How much maintenance should I be paying?

    Hi I'm looking for a rough estimation of what single dad's are paying currently on child maintenance please.
    Currently I live 200km from my daughter and see her every second weekend where I drive to collect and drop her back both ways.Her mother is now looking for more maintenance as the amount I currently pay 100p/wk isn't enough.She wants more to cover half of all the child's expenses .ie back to school,xmas,bday,extra curricular etc.As it is im struggling between mortgage and other repayments and on paper my balance is in the negative.So if anyone is in the same scenario I'd like to hear how you are managing?

    hi OP

    as you've already got an active thread on this in the parenting forum, I'm closing this.
