    Depends entirely on the circumstances.

    Did I have a nice childhood? Did I get to go to all the clubs I wanted to go to? Did I get the education I wanted?

    In my opinion, having too much money is harmful for a child, best to keep it in a fund for college / a downpayment.

    3k a month is enough.

      “My billionaire dad fought against giving me a lot of money when I was a kid because too much money is harmful for a child. He flew on his private jet and then drove in his luxury car to the trial to make sure I wasn’t harmed by money. That’s why I love and respect him.” Yes, that sounds plausible. I’m sure they wouldn’t think their billionaire dad living his billionaire lifestyle didn’t skimp out on them because he had a college fund for them.

        You’re still dodging the real point.

        Child support != money given to the child.

        You have no idea what he’s giving to the child directly, yet you keep complaining about not giving obscure amounts of money to the child’s mother, by clothing it up as “daddy doesn’t care about the child”.

          Dude he has so much money he spends on trivial shit like buying Twitter and flying on jets. Who cares if the wife gets some of the money? She’s doing all the care. Does he really hate her that much?

          It’s shameful to be so rich and you still fight to reduce the amount of support money for your family (kids and their Mum). I bet when she was in his bed he promised her everything in the world back then.
