LabelChild M baseline scenario 2nd income variation :Q700
Question text (Family: - 8 year old boy - Parents married for 10 years, now divorced - Boy lives mostly with mother, sees father twice in week and stays overnight once at the weekend) Now imagine that in this family the father's income is (£2,000, £2,000, £1,000/£3,000/£2,000/£2,000/£1,000/£3,000) per month but the (mother's/mother's new husband's) is (£900/£2,200/£1,500/£1,500/£1,000/£3,000/£2,000/£2,000) per month. How much child maintenance do you think (the father should be required/it is fair to expect the father) to pay the mother each month?
