    So? Support is generally based on your income. The custodial parent is not required to work.

    The temporary custody is 65%.. 45%... me the 45%... because he stays at home and I work full time. I am able to take the kids fulltime if I can so I figure they should b with me since he hasn't worked for almost 4years he can't provide for them. I don't feel like I should pay so he can still not work. That seems like spousal support not child support to me.
