    The child support paid by the father should be deducted from his gross income when applying for housing assistance and other loans and government aid.

    First of all I would like to draw attention to your ability or inability to express yourself intelligently. I understand your frustration when it comes to this law however you need to educate yourself as far as the circumstances surrounding it. Unless you have all the facts regarding child support laws in the United States please do not put your opinions out there on such an important platform. I happened to be a woman who has been victimized by the child support system for over 30 years. Note I said woman yes female. My daughters were given to a two-time convicted sex offender to whom I owe the equivalent of about $60,000 to. I've had my license taken 3 times after getting it back and I've lived with the fear of this man possibly victimizing my children as well. The courts basically gave him the right to legally rape me for the rest of my life. So take your anger towards your ex, put it on the shelf then come back and rewrite this without being a chauvinistic jerk.

    I never would of believed how corrupt family law is till my ex wife heard from her friends how easy it is to play it. Well 2400 a month they wanted me to pay her for 2 kids with free rent from Are house while I was thrown on the streets . They get to spend the money on anything they want. What makes me more ****ed is if I want to better my self and get a better job she gets more money how am I suppose to compete with her and her new man when she will just keep getting more free money. I have to get a new place to stay then buy new toys and house stuff while she gets 60 percent of my pay. The also need to make judges reliable for fake PFA’s they throw at us men with no proof at all judge believed that I googled on my sons iPad how to throw nails in driveway and burn a house down my ex showed pic of a iPad and the judge threw a PFA at me for 2 years lost my guns I can’t get anything out of my house and 400 dollar fine (insane) Family law and child support is so corrupt they had 17 cops come to my house with 2 snipers and had ar15’s pointed at my girlfriends kids 14 and 8 years old they wouldn’t let their mom near them and told there grandma that I had their grandchildren held hostage in the house when they came to get me for unpaid child support all the roads were blocked near my place and I wasn’t even at that place I was out in the woods 10 miles away cutting wood. But they threw a fine at me for that one some how and threw me in jail for 34 days. I was married for 10 years but with my ex for 14 years never had the cops called or children services called on us but if u look at my court documents after she filed for divorce and went for that free alimony and child support all of a sudden I am the worst violent dad ever with no proof just made up stories and judge believed every word and threw more and more fines at me . Please help this insane money racketeering fraudulent no rules family courts it’s been a year of hell but I am close to getting my kids back.

    A minor ex-girlfriend of mine after breaking up came back and asked me if I would service her female needs LOL she was medically infertile her whole life so I saw no problem with it what I didn't know what she had had a fertility operation in the eight months I hadn't seen her and conceived within 3 NSA visits. Now I am another miserable and partially insane human being I refuse to see the child until she ends this lawsuit against me bankrupting me and ruining my life preventing me from having a real wanted family. It seems that the liberal heart bleeds for everything but men if I was simply able to refuse paternity signing off my rights would have been best but I wasn't allowed. Second best would have been if they granted me equal custody and made sure we both put whatever amount welfare would pay a child to make sure it's healthy into an account we could both use during our time with the child and be transparent to each other that we had spent money on that child. Instead I went from a normal guy to someone who might commit horrible crimes but I can't stop thinking about a good percentage of my constitutional rights are violated by this it seems to be the only intentionally gender-biased ridiculous law in a time when everybody cares about LGBT rights and things that have no direct impact on their life more than anything. I can't stress to you the psychological impact this enforced inequality has had on my psychological condition it's probably not going to end well.

    I am a Father of 3 on child support in 2 states living in a 3rd with my family. With my second daughter, I get no visitation, phone calls, anything. I offered to pay for parties aside the child support and continue to be denied by the mother while she is collecting. My sons mother collected child support while I had custody of him for 7 years. Trying to work a 40 hour a week job, take care of a family while on child support has led to me being homeless twice. When trying to get any assistance, I get denied because they look at my net income before the deductions from child support. I don't think the laws for father's are fair especially for us who really want to be in our children's lives. I get treatment that is absolute disrespectful from the mother's, the judge's, etc. & I'm continuing being denied when asking for an adjustment. Im no six figure guy living in a big house, how can I live like this? If you don't pay, they suspend your driver's license you need to drive to work to pay the child support which lead to other financial woes. Please do something about with the laws that make it affordable to live, care, and spend time with our children.

    You tell me how fair this is? A woman has 5 kids 4 of which she left at the hospital 1 she kept. Why did she keep the one? She knew who the father was. After telling someone your tubes are tied you end up pregnant? But how? Did Jesus come to you and put a baby in you? absolutely not. Everything she said was a lie her tubes where never tied. The question we have to ask ourselves is this.? If i would have not been the father would she have kept that little boy or put him up for adoption? ( remember she has 5 kids only kept 1)So now i suffer. 462 dollars in child support + insurance. So i may right at 800 dollars a month. It gets better. Im not allowed to talk or see the child. WoW??? Ask child support about that they say thats not my problem. Lets think about this together. You really like this house you see in this beautiful neighborhood its perfect for your family so you call the Realtor and tell them you want that house and they say great. So you do all the necessary paperwork and pay the deposit. The day you go to move in you get a phone call that says oh i forgot to tell you you have a 18 year mortgage of 800 dollars a month. you dont get to live in it or see it. If you dont pay that mortgage you will go to jail. How would the people at child support feel if this was to happen to them. In closing if a person with aids dont tell their partner they have aids and their partner ends up with aids then its crime. But yet as a society we allow women to lie to men about being fixed and there is no justice for that. There is no justice for that but there is for me because now im a criminal in the eyes of child support and state. Before child support i had never been in trouble with the law and im 32. Since child support i have been arrested and have had driver licences suspended threaten to get put back in jail, treated like a common criminal and why? Because of a woman lies and there is nothing i can do about it. If i have to pay then i should have all the rights she has. As a father of 2 kids which i have custody of my daughter from my previous marriage, my son i dont get to see or talk to but i have to pay. So im by far not what child support tries to make you out to be which is a dead beat dad. i work hard every day to make sure my daughter and my step children have everything i didnt.

