To think if you're a NRP and you don't pay half the child's costs you're unreasonable

This is not a TAAT but why oh why do some people think it's fine to pay CSA minimum?

Surely the only fair way is for the NRP to pay half of what it costs to raise the child I.e. Half childcare fees, half uniforms/agreed clubs and a contribution towards housing/food if they have the child less than half the time.

AIBU to think that if they "can't afford it" then they should go without the bigger house/golf trips/ski weekends and pay for their child like the RP bloody well has to?

AIBU to judge men who don't do this when they are physically financially able?

If you pay CSA minimum, unless the RP is stonkingly rich, then yes you are a shit

I'm definitely a shit then as my exh (RP) was unemployed.
