Father is liable for maintenance of his minor children


Father is liable for maintenance of his minor children. No matter with whom the children reside, father is liable to maintain them according to his financial standards. If the father is rich then he has to give more maintenance, if the father is poor then the maintenance amount will be less.

Even if the mother is a working lady, its not her liability to maintain children. She is only liable to maintain herself and not her children. Similarly if the father is jobless even then he is liable to maintain his children for their basic food and clothing no matter from where he manages to arrange an amount for that.
