Parenting is a partnership. Children benefit when both parents work together to take care of their child's emotional and financial needs, even when the parents are not married to one another.
It's important for parents to provide financial, medical, and other benefits, because children who do not receive these are at risk of experiencing a reduced standard of living, suffering emotionally and physically, and performing poorly in school. Please use the links below to learn more about how you can work together to support your child:
