My husband is paying his ex alot of maney for child support, and the ex is very demanding on this sshe treats with talking to her lawyer if the check is 2 days late (we live on Germany and se on the states so it takes a while somethimes) anyways we think is too much money, enough to pay the rent of a house and besides she is got a bf, and is none of my bussines but what kind of guy he is, she got to keep everything when my hubby divorced her and this guy is living on the house using all this stuff, anyways thats not part of the cuestion, what i want to know is there any way that he can pey less child support ? we have 1 child together and 2 of my previous relaton, and we dont even spend the same amount of money he sends her in all 3 kids, i just think is unfair because he doesn't even get to see the kid, and to her daddy is another guy and not my hubby, someone that is probably living of the child dupport my husband pays

Child support is calculated by both of the parents wages.If your husband makes more then his ex,then he is perpetually paying the amount needed to care for the child.It does matter what she spends the support on b/c even rent,electricity,gas etc.are needs for the child.
Why doesn't he get to see the child?Is it b/c of the distance?If he truly loves the child then he should make the effort to see him.
In the courts opinion,usually it does not matter how any children he had with the ex,they see it as "you should of thought about the support issue before you had other children." If you go back to court to get a modification of support,there stands the possibility of the court increasing the amount of support.BUT they can no take more then 50% since he has other dependents.If he did not have other dependents,then the max amount would be 60%.

He can file a request for modification of child support, but I wouldn't bank on it changing. The courts are only concerned with the parent with custody being able to take care of the child. If your hubby never sees the child, she is responsible for all of the child's needs.

You knew about this situation when you decided to marry him, so now you are living with reality. His obligation will always be to his first family, and you must let him deal with things as he wants. You stay out of it.
