And so, if you KNOW the spouse is not legally obligated to support YOUR kid and HE isn't working, then what do you want anyone to do? Pull a rabbit out of the magic hat? There ARE no options. If you want/need more money, then you'll just have to make more if you don't want to send her to live where she can ride in a couple of escalades. Having issues with depression doesn't disqualify you from raising a child.
