Yeah, I felt like that. And like I said, I'm pretty sure most people feel like that. But I got to understand that it's deeper than that. And basically what the courts are saying is that if one parent is living a lavish lifestyle, a luxurious lifestyle, rich, successful career, but that child doesn't live with that parent, that child's lifestyle still needs to be able to reflect the parent's lifestyle as well

But if one parent is living a very good lifestyle because they go to work every day and they manage their money well and they are able able to afford that lifestyle, then if the other parent wants the child to live that lifestyle, then they should let the child go live with them. Or the child can live that lifestyle when they are at the parent's house

So I think that's fair because I don't know, this is complicated and multilayered. Even when we say things like you chose to have a baby. Not really. And I know people say, well, you chose to have sex, you chose to have a baby, I don't think that's really the case either. Honestly. It's so tricky and so nuanced, right?

As much as we like to sit there and be like, whatever you don't spend on my son, put it in the bank or put it in the trust fund, that's not happening. That's not happening. Now, in Alimony, in my state, she wasn't working and said she never worked. Because if she said that she never worked or I took her out of work, she would have got more money, you understand what I'm saying?
It's designed to keep the man out, that crib and that's section eight and all that kind of stuff. And they don't mind spending that little bit of money because they know where you at is where you're going to be. They ain't going to walk away and come back and you live in the mansion, not Namon. You're going to be still right there because I'm giving you enough so where you can do what you need to do
