Child Support

I need some advice on how you all handle child support. My husband pays a substantial amount of money to my SS BM. I'm sure I don't have to tell you that she doesn't spend it on what HE needs, it has been going to her other 2 very young kids the past 2 years. Now we found out that she is preganant again. She doesn't work. So my question is, do your husband's talk to the BM about the money and on what it is being spent? Have any of you had to have a talk with the BM about getting ready to adjust to not getting the money after the kid turns 19?

Where do I even begin?

I have been married for 9 1/2 years. My husband had a son prior to us meeting. He was never married to my stepson's mother. We have tons of issues with my stepson's mother, how he is being raised, why we can't get custody of him, you name it. He is now 12 years old and all of the things I worried about when he was 2 and 3 and 4 are coming to fruition.
