    There's kid involved and whatever is in print is never the full story.

    Does this mean that he pays no maintenance or child support now?

    No, only about 80%-90%, he needs enough to buy food so he can continue working to give it all to her.

    The system is defiantly set up to benefit the mother; Not necessarily the children per say but the mother.
    Why is it assumed the kids are better off with the mother? Why is it not automatically 50/50 custody and each pay their way if she is a working mother also? Because there is a lot more money involved for the courts and attorneys when there is fighting involved.
