He is working a part time job that is almost full time but they don't want him to have benefits so it's just under the 40 hours. It's been tough but we helped him by buying him a used car and let him come over a couple times a week to do wash. We are very tight and though I would love to help I feel we have helped him enough before. I will use my social security to pay for a room if necessary, but my husband deserves his peace and quiet. He went to court but couldn't afford a lawyer except for advice. She cried to the judge and got the child support payments cut by 2/3.

No offense, but are you sure your son is being absolutely truthful with you? How many times and in what ways have you helped him before?
He was in the courtroom at the courthouse when the judge reduced her child support payments, wasn't he? . He was right there. Why didn't he file a petition against her for non payment of child support? You don't need a lawyer to do that. Something is not right here. I don't think you're getting the whole story.. or maybe we aren't..
