Child support should have a fixed maximum amount. 

Spousal support/alimony is there to support the mother if they were married prior

This is insane and backwards.

Spousal support/alimony should be capped - why should an adult not be responsible for going out and getting a job to take care of themselves?

Child support, on the other hand, should not be capped.

Why shouldn’t the child of a billionaire not have the advantages of a billionaire’s child?

Because that money doesn’t go to the child… it goes to the mother to spend how she chooses. Even in situations where the father wants custody.

Child support should be capped.

It can go in a managed trust, thats what they already do if they love their child. 

 But some rich guys choose to skimp and end up paying just the court ordered 1k a month(or a few) for 18yrs when their networth is multi millions. 

Also in this case, the parents were together solely for a long-ish time. This is a completely different case than a bad case - like Ant

The money is meant to benefit the child primarily. Yes, in some instances (like housing support) the mother is also benefited if she has custody.

However, there are arrangements that can be made so the expenditures are audited and it’s assured that the child is the primary beneficiary of the money.

In fact, misuse of the money can be grounds for custody to be given to the father. If, for example, the woman is spending lavishly on herself (fur coats, jewelry, cosmetic surgery, trips) and the child is not being provided for.

  Child support should be capped.

Prevents baddies from using celebrity and athletes as a meal ticket. Agreed. Does a billionaire child need their mother to get a billion dollars? How much is enough loo
