How does the father of the kids that work so hard to support them, end up paying almost 50% of your hard earned income to the mother? They don't take into fact that, there may be other money that is earned by the mother that isn't counted nor the bills that you have created together. How is an average guy supposed to survive while the mother will be getting new cars, on luxury vacations?? These laws need changed please!!!REPORT COMMENTS

It is theorized that the existing child support system is in place to perpetuate crime, encourage divorce, fill prisons, and lower the morale of the American public, while feeding any and all such existing agencies who enforce this system et al, with reimbursements, funds and resources. It is a system of greed and corruption that is hurting the American People and devaluing the family unit. Children grow up in a system that has taught them to con and neglect their fellow man. The system is tearing the family to shreds and something must be done about it! This petition serves as a proclamation against parasitical women, heartless enforcement agencies, greed-driven lawyers, unfair judges and the entirety of the corrupted family court legal system. We the people, do hereby declare that fairness and justice be served with the immediate action of a comprehensive restructuring or abolishment to the existing Child Support laws. The present-day family court system is immoral, unfair and biased in that it violates the constitutional rights of non-custodial parents. The enforcement of mandatory Child Support is, by American Law, a violation of multiple civil liberties (see debtor?s prison). It is a complete fallacy, and outright lie from the family court to state that they are working in the, "best interest of the child." This propaganda distorts the general public?s thinking in order to keep the existing system--as is, a money making machine for all but the Obligor. The family court system does NOT have the best interest of the child in mind, nor at heart. The best interest of the child is the involvement of two parents, or, if required, the one TRULY fit parent, and by nature, the absence of the unwilling parent from his/her life, as no child should feel burdensome for merely existing. Unfortunately, there are many women who fraudulently become impregnated and use the current family court system as a "career move" due to the guaranteed funds they can obtain by pure duress from unwilling fathers and unsuspecting men who never agreed to fatherhood. The sheer number of women who have claimed to have been on birth control pills, when in fact they were not, is an ugly statistic. These women have conned men, and yet, the system rewards them... A vast majority of married men absolutely do love their kids and want nothing more than to be in their children?s lives, but where the government FORCES these men against their own self-determination, to pay an amount that is FAR in excess of what the actual cost to raise a child is, (and in most cases have little or no visitation) it then only serves to destroy that man's sense of liberty, dignity and his survival potential. It's even worse when that man is branded a belittling term such as; DEADBEAT, for failing to create enough money to support the Obligee (Female) and his own self and/or current family. A greater frustration to the father, is that the money given to the mother in good faith, very ofteREPORT COMMENTS

Cs. It really is unfair I have full custody of my son since his mom abandoned him and they did not make her pay squat when I told them I did not want it. Then I had a lil girl with my next wife and after the state filed on me. We wne t to court and the mother told them she did not want support cause I already due everything I need to do I keep her Monday through Friday and pay for all medical and most of everything else. After she tells them this judge says it font matter I'm gona pay anyway. And gave me like a 5% discount on what I pay due to me having the kid most of the time. Crazy world we live in. I can only imagine what it would be like with a crazy money hungry mother after a free ride. It's unfair to everyone and mostly the kids. I know lots of dads who where in there kids lives until the moms or courts decided to reem them. It breaks up relationship s and people ought to be able to choose what they want to do for there kids. If a lady picks a miserable dog of a father, that is indeed there own fault. I don't expect anything from my sons mom I Handel it on my own as it was my choice to have the kid with herREPORT COMMENTS

The system is totally messed up! They move on and get married or move in with some guy and stay single so they can keep getting free money to do nothing. Some of them get alimony at the same time. Start a family max out their credit and then decide oh I'll get some child support. If a woman can decide she doesn't want it and walk away at birth with nobody able to stop her not even the bio dad. he is able to adopt but not keep her as the legal mother! but a man cant walk away. gotta get a lawyer and hope she lets you sign over your rights! The state of texas even says they wont even tell you anything about such processes because they dont "help people give up their children". what an ignorant blanket point of view. who are you to force anybody to do anything! the state has gone too far! nobody should be forced into anything by law and certainly not allowed by the good graces of the law to keep your labors earnings. Abolish child support laws as a whole! everybody deserves the choice to walk the path they want! either nobody gets out and both are totally required to be involved equally or the state does nothing at all!!! stay out!!REPORT COMMENTS

