...file for child support? I want to file for child support but she keeps telling me that I cant ask for child support because we have shared custody. I have physical custody of the kids because thats the way she wanted. The kids live with me and rarely visit the mother. Will she be able to take the kids back?? Iam a good parent and am in no kind of problems with the law. Can she just go to court and say she wants the kids back and just take them?? The kids have been with me for 1 year already.
