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) And finally, what if the father's income is (£3,000/£1,000/£3,000/£1,000/£3,000/£1,000/£3,000/£1,000) per month but the (mother's/new husband's) is (£2,200/£900/£2,200/£900/£3,000/£1,000/£3,000/£1,000) per month.
