That sounds like a tough situation to be in regarding the custodial issue. As far as child support, the court could order you to pay child support given that your son lives with his father. The issue would be how much is necessary to meet your son's reasonable needs. North Carolina has child support guidelines but those presumptive amounts can be modified if your ex is living well above his means and is receiving most of his support from his current spouse. The best thing you can do is ensure that you keep records of your payments so that if your ex does ask the court to order support that you have a consistent record of having made payments. Child support would end when your son turns 18 years old and has graduated high school.
