    Kevin Costner cut his child support payments in half... and the spousal maintenance remains untouched. Poor kids... now having to survive on only $9250 (USD) a day.

    New ruling came as a win for Costner, 68, as he was tentatively ordered to make monthly payments of $129,755 to the former handbag designer for their three kids Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 13 -- in July. But in prior legal documentation, Baumgartner, who filed for divorce from Costner in May after 18 years of marriage, allegedly claimed that the six-figure number still would be “insufficient” and result in the kids not living the same lifestyle with each parent.

    Child support is supposed to cover the basic needs of the children, not crazy amounts like that

    yes, Kevin Costner can voluntarily help his children more if he wishes, but he should not be forced to give the money to his ex

    if Kevin died, how much would the Government determine they should pay in child support, that should be the max
