215. Wow. My husband is a prince among men
He paid child support of $850/month for his two children more than 10 years ago. When the oldest turned 18 and left home, he and his ex spoke and he agreed to keep paying the $850 for one child, as otherwise they would have to move and cut back expenses dramatically. He also paid a few additional months of support after the youngest child was launched so that his ex could finish her bachelors degree. It wasn't about vengeance at all, it was about providing a safe, stable environment for his children and making sure that the mother of two of his children could absorb the loss of income.

While it was hard some months, I would not be able to be with a man who would do any less for his children.
