Child support isn't really for the child, it's for the mother. Were it otherwise, she would have to give the authorities evidence that the money was being spent on rent, food, clothing and so on.

[–]xNOM 8 points9 points10 points 7 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Well that would be impractical. More practical would just base it off what a child actually costs. It's not a big mystery. We do it for senior citizens all the time. This is what they do in the Sweden for example.

[–]Rockbottom503 4 points5 points6 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I’ve said this for years - it’s not difficult to estimate how much it costs to feed and clothe a child, or the basic rent difference between a 1 and 2 bedroom flat in a particular area etc etc and then divide those costs in two...... That should really be the limits of court enforced child support as far as I’m concerned; what meets basic needs! I just don’t get the reasoning behind basing awards on absent parents income when that has precious little to do with the actual costs involved in supporting the child!

[–]ThePigmanAgain 1 point2 points3 points 7 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Nothing impractical about it. In parts of Australia this is already being done with welfare payments. Don't see why it can't be done with child support. I can see reasons why it WON'T, certainly, but not reasons why it CAN'T!

[–]xNOM 1 point2 points3 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Just seems like less paperwork?

[–]Unused_UserID 0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

I have thought about this and I just don't see how making her account for the money would even be helpful. She would just show that your $500 went to the rent and the utilities making things no different than they are now. It really is just extra money for her no matter how she accounts for it because if she uses your money to pay the bills then her money can spent on whatever she wants. If she uses her money to pay the bills and she uses your money to buy whatever she wants, what's the difference?

This idea is full of loopholes. As for failed relationships, child support encourages single motherhood.

[–]ThePigmanAgain 0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

If the money is electronically delivered and tracked, then at least the man can show that he is already paying enough when she petitions for more. It also stops her using his money to buy luxuries she can't afford on her own.

[–]Unused_UserID -1 points0 points1 point 7 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

So she uses his money to pay legitimate bills and then uses her own money to buy luxuries. Do you not understand what I am saying here?

By using his money to pay the rent and utilities it frees up her money to buy whatever she wants so in the end, there is just no point in tracking it.

[–]ThePigmanAgain -1 points0 points1 point 7 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

You are an idiot. Stop wasting my time, idiot.

[–]Unused_UserID 0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I have reported this post twice and nothing has happened. Is this kind of personal attack ok on this sub?

[–]Unused_UserID -1 points0 points1 point 7 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

There's no need to call me names.

Anyway, let me try to clarify once more. Say mom makes $1500 a month and the you pay her an extra $500 a month in child support. Now she has $2000 to spend on the bills and then whatever she wants. As long as the rent and the utilities meet or exceed $500 she can just report that your money was used to pay the rent and utilities. She will still have the same amount of money as she had before she had to report where she spent your money and all the extra paperwork made no difference.

I told you to stop wasting my time.

[–]foolishcreed 2 points3 points4 points 7 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

You can't change the law to require documentation of how the funds are spent either because it's sexist and misogynistic.

[–]Tgunner192 0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

but ironically enough, if you collect social security or public assistance in order to provide for a child, you absolutely are required to show itemized spending of how you spent the funds

[–]Unused_UserID 0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I've never heard of this. Can you elaborate?

[–]Cristi_Tanase 0 points1 point2 points 7 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Is just another tax on men... one that feminists will never ever talk about!
