Well the court orders state that DSD (dear step daughter....) is supposed to spend every second weekend with us, so the child support is allocated that way - basically Shane pays 80% of what he legally has to? Anyway, she is going to prove that DSD hasn't been to stay for a year, and that she should get the full carers amount. So its fair for them, but really - we want her to stay, and have invited her so many times its not funny. Problem is his XW has turned them all into head cases, so we dont exist in their world.

Child support is a completely crap system. I'm actually sorta looking forward to going back to work though. Sorta......