While every situation isn't the same, I will agree some women take advantage of the sytem, there are plenty who don't. I've seen comments on here where people complain $1000 a month is absurd or $400 or even $200. I'm a single mom supporting my child on my own. $1000 a month is what it costs me to have my son in daycare so I can work my full-time job, have medical insurance for my son, feed him, clothe him, have transportation to & from work / his school, provide a roof over his head. My rent is alone is $1500 a month & that cost has tripled from the $600 rent I used to pay in my area over the past 7 years..trust me I've looked really hard for a cheaper place but unless I want to live in a dangerous neighborhood and still pay $1000 a month on rent, then I don't really have another choice. Mind you my take home pay is 2600 a month - I don't receive child support, haven't filed because I don't want the system telling me how to raise my child. But in my case somewhere in the ballpark of $800 - $1000 would be half of what I spend on daycare, medical insurance, food, clothing, medication. How am I making it work? I'm racking up major credit card debt on the essentials (power, water, car insurance) working overtime, & constantly couponing. All of these comments make me so angry when people say women are getting rich off of child support payments. A majority of women don't even file like me because it's too much hassle for an already overloaded single mom to deal with. So yes, the system would work for those who really need it. It was designed that way...it was also designed to try and keep families intact.most of the time it is the man who leaves. If my son's father hadn't abandoned us then he could've stayed home with my son while I work (he works opposite hours than me) but he left when my son was 2 months old and I have had no choice but to take on that $1000 a month daycare payment by myself with one income. The system is corrupt & does need reform so that those who truly really need the assistance (like me) would trust it enough to use it - my fear is disrupting my son's life. He is 3 & has no recollection of his father & hasn't started asking. I don't want the system now telling me that a man who has been gone for 3 years now gets to see my son every other weekend - BC I know if I file for child support, he will ask for joint custody to lower his amount of child support & that would be the only reason & then he would probably just dump my son off on his parents & never spend time with him - confusing my son & putting him in a strange new situation just about money. I'd take food stamps over child support anyday - but I can't get that BC my income that barely pays the bills is too high. We have too many people working the system unnecessarily because it is old & too many people have learned how to work it & abuse it that it has become obsolete for the child's best interest. A real mom looking out for her child's best interest does what I am doingREPORT COMMENTS

i was making payments to my son's mother. After my son was almost three, she had another child. Drugs were discovered in her system and she lost our son and his sister until she went through a program to get him back. After getting him back she put me on child support. She lied and said i didn't give her no support for our son. I threw away the check stubs because I don't like paper trails. I never kept receipts . Big mistake because she stated i only gave 80 dollars since our son was born. We didn't go to court, because her case worker was able to decide our fate. Another mistake. The case worker listened to only her, and my income tax was taken due to my son mother lying. I received a letter stating I was 2,300 dollars behind!!! If i knew this i would have taken my chance in court, because there is a bible involved. I was thinking maybe she will tell the truth. Last mistake I will make on this child support system. I'm starting to keep receipts and old check stubs. I encourage everyone that has to pay child support to get a lawyer, no matter what cost. Always go to court and keep your receipts. I was counting on my tax return to take care of all i owed but it was taken. I am going to ask for adjustment on payments, and if denied do what i can to get my payments current. I'm writing letters to my Congressman, my Governor, Senator, and anyone representing the people of the United States and let them know after reading these comments things need to change. I appreciate everyone leaving comments because now I know I am not alone in this biased sorry system. Everything involves a lawyer now so don't go asking police why can't you visit your child. The court system rules, even the military is helpless against the judge. Stay calm and don't do nothing without a lawyer. A person without a lawyer is like Mike Tyson with no arms. You are going to lose.REPORT COMMENTS
