter cried so much for her since she knows my mom more. So when we went to court I felt so bad for my daughter that I gave my mom custody. We had an agreement that I would go and see her with no problem since I'm not working. Now she decided to take me to court for child support. But my question is since I'm married would the judge make my husband pay it even if he's not my daughters father?
Please help me I'm confused

No, but your family income may be included in the calculation.

Well, if the girl isn't his and he doesn't want to pay for her he doesn't have to but if he is a good husband he would, and if you guys are divorced he still doesn't have to unless he wants to or if she is his real daughter

At the age of 13 what could you possibly know about family law? Can you cite your sources?

The legal forum is not for children to guess, or post their opinion. You need facts here, and they have to be accurate.

It's really best for you to stick to forums where you have some expertise, like the teen forum, since you are a teen. But here you have to know your stuff, not just type what you think the answer is.

Being 13 doesn't mean you can't have knowledge or be able to research. You are welcome to answer any question on this site where you know the answer. But in certain forums, like law, you have to be sure of the answer. We take pride in the quality of the advice we give here. If your advice is not factually correct your "reputation" will suffer. Your answer is incorrect. In some areas household income is considered in awarding support.

I don't see that the answer suggested otherwise.

The very moment you had your daughter you could have taken continuation school.and taken care of your daughter.worry about what she will tell you when she's older.
About child support if he isint the father he doesn't have to pay. But he can
I'm in continuation.yes everyone does mistakes but you have to learn to get back up life goes on either if you go the right or wrong way.goodluck

Personally, I believe she was too young/immature to make the choices she did and if she wants to should go to family court to at least share custody if that's okay with her husband. That would also take care of child support a, 50/50 custody and give the baby a chnace to renew her life with mom, rather than growing up bitter, getting one side, and asking mom, why did you leave me, why didn't you fight for me, wasn't I worth it?

This really doesn't answer the question that was asked. Nor does it conform to existing law. Whether the OP can get custody is another issue. And even if they shared physical custody evenly that doesn't mean that support wouldn't be necessary.

Thank you for trying to help our members, but we have a high standard for accuracy on the legal forums.
