My sons father and I never married. My son is almost 5 months old, the father moved out over 2 months ago permanently. He left me many times during the pregnancy. For about 2 weeks after he moved out, he was watching the baby--all while complaining he had to get out of work early so I could get to my job in time, then hounding me all night about when I would be done. Then he finally told me to find other arrangements, leaving me scrambling on a Monday to find reliable care beginning the very next day. Well, he filed for joint custody. He has been keeping the baby on Saturday nights, when there is no scheduling conflict. I filed for child support b/c he said he didn't see any reason to help me out with housing,etc. So for the time being, we agreed he would pay 1/2 insurance and 1/2 daycare, which came to $90/week. At our first child support meeting, he refused to pay for the daycare, citing that he could keep the baby, and that it was unnecessary. So, now it goes to a master's hearing.
