Child support

Child support

Hi ladies,
Not really a question but I’m looking for others opinions on child support.
So I personally think the system needs a massive overhaul my situation is my husband has recently earned a lot more and his child support has gone through the roof so basically every extra dollar he earned this year has gone to child support however because my ex refused to work in over 10 years and because I work my but off he pays $30 per month I’m actually so over it. the only reason my husband earned so much is because after he left his ex he bettered himself and did training that she refused to allow him to to when together as it meant time off work now she is reaping the rewards.
My opinion is the government feels as though one child is more entitled than another because of earnings and they do not take into consideration the fact my husband has taken on my child to raise feed, clothe and educate as well as his own so we work harder to provide for both our children. Please don’t be judgmental in your opinion it’s not needed I would just like to know if anyone else feels as though the system needs an overhaul
Thanks

You should be supporting your self and your kid lady. Why does he owe it to you to pay for your child?????????!?????????????? You knew he had a child, responsibility when you met him. Get. Over. It.
