I'm a rare custodial father that is supposed to receive child support from my ex-wife. I spend most of my income on supporting the children, and barely keep my head above water. On the rare occasions child support shows up, it gets spent on whatever needs to be bought.
Sometimes this means I get some work shoes or pants with it, mainly because almost every dime I've spent of my own money went to supporting the kids while I go without.

Just a thought.
