Asking for a friend, recently separated and has 3 DC, DH works FT but not in a well paying job. He has moved in with the OW and is paying rent on a one bed flat.
He’s giving her way below what the CSA or what it’s called now say as he’s says he can’t afford it as he has rent and other bills to pay.
All contact with his DC is at his old house as he can’t afford to take them out and friend doesn’t want them in the flat with OW, DC are quite traumatised by the split.
I say tough he should pay the maintenance no matter what, if he can’t afford the rent then a) he should get somewhere cheaper or b) move into a flat share or something as his DC should come first.
