It depends entirely on your income level. There is a sliding scale in place in most states, and the court usually sticks to that unless there are other circumstances that could change it.

You will pay 25% of your annual income to for child support- 1 child. Any additional children will be 17% more. This will end when they are 18 unless your agreement carries on thru the childs higher education. Some people also have to pay additionally towards the child's health care. Both parent incomes are looked at and the monetary amount is based on a %. Example 40-60 including any medical co-pays or prescriptions. Hope this was helpful.

I think it depends on your income and where you live.
Here in Minnesota, I know a firefighter who pays $600 a month in child support for one child whose mother he never married. And I know a teacher who never married and he pays $400 a month in support for his one child.

My experience (I live in CA) is a quarter of your earnings is the max., it's all an equation based on visitation percentage and income. You can find free child support calculator's online, you plug in your income and the amount of custody.

They will consider the mother's income a well.
