| 38 | Tennessee man forced to pay child support even after court ordered DNA test proves he is not the fatherI like your logic. | /r/MensRights | 25/07/13 06:23 PM |
| 6 | Oh how I love the fairness of the Child Support system.That's been happening to me for going on 12 years now. The sad part is that I've moved on from my ex and started a new family, so I must do everything I can to help support the household. Even if I'm only making less than minimum wage after CS gets their cut. | /r/MensRights | 01/03/12 01:45 PM |
| 1 | Child Support Is Leaving Me With No MoneyOh believe me, there is a custody problem. As a matter of fact, it's never been legally set. More of it is that my daughter has picked up on her mothers unhealthy habits. Since her mom "believes" she doesn't need to go, she feels the same as well. To make it better, her aunt (mothers sister) TOOK HER OUT OF SCHOOL to take her to see a movie yesterday. It disgusts me, but there is really nothing I can do; it's horrible to be helpless. | /r/MensRights | 30/11/11 01:17 PM |
| 1 | Child Support Is Leaving Me With No MoneyLet me make a few points here. This was over 10 years ago, middle class would be a better term for me now. At the time of the hearing, all that I said was true. I had no insurance, and was working almost 80 hours a week between multiple jobs just to keep a roof over my head. Things are better now, I have insurance, own my home, etc. Here's an example of what I face. She needs to see an orthodontist, as she has the same mouth structure of her mother (who had braces and then invisalign for several… | /r/MensRights | 29/11/11 08:00 PM |
| 1 | Child Support Is Leaving Me With No MoneyI would rather directly pay the costs associated with her care and needs than be forced to. | /r/MensRights | 29/11/11 06:25 PM |
| 1 | Child Support Is Leaving Me With No MoneyWhen I went to court to set up my child support order, it was total BS as well. After the "calculations" I was to pay $90 a week, when I made only $7/hr at the time. I have epilepsy, and my treatment requires expensive medication (around 2k a month) and a $50k surgery every 5 to 7 years. Through some tactical arguments to the judge, I was able to get that order dropped to $70 a week. It has stayed that way the entire time (the child is now 12). I have heard the same thing some others have said a… | /r/MensRights | 29/11/11 01:37 AM |
| 3 | The mother of my child just tried to bribe me to keep me from seeking more time with my daughterI couldn't have said it better myself. It's a system driven by money, not children. | /r/MensRights | 11/11/11 01:54 AM |
| 2 | 'SNL's' Darrell Hammond reveals dark past of abuseSometimes it's torture such as that which makes great art come alive. I have only the deepest respect for him after watching that piece. | /r/MensRights | 25/10/11 03:26 PM |
| 0 | Child support hearing coming up. Unemployed and haven't been able to pay. Can't afford a lawyer. What can I expect if I show up without one?Expect about the same as if you had a lawyer. It really varies from state to state, but child support hearing never go well. | /r/MensRights | 20/10/11 07:45 PM |
| 9 | West Virginia man chooses jail over alimony.I agree. Everything about this is pure political BS. I hope I never have to worry about this sort of situation. | /r/MensRights | 20/10/11 05:31 PM |
| 2 | Non Custodial Parent Woes. Please read my rant, this could happen to all of you.When it comes to my children, cost is out of the question. I think I know what the "right" first step is, and I'm working on doing it, which is to get her to speak with a counselor to get this on a record of sorts. Her just speaking her opinion in court won't do any good. In the scheme of things, my daughter has had a relative good life. It has been the past 4 that has been sheer hell for her. Mostly due to her mothers' indiscretions about what was a good decision. | /r/MensRights | 04/10/11 01:49 PM |
| 2 | Non Custodial Parent Woes. Please read my rant, this could happen to all of you.Thank you for that comment, it means a lot. Emotional abuse is the worse kind as it leaves no outward scars. | /r/MensRights | 04/10/11 01:44 AM |
| 2 | Non Custodial Parent Woes. Please read my rant, this could happen to all of you.We've been working on that kinda. She knows that if she decides to move in with us, that there's no going back. She knows the rules of my home, and I think she likes them. She is the type of child that needs the structure we provide. I'm pondering having a pow-wow with her mother to have a discussion about her moving in for the rest of the school year. Her mother has a temper all of her own, which makes even discussing such things almost voo doo. At this point, I'm waiting on her to tell me that… | /r/MensRights | 04/10/11 01:42 AM |
| 2 | Non Custodial Parent Woes. Please read my rant, this could happen to all of you.Ever seen hoarders? Imagine that on a smaller scale. That's what I mean by trashy. Literally trash. Not trashy in a lifestyle sense. Attempting anything at any earlier points in her life would have been futile and wastes of money. Indiana is known for treating mothers as if they were gods. Now she is getting to the age where her opinion actually matters in the eyes of the court. Do you realize how poorly fathers (no matter how good or bad they are) are treated in family court situations? I have … | /r/MensRights | 04/10/11 01:36 AM |
| 2 | Non Custodial Parent Woes. Please read my rant, this could happen to all of you.Exactly, the constant state of "lockdown" my daughter is placed in is out of the ordinary. She just called me a few minutes ago and said that as soon as I left from dropping her off last night, her stepfather came into her room and took her laptop & power cord to her TV. She told me that he said that "he didn't like her attitude." I'm not claiming that she's an angel, it's just odd to punish her even more when she's already grounded to begin with. I try to listen to her concerns, and bite my lip… | /r/MensRights | 04/10/11 01:23 AM |
| 2 | Non Custodial Parent Woes. Please read my rant, this could happen to all of you.I never wanted to be an "occasional" parent. It's the system that has forced me to be one. I would have her 24/7 if I could, but our state somehow believes that the mother is always the best parent. My father raised me, as my mother was too busy doing drugs, and having affairs to be occupied with a young son. | /r/MensRights | 04/10/11 01:19 AM |
| 5 | Good work ladies!Parental rights are so skewed towards females in this country (USA) that it sometimes makes me want to move abroad. My wife and I are currently in a tif about my smoking. I'm currently trying to quit, but her only action is that she'll divorce me if I don't. What would that do for me? Nowhere to live, and no way to afford to live anywhere. While she by default will receive child support payments, etc. It doesn't matter who the better parent is, she will receive custody of the child. I could go o… | /r/MensRights | 28/03/11 02:50 PM |
