La has a statute pertaining to CP's working with children under the age of 5 yrs. Basically the CP doesn't have to get a job and the NCP pays a majority of support, especially if the CP was a stay home parent during the marriage.

How are you providng for your infant with no job? If your parents are footing the bill, all household income can be considered when determining CS, since your actual expenses are reduced.

The judge cannot force you to get a job, but in California, child support is calculated using both parents' incomes. So the judge will impute (assign) you a wage based on your last job or your capabilities. The judge will not care that you are living with your parents - that is very common when people split up.
