The mother has been on welfare since the age of 19 (legal age in Ontario) and has never made efforts to find work while still sending the child to full time daycare as welfare provides the service for free. As for the father, he makes the same amount she does and this working full time at minimum wage, but I am the one making the big salary and in Ontario a new spouse's salary cannot be taken into account for child support, reason for the big home and car. I have worked all my life to support my family (I have 3 other children). I work in an attorney's office and here in Canada if the mother does not try to take herself off welfare (she has no disabilities and has her GED) and earn a decent living to support her child judges will not be sympathetic to the fact that she lives in a small apartment with no transportation so a child support attorney can't do anything. He needs specialized school educators, a regular psychological follow-up (all these are free to the mother through welfare) but we still pay (the father and I) since she won't make the effort to take the necessary steps. Right now she is trying to go through governmental channels to get him declared a disabled child so she can get the extra $10,000 a year. The father said she can't keep the money but does not believe his son is disabled, just needs a little bit of extra help.
