I am 37 live in Illinois decided to switch roles with my ex-husband and allow our boys to live with him because I am a sales rep who works various hours and travels and I thought it would be in the best interest of the boys to live with dad for purley daycare reasons only. With that being said I now am paying child support which i should, I also am paying a additional $400.00 a month on top of the support to their dad who is more than gainfully employeed and is a union electrician in Chicago.
Once rent is paid, and support, there is little left over. I am in a credit mess.
