The child support guidelines now takes inconsideration of what both parents before imposing an order on either parent. Now the woman's income is used when deciding what the father will pay. Also the medical care will be split evenly between the parents. This new ruling is not to benefit the father, but more of a benefit for the child. Now that woman income are much higher than most men, the new law now forces the court to look at the womans income first before issuing a child support order. The new argument is that child support is that all this is done for the child, but what if their are other children that live with the father? A violation of one childs constitiutional rights so that you can protect anothers rights, is that fair? Make one child suffer so that another child can live better. The Court is becoming aware that the father has another family now the Court has to figure out ways to make it fair to both sets of childern!
