certificate 3 in childcare
The mother, as the other parent represented by this Author, in the proceedings for modification of child(ren) support before Department 2G, Com. Anthony B. Drewry presiding, (Com. H.M. Webster retired in April 2009) against the father as respondent, was willing to split monthly children care costs of $1,056.00 (at $88 per week per child).

But the father objected to certificate 3 in childcare costs and yet asserted that mom should be working. But mom has three children, 10, 9, and 7 years of age, and a fourth child, 1 year old, with another partner, who is living with mom and the four children.
With four young children, mom is a fulltime homemaker without time to look for work, nor study, nor train for work, nor actually work. Should the rule on certificate 3 in childcare costs be changed to provide child care costs to allow mom to look for work and hopefully find work?
Indeed, Section 4062(a)(1) of the Family Code provides for child care costs as mandatory add-on, if "related to employment or reasonably necessary education or training for employment skills" of a parent.
Pros and Cons On Changing
Child Care Rule:
The proposed change in child care costs rule is for the non-custodial parent to provide child care costs to allow the not-working custodial parent to look for work for a reasonable length of time.
Otherwise, the rule perpetuates the status quo, with mom unable to pursue her work or career development, and dad liable for more non-custodial parent's basic child support according to the Family Code guidelines.
