The system is so corrupted! The judge only listen to the mother even she lied about things (accusing the father bad-mouthing about the mom, which is untrue) and gave her every thing she wants. At the meantime, the judge by default assumed the father a bad guy from the beginning and would not believe anything he said, leaving him less than $600 a month to live in NYC. Now the father cannot even afford to fly to another state to pick up his kid, even the mother moved to another state against the father's will. This is what happened to my BF. We have been fighting for almost 3 years and have spent tons of money on attorney fee and have accumulated so much debt because of this. I so regretted that I had too much faith in the judiciary system in this country. I hope something will be done to change this.Mar 24th, 2013Someone from Norfolk, VA signed.

if dads have to pay child support then the mom needs to be working and show proof that the money is being spent on the kids and better yet whe the dad has 50/50 then he should not have to pay anythingREPORT COMMENTS

The system have to many cons to any support paying parent . I can't sum up being over garnished or the factual documents the judge did not take a look towards the support my child was receiving . Then once I became part of the system the lack of help with garnishment correction is shameful. I have other children. Providing for all 3 is difficult with the different amounts drawn from my pay and taxesREPORT COMMENTS

Me and the ex have an amenable situation. She was told recently for her to keep the aid she needs, she'll need to file for child support. If she doesn't then the amount of aid will be reduced. At this point aid is needed, and I provide some help on top of that off the books. There is no need of anyone to get involved in our agreement. But I can't support her and me and everything. And if I try to, I WILL lose my home and then my job.REPORT COMMENTS

the way the child support laws are are only a punishment to the fathers out there that actually want to be fathers to their children. it's almost like the government or the people who make these laws want to make it as hard as possible for those of us who want to be good fathers to our children. I divorced my son's mother because she had a drug problem. I went to court to try and get custody of my son but because she and her family have money they had a better lawyer and the courts decided to let my son stay with her ( totally unbelievable ) and give me 48% custody so that she would still get the full support money. my sons mother has a good job, a boyfriend that she lives with who has a good job, a house that they own, and my support money !! they spoil my son soo much that he doesn't even care if he comes to my house or not. because of this support and trying to raise my own daughter I literally don't have any extra money to buy the things he wants or that I would like to buy for him so he does not have near the things here with me that he has at his mother's house. as a ten year old he only sees what he has to do there compared to what we have and what we have to do here. the child support laws need to be on a case by case basis not one law for every situation. Everyone's situations are different so the stipulations of child support and custody should be different. I am tired of being the lesser of the two parents just because I did the right thing for my children. the law is soo flawed and I cannot believe there is not more being done about it.REPORT COMMENTS

Child support is unfair for the Non-Custodial Parent. I pay 45% of my net pay and the Taxes on this Money. I also have the expense when they are with me EVERY Saturday thru Tuesday night with NO credit. Child Support is Legalized Extortion..... Do something about it.REPORT COMMENTS
