2 years ago when me n my hubby split he gave me £60 a month and that was enough to keep my daughter going on what she basically needs, and I didnt work, we were seperated at the time. we are now back together and he works away also, 4 days on 4 days off, we share finances. £200 - £300 is alot of money for 1 child, even if you were split you would not get half that amount from csa
