>>>my household is very stable. More stable than someone who is bipolar and "living with' a boyfriend.<<<
Having to move away from your child because you cannot keep a roof over your head is not stability. Not being able to provide less than $200 a month to support your child is not stability.
>>>If he's not paying rent, than she's supporting him, and I should not have to support her if thats whats going on.<<<
Actually, those aren't the only options. They could be splitting the cost of the home/bills, as most people who live together (married or not) do.
>>>If she wants to be a [censored], she can post more on craigslist, like she did when we were married.<<<
Again, therapy would be a good choice.
>>>Everyone I talk to says to take her to court to reduce my support because of this.<<<
Like the other poster said, make sure you have your ducks in a row. You will most likely be ordered to pay a percentage of childcare. You will most likely be ordered to pay a percentage of medical insurance & co-pays/deductible. And you could be ordered to pay part of extra-curriculars.
the calculator I used says I should be paying 131 (even though she doesn't really need it, she got by fine when I was not paying)

[quote]Last month she called and insisted I take a day off because she wasn't willing to take another sick day at work when my daughter was sick. what kind of mother is that?

Sounds like a responsible mother who wants to do well in her career so that she can support her daughter.
Have you been taking care of your daughter more than half of the days she has been out of school due to illness ?

It is VERY rare to get 100% of one's insurance covered through work. Okay, then. If she pays $0 for insurance then you would still be liable for a percentage of copays and deductibles. I bet she pays a portion of the premium, though, and it is paid through payroll deduction.

If it's on my watch, sure. I shouldn't have to on her days.

You had 50% before you moved away from your child.
