According to what I've read online, if the significant other has no or very low income, they will pay $25-$50/month in child support. Having 4 children with someone who is poor to the point that they can't afford to pay more than $25-$50/month per child is an impressive feat.pic.twitter.com/EMJgEuhM99
I'm sorry to hear that, but you will overcome. My dad also died way too young and it wreaked financial havoc on my family. We were fine, but it was hard, particularly for my mother. That said, I don't think giving money to everybody always makes sense over means testing here.
