TMZ has learned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to court documents, &lt;strong&gt;Amber Schon&lt;/strong&gt; wanted Neal to up his $3,000/month in child support to $5,758.90/month. Amber and Neal have 2 minor children ... Aja and Sophia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But a family court judge in Minnesota -- where they were divorced in 2007 -- recently ruled against Amber, saying the requested increase was \"intended primarily to upgrade her own standard of living.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And what a standard ... according to the documents, Amber's annual expenses include $7,200 for clothing, $5,760 for a storage locker, and $9,600 for birthday parties.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the most shocking expense -- $2,400 on postage! Apparently, someone hasn't heard of email.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the docs, the judge says Amber could be earning up to $36,000/year on her own ... if she'd just complete her teaching degree -- and added it's not Neal's fault she failed to \"obtain any kind of employment.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neal tells TMZ, \"My concern is with my children and I'm infuriated they are being exploited and used to extort money from me.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It might be time to stop believin' ... for Amber, anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
