If me and my spouse r living together and I have a 6 year old son shld the bills be split in 3 ways?

I do pay 100 more for rent and he 105 less please help!!! If me and my spouse r living together and I have a 6 year old son shld the bills be split in 3 ways?
When your spouse chose to be in a relationship with you, he chose to equally share in the responsibilities of the family. His mother may not like this. She obviously does not. But that does not mean that she is right. Or that she needs to be invited back. :) Good luck. If me and my spouse r living together and I have a 6 year old son shld the bills be split in 3 ways?
Is he actually your spouse? Are you married? In this case each should contribute as much as they can afford in the household, analogically to their income. For example, if he earns more he should contribute more and vice versa.





Of course, this 3-way split is nonsense.





Now, if you just live together, again you should either contribute in analogy to your income or pay half-half- whatever you've agreed with your b/f.





By the way, since he's with you (and assuming you are married) your son is his responsibility too now. HE should provide for him too.





Either way, don't allow his mom to butt in- it's not her business for god's sake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are married, all your money is held in joint and you are each responsible for each other's finances UNLESS you already specifically opted out of this standard agreement in writing.





There is no splitting anything 3 ways. 100% of all your and your husband's income goes to the family and 100% of all bills are paid by the family.





If you choose to have fights or disagreements in front of family or friends, you are inviting them to participate in that fight or disagreement.
**** i would have to say the person that said she should have her kid taken off her. wtf for? all she is asking is if her spouses wicked mother is right? how does that comprehend she is a bad mother?. I dnt live with my partner fully but he still helps and i pay the majorly of the rent cause i have a 2 yr old son who occupies a room. i agree bills should be split in half not 3 ways geez the kid is 6 yrs old not a bloody teenager. My advice tell ur spouses mother to get stuffed and that her son decided to be in a relationship with someone who has akid he should take responsibility as an adult and go halfs in everything and not fight over a kid and asking the kid to contribute.


Leave it the way things are or better stil he lives with you so the rent should be spilt evenly.


good luck with everything :o)
it all depends on what you agree on. there is no rule abouthow bills are split up. if you have to have an extra room because of the kid, how much does that cost compared to a 1 bedroom. do you think you should pay that extra? does he really use 1/3 of the water and electricity and cable and internet? should it be per capita or usage based? another way people split bills is based on income, ie each pays a certain percentage of their take-home - so if one person makes a lot less that is more 'fair'. do some people do a lot more of the chores like laundry or dishes? that perhaps should be considered. but it comes down to what is your agreement with the person. are you getting child support? how much?
If you are already paying 100 more that should be enough. How much can a six year old use that anyone else in the house isn't using at the same time. This seems rather nit picky........if paying for the child of the one you love is such a problem, then maybe the problem is really ';the person';


By the way a spouse in legal terms is someone you are married to.
If you are married why are you worrying about who pays for what? All your bills should be paid together. Your mother-in-law needs to mind her own business and your husband needs to back you up.





If the two of you cannot agree on financial matters like this, you'll never last. Get into marriage counseling NOW!
?? There are child labor laws in place for a reason. You cannot be serious that you expect your child to help support you. You should be thrown in jail for that and your child taken away and placed in a better environment where he is allowed to be a kid.
that is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard in my entire life.





you and your spouse are the only adults everything should be split evenly your together that means sharing everything if he or she cant deal with that DUMP THEM
I don't see way you should be in everything equal ya'll are married so he is his son to even if it's not his really you know
you have left me speechless. SPEECHLESS! And you married him because? WHY? You are roommates not a married couple! HOLY CRAP! I cannot believe people!
What???Is his mother suggesting that she pay the other third? Im unclear on your question.
no
no
