Talking About Child Maintenance
Talking about money might feel like the last thing you want to do, especially if your relationship with the other parent is strained.
Most parents want what’s best for their children, and nearly all separated parents agree that both of them should pay towards their everyday living costs.

Child maintenance is about providing help with a child’s everyday living costs. This includes things like food and clothes and helping to provide a home for your child or children.
Around 1.5 million children in the United Kingdom benefit from their parents having a family-based arrangement for child maintenance, and the number is growing.
If you’re finding it hard to make a family-based arrangement, there is help available. For example, you could try Mediation.
38% of separated families benefit from child maintenance arrangements which parents have agreed between themselves.
