In a similar vein, actor Dave Foley's divorce: (nsfw language) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaC-2lj6HNg

video tldr: He on a show in the 90s and making $1 mil+, the show was canceled and he was without a job but stuck with the child support and alimony of $17700 a month, which can't be adjusted down per the law. He hasn't been able to keep up and doesn't can't go to Canada to see his kids for fear of being arrested immediately.

IMO child support should have a limit... What child needs over 25k a year? I live off of that today as a student... I feel that the other parent would take a large portion of that money for themselves.
Thank you for posting this. Truly shocking stuff.
