Support child with limited help (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chassis

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'support' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'child with limited help' is the wordplay.
'child with' becomes 'ch' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'limited' means to remove the last letter.
'help' becomes 'assist' (assisting is a kind of helping).
'assist' with its last letter removed is 'assis'.
'ch'+'assis'='CHASSIS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chassis that I've seen before include "Vehicle structure" , "Car's body" , "Body framework" , "basic structure" , "Support" .)