    Dispicable system where fathers work all week long, only get to see their children on the weekend while these mothers are doing whatever they want with this obligatory money and in some cases not ever spending a dime of their own on the child, and also get to have their weekends free.

    As a father, who is in a relationship; that is going nowhere, is not mentally benefiting my child, and is depriving me of freedom, I feel I have no choice but to stay forcefully committed and miserable for the rest of my life. The fear of paying close to a thousand dollars a month in child support, keeps me bound to the unhealthy relationship I am in. I want the best for my child. I chose to sacrifice my happiness to benefit her as a father figure who can be in my child's life whenever I please, versus benefiting my child financially while receiving poverty level wages after child support would be taken out. The current laws in place force men to live in bad circumstances, regardless if they are in a bad relationship or divorced/separated from the child's mother. The laws are tilted in favor of women, even if they are financially incapable of supporting a child without government assistance. The laws, as they currently stand, are unfair to men in many different walks of life. If child support laws were non-sexist and adjusted to allow outcomes tp fit each unique situation, I would be able to comfortably separate from my child's mother while not living at poverty level.

    I feel that child support on fathers is ridiculous and unfair. What does the government expect fathers to do live in a card board box. With the cost of living fathers can't afford to live. The government never takes in affect on how Mothers who receives child support is. Most of the time it is just because of greed. When dealing with child support the government needs to take in affect all of the case and facts before making there decisions. I am a mother who raised 3 kids on her own and I'm still standing up for fathers with unreasonable child support. Just because some men are dead beat parents doesn't mean all men should be treated with the same cases. also the government is making fathers look bad to there children because as I know from being a step parent that half the mothers who receive child support doesn't even use it to take care of there children. But if you call drinking, drugs, nails, hair, and gambling trips ect. Taking care of there kids with the child support money then go ahead. I could go on forever with bull crap on how child support is not reasonable. But good luck to the fathers who try and get treated like shit. I support you a 100% against mothers who are greedy and selfish!

    Coram non judice, Latin for "not before a judge," is a legal term typically used to indicate a legal proceeding that is outside the presence of a judge (without a judge), with improper venue, or without jurisdiction. A women should pay a portion of child support back if she don't have any good reasons why she need support for 20 plus year's a kid is no excuse. if she's on welfare section 8 and collect any taxes. If that women don't have any medical condition she should be sued for fraud clearly it is. She getting away with stealing and the state seems to be okay with it. TROXEL V. GRANVILLE,”  The liberty interest at issue in this case the interest of parents in the care, custody, and control of their Children is perhaps the oldest of the fundamental liberty interestsrecognized by this court. More than 75 years ago in Meyer V. Nebraska, 262, U.S. 390,399,401 (1923), we held that the “liberty” Protected by the Due Process clause includes the right of parents to “establish a home and bring up children” and” to control the education of their own”. Two years later in Pierce V. Society of sisters, 268 U.S. 510,534-535 (1925), we again held that the“Liberty of parents and guardians” includes the right” to direct the upbringing and education of children under their control.” We explained in Pierce that” [ t ]he child is not the mere creature of the State; those who nurture him and direct his destiny have the right coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare him for additional obligation”. Id at 535. We returned to the subject in Prince V. Massachusetts, 321 U.S. 158 (1944), and again confirmed that there is a constitutional dimension to the right of parents to direct the upbringing of their children”. It is cardinal with us that thecustody, care and nurture of the child reside first in the parents, whose primary function and freedom includes preparation for obligations the state can neither supply nor hinder.” at 166 42 U.S. Code § 601 (d) - Purpose.” No individual entitlementThis part shall not be interpreted to entitle any individual or family to assistance under any State program funded under this part. 42 U.S. Code § 666 - Requirement of statutorily prescribed procedures to improve effectiveness of child support enforcement. Voluntary paternity acknowledgment.—(i)Simple civil process.—Procedures for a simple civil process for voluntarily acknowledging paternity under which the State must provide that, before a mother and a putative father can sign an acknowledgment of paternity, the mother and the putative father must be given notice, orally, or through the use of video or audio equipment, and in writing, of the alternatives to, the legal consequences of, and the rights (including, if 1 parent is a minor, any rights afforded due to minority status) and responsibilities that arise from, signing the acknowledgment.

    I am a mother of two and even I know the system is corrupt and biased against fathers! They don't care that my husband's child support pretty much pays for his ex gf to live nice and easy on housing with her two kids with the "child support" for his daughter. We have a daughter together and a home and now he has to work even more and now will see her less bc of it. I thought women wanted to be equal as men? Your just making them be lazy and now if they have a kid they are set if the person has money. He pretty much pays for her whole household and lives nice and coomfy. Child extortion
