Maybe give some free advice about: Parenting?
Yes, one thing you do have to understand is that weather we like it or not its based on a number of things. How much the father makes, how much you make if your employed, if you have help from family members, if he has other children and what he has to pay them, and also if he has other living expenses. The courts wont make him pay more if he cant. If you and the father get along maybe you can talk to him about helping out more. Any other questions just ask. My ex and I work something out with eachother.

I know a lot of fathers who are only court ordered to pay $50 a month. One person was ordered to pay $1 and was thrown in jail for not doing so.
If you are aware of your child's father having a job or better employment you can request a modification where they will look into his wages. You should also inform child support enforcement that you are not recieving the full $75. If he doesn't make enough he needs to get a second job. You could also request temporary assistance which in the state of Missouri is $274.00 per month. Its not much but more than $75.
