Just because men aren’t screwing the mom anymore DOESN’T mean the kid’s standard of living should change.

Except the kid doesn't get the money, the mother does, and there is no accounting for it, she can spend it on whatever she wants. It benefits her far more than it does the child.

I HAD YOUR KID! Pay up mother fucker

Pretty telling right there.

For those of you who do not speak Venusian, please allow me to translate. When certain individuals and/or groups talk about maintaining the "child's standard of living" what they are really talking about is maintaining mommy's standard of living.

I have been a divorced father for about 14 years. I was initially the noncustodial parent and then I became the primary or custodial parent during the teenage years. While each state has its own child support guidelines, I can tell you from experience that what I was originally paying was certainly more than what was needed to cover my child's needs. Furthermore, my ex worked and made a darn good salary, as I suspect Ms. Holmes does too, so why shouldn't she be responsible for some of those expenses too?

Maybe these folks just need to woman up!

No one takes umbrage because women are abused and oppressed and then DEMONIZED if they ever try to (God forbid) get something for themselves OR EXPECT what they are DUE! I HAD YOUR KID! Pay up mother fucker, this is a LIFETIME responsibility! (And by the by, we’d say that should apply to Lesbian relationships as well but who the hell are we?)

The attitude towards men and their responsibilities in our culture is disgusting. That is TOM’S kid, we don’t care if they grew her in petri dish, that is HIS child and HIS responsibility. Just because men aren’t screwing the mom anymore DOESN’T mean the kid’s standard of living should change. What is WRONG with people?

The ranting is so insane that I cannot tell if it is Poe or sarcasm.

There are no lesbian man-haters at all, from what I've been led to believe.

She's is right about one thing. It is Tom's kid. Why shouldn't he have custody? Why aren't we talking about Katie running off with his child? How much should Katy being paying Tom in child support?

gingertiger · 2012-07-17T00:57:59+00:00

As a kid who grew up on the income of only my mother...it's not the end of the world...especially for someone with Katie Holmes' money. Even if she never sees a red cent from Tom, she's better off without his crazy ass.

This is so out of touch with reality, it's disturbing.

The author sees/hears this:

they were wondering how much Tom Cruise was going to have to “shell out” to Katie Holmes for child support.

And instead of wondering about or arguing against why people would believe women are privileged in custody disputes and divorces, the author portrays women as grief-stricken victims suffering from receiving these child care payments.

Maybe if more was expected from dudes they wouldn’t feel so free to be disgusting whenever they feel like it.

Ha, ha ,ha. Wow.

I HAD YOUR KID! Pay up mother fucker, this is a LIFETIME responsibility!

I actually would agree. Except, you know, the woman has the lone say in abortion.

Dont want a kid? FUCKING ABORT IT OR TAKE THE PILL OR MAKE HIM USE A CONDOM.

Dont get a kid and then claim the father forced you into a lifetime responsibility. Because that just shows you are not ready to accept any responsibility whatsoever for your actions. Anybody who does that should have their adult-status taken away, as they clearly aren't ready.

Oh, and "your kid"? Again, except condoms, woman hold all the cards. She can say she takes the pill, have sex with you, get the child and you have to pay child support.

You can be forbidden from ever seeing the kid and still have to pay child support. How exactly would that be "my kid" then? Because the genes are split 50/50.

The attitude towards men and their responsibilities in our culture is disgusting.

I actually agree with that. Men have to take all the responsibilities so assholes like the author here never have to grow up and accept them. Thats fucking disgusting.

CORNDOGCOMMANDO · 2012-07-16T22:04:39+00:00

Oh man, that line no responsibility to their family...maybe if woman wouldn't divorce men as much they would stick around and take care of their family.

iamaom · 2012-07-17T07:51:29+00:00

That woman's expression in the picture is hilarious.

2012-07-17T16:48:28+00:00

If the female/male is wealthy, and he/she has custody of the child, the other parent should have no legal obligation to pay the mother/father of that child.
