check out the texas child support calculator. http://www.co.travis.tx.us/records_communication/law_library/pdfs/calculator.pdf He can clearly take it out. However, you can get a court order stating that he has to pay for half of daycare, half of out of pocket medical expenses, half of dental and vision bills...etc. Plug in the info into the calculator and see what you get.
