Responses:

In all honesty, a part of child support is so the kid does not end up feeling like they are living with the "wrong" parent. - Spawn Aug 24, 07:53 13
- I have three friends with kids who are going through divorces right now and this is the worst part, they say -- - amanda Aug 24, 07:57 4
  - I have been through it. But in my case I was also aware that my father was not even paying my mother what he was supposed to. - Spawn Aug 24, 08:00 2
    - my mom gave my dad $50 in child support *once.* we never really knew. he always covered for her. - amanda Aug 24, 08:03 1
      - My mom worked three (and even for a while four) jobs. We had next to nothing for many years. - Spawn Aug 24, 08:06
  - My gf deals with this all the time. Her ex is a Cardiologist -- nm - decline Aug 24, 07:58
- well, then it is still an epic fail then. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:54 7
  - I guess I don't follow what you are saying, then. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 07:56
  - ? really? what if your kids spent half their time with some super rich relative who gave them everything - Andie Aug 24, 07:55 5
    - that is going to happen regardless, don't you think? nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:56 4
      - Yes, but Katie will also buy her nice stuff, take her places, etc. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 07:57 3
        
        no where near what dad can do though. - groiny Aug 24, 07:59 2
        
        Well, I have a feeling Katie will be consistently there for her, where Tommy Girl will not be. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 08:03
        
        they didn't go to court at all. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 08:02
i bet her rent costs $10,000. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:31 61
- double it, I think. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:35 3
  - this is how you know when someone has too much money. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:36 2
    - I have no doubt that when Tommy gets visitation he will buy Suri all kinds of ridiculous shit. He's already started. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:37 1
      - I would imagine he'll pay for like horseback riding and ice skating and such as well. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 07:49
- I thought she just bought that place. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 07:33 4
  - oh, probably, -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:34
  - fuck it, she can live with me. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:34 2
    - *cancels movers* -- nm - Jenny McCarthy Aug 24, 07:36 1
      - I have a much better shot at her sister, at this point. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:37
- also, TIME TO MOVE!!!! nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:33
- Not to mention the costs for security. -- nm - pmb Aug 24, 07:33
- it is not like she does not have any $ of her own though. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:32 49
  - I'm honestly surprised she didn't get more, though. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:38 46
    - looking at what Tom makes, sure, but 33K a month is absurd no matter how you slice it. -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:41 43
      - a 400K income in NYC isn't at all crazy though. - Andie Aug 24, 07:43 28
        
        he's paying for her education, though -- that's likely another $100k? -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 07:45 6
        
        and I don't know who's paying the nanny, but a high end full time nanny will be an easy $150k/year. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:46
        
        is she at boarding school or day school? (i am mostly just curious). - Andie Aug 24, 07:46 2
        
        day. the boarding school they were talking about sending her to was a sci one -- rumor is that was the last straw for katie. - amanda Aug 24, 07:47
        
        day. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:46
        
        at the Catholic school they're talking about, more like 40-50. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:45 1
        
        thank you for correcting. my ? indicated that I didn't know. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 07:46
        
        yes, looking at it as a % of Tom's money, sure. - groiny Aug 24, 07:44 19
        
        even taking Tom out of it, in Manhattan society terms it's nothing. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:45 18
        
        it's really not. and adding in bodyguards? I bet she has two shifts of two people, and one overnight person. that's $400k per year in manhattan. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 07:46 16
        
        well, you know, she could , I dunno, move? nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:48 14
        
        her *job* is in new york. you could move too. I could move. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 07:49 13
        
        this. she's trying to start up a fashion line. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:50 12
        
        right, so she has $. So we cannot look at this like the 400k is all she has. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:51 11
        
        Suri is Tom Cruise's kid. Why should Tom not pay support at a level that other dad's pay support? -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:53 3
        
        I think this is the biggest thing. the judge should have awarded enough support that suri's life didn't have to change. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 07:59 1
        
        Dave just finished payment support for his son - i assure it was a hell of a lot more than 2% of his income. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 08:00
        
        I posted elsewhere in this trhread by mistake, but was refering to some of this. -- nm - Spawn Aug 24, 07:55
        
        It's not about how much money she has. She deserved more, IMO. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:53 6
        
        Pre Nuptual Agreement. She signed it. -- nm - Bacon Aug 24, 07:59
        
        The marraige is over, so the money is over. -- nm - Bacon Aug 24, 07:55 4
        
        you don't think he needs to pay for his child's care? interesting. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:56 3
        
        She was talking about him paying her alimony. -- nm - Bacon Aug 24, 07:58 2
        
        okay, i thought you meant *all* the money is over from your statement. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:59
        
        her life is different forever after being married to Tom. - loosilu Aug 24, 07:59
        
        and they genuinely need bodyguards. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:47
        
        this. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:45
        
        it's really not. you're not a rich person on that. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:44
      - But that's his daughter and she's entitled to it, you know? -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:42 13
        
        she is entitled to something, somehow I doubt she needs 33k a month worth of shit. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:43 12
        
        Maybe not --- but given the massive fortune in play here....400k a year sounds low. - Will Hunting Aug 24, 07:46 9
        
        Sorry, not 5% --- 2%. Child and spousal support of 2% is unreal low. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 24, 07:48
        
        child support of any nature, should be based on need. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:47 7
        
        well, what do you tell Sur? Your dad is megarich, but you live with your mom. So, go live in your walk up apartment and try to not be jealous of - Andie Aug 24, 07:50 5
        
        and also, every time you see your dad, he will take you on a ridiculous fantasy vacation. - loosilu Aug 24, 07:54
        
        *and* need is location-based, peer-group based. suri needs vastly different things than needs a child here, say. -- nm - amanda Aug 24, 07:52
        
        life is hard, kid, get used to it. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:52 2
        
        it's Tom's money. do you think he's being ripped off or something? -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:54 1
        
        no, I think when you can afford to pay 400k a year for "child support", you make too much money. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 24, 07:56
        
        We can talk "Should" as part of the hypothetical "Fixes".... -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 24, 07:49
        
        it's not about what she needs. we all know no kid needs that much. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:44
        
        Better to her than to the Church of Scientology or whatever crap Tom would buy for himself. -- nm - mara Aug 24, 07:44
    - How much did she get? -- nm - Under the Influence Aug 24, 07:41 1
      - reportedly nothing. -- nm - loosilu Aug 24, 07:42
  - *laughs* -- nm - The Church of Scientoogy Aug 24, 07:33
  - of course. -- nm - Andie Aug 24, 07:33
