What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oklahoma
My husband has a 5 year old daughter who lives with her mother out of state. We live in Oklahoma where all the jurisdiction is and she in New Mexico. He pays a lot in child support which greatly limits our funds but we want a family of our own. How will child support for my step daughter be affected? Will it be lowered when there are more kids involved? And just to cover myself, if my husband and I divorced, would child support be paid for my kids? I've always heard that the courts only care about kids from the first relationship and am scared to start my family without answers to these questions. Thank you so much!
