Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Child support is typically paid out as fixed, monthly payments and is intended to cover the costs of raising the couple's children after a divorce. This support may be paid by one or the other spouse, or ex-spouses may split these costs until the children reach their early 20s, depending on the specific terms of the divorce settlement. Alimony (B) is a separate form of financial support that one spouse may be required to pay the other to help them maintain their lifestyle after a divorce, and is not directly tied to the needs of the children. Attorney fees (C) and marital grants (D) are other potential expenses or financial considerations in a divorce, but are not directly related to child support payments.
