Similarly, in established relationships, child support can become a recurring source of conflict. Disagreements may arise over how resources are allocated between the current relationship and the financial obligations to the child and custodial parent. Resentment or jealousy might emerge if one partner feels neglected or overshadowed by the demands of the child support arrangement. Moreover, differing views on parenting or discipline could surface, especially if the partner is involved in co-parenting with an ex-partner.
