"Yet you want to punish a child as the result of an adulterous
situation," said Briley. "You put the child in the position of bearing
the burden of a parent's conduct."


I just don't get this argument. Isn't this politician saying CS money is
more important than factual reality and truth should be ignored when there
are signs of immorality?

To accept this argument one has to ignore it is the mother who gets
pregnant as the result of her sexual misconduct outside of a relationship
or with multiple partners and believe the biological father should have no
responsibility.

You really have to use pretzel logic to advocate for the status quo when
it comes to obvious inequities in CS law.


The whole idea is so disgusting!! As if a child is owed money from a
man--any man--and to not receive the money from whatever man mom points to
is child abuse! Where do these idiot politicians get their ideas? You've
got to wonder if the lot of them have children by "outside interests" where
other men are paying what they, themselves, should be paying.
