We've already heard of cases where a man loses his high paying job, and
the only thing a judge does is tell him to take on another job, or get a
better one.

=======
I'm not sure what post you are responding to but I don't think I posted anything
counter to your opinion. In fact, when my husband's CS was doubled after we were
married and had two little ones, the judge told him if he couldn't afford the
1200. a month he should get a second job. This is a man who already works about
60 hours a week not to mention that our little ones need their father's
nurturing as well. Further evidence that the system works in the best interest
of the CP and state--certainly *not* the best interest of children--in this
case, "our" children.


Why would anyone have MORE children if they couldnt afford the first
ones? Just have more and more children and use that as an excuse to
get out of paying support.

====
Who said we couldn't afford the first ones? Do you read this stuff at all or is
your ego so large that you feel empowered to just spew unintelligable crap and
it will be correct?
====

Ive seen some of you post that when a woman has more children they are
stupid and just do it to get the extra money. However gini has just
proven why men have additional children, so they can get their support
lowered or at least thats the underlying reasons for them asking for
support to be lowered.

===
You are incredibly uninformed. WE did not request a lowering of support. We
contested an increase in support which is in accordance with the controlling
state's jurisdiction. If you can't keep up at least have enough pride to not
humiliate yourself with your floundering intellect.

Here is where you are wrong again BOB.

"Some" states do not designate 18 as the age of emancipation. This
would first of all debunk your expertise in the area of child support.


Two points - States do not have the authority to write laws that over-ride
federal IRS laws. And the word "emancipation" refers to a minor child no
longer living under the direct supervision of a parent and applies only to
pre-18 children's living situation. You have mixed the state CS laws that
set the upper limit on CS paid directly to the CP with what I am saying
about children becoming adults as defined under federal law and how their
age impacts tax filing options.


I forgot to mention one other thing . . . FFK has now switched her identity
to . "None" is using the exact same cable modem Internet
hook-up address as Fighting, who used the same cable modem as CJ.

Never said I was the sister, either. Heh, heh. Hell, I might be his
neighbors cat...

You are right in one thing though, they both did something wrong. Him, he
married the stupid cow because he did the "right thing" (she was pregnant).
She wanted someone to be her slave and kowtow to her will, answer her ever
beck and call. When he wouldn't do it, she went after his wallet and all
his worldly possesions.

And yes, you can paste my name in neon lights all over the planet as a
supporter of beat-dead Dads (and Moms)!! I'll enjoy the publicity!!

Oh, yes, I do agree with the idea that owing $58k in CS is unacceptable -
especially when nearly 50% of it is actually state fees, penalties and the
12.5% interest per month that they tack on!!!

...

The question should be, do you ever learn?

Obviously from other posts you are the "sister" that somehow thinks
its acceptable for your brother to not help pay for the children that
he makes.

You seem to think that everything is the X's fault, when in fact it
usually is both that have done something wrong.

How about you add your name to the list of deadbeat supporters, child
neglectors?

$58,000 for two years is totally unaccpetable. I would say from all
your posts that your brother is evading child support not down on his
luck. How many "jobs" has he actually had over this two year period?

Good grief. Don't you ever learn?

I'd like to know just how much you suck from the teat of GovCo's Divorce
Industry...

Please tell us how much you -gain- over your regular pay check. Unless
popping out kids and collecting CS from unsuspecting fathers IS your

job...

Oh, and it's not me that owes CS - it's my brother. And at last count,

it
was around $58k for 24 months of non-payment because of a lack of work.

I've never seen anyone in more dire need of a bitch slap in my life then

I agree. I think that there should be some kind of accountability on each
parents part. I also think that those who do not pay support on time and
fall behind so much should NOT be allowed to get away with it.

Studies do show that states highest in child support and welfare payments
rank lowest in child well-being (in fact, this information was presented
to
this very same committee in 1995).

Where? What study?

Why? Money is a destabilizer or put
differently, a single-parent household enabler. What was responsible for
increasing child well-being?

Usually these studies concentrate on what the state itself spends on things
such as education, medical coverage, ect not on what impact child support
has on the children. You yourself said how could any study dictate such
things if they dont have any accountability where the money is spent and no
one really knows how much is actually spent on the child. The two dont
correlate at all.

The intact family, something not terribly
popular with society's "me, me, me" attitude. Divorces increase during
economic boom times and decrease during tough times. Child support, like
welfare, creates an individual economic boom (without requiring work, no
less).

And raising a child alone is not work?


Sure it is, but GOOD parents don't ask somebody else to pay them for
doing it...

A recent study showed that a stay at
home parent has as much stress and responsiblity as someone who works TWO
full time jobs. So a single parent who has NO support from the NCP has to
do this PLUS work a job to support their family (as statistics show "most"
NCP's dont pay support on a regular basis nor do they pay the full amounts
ordered). Get off the "CP's" dont work.


Fruit Kake, of course, doesn't require that anyone make such an

A-HA!!! I got it!! FFK/SFM/None@ is from an alternative dimension and is

her. No one can truely be that dumb and be allowed to walk and chew bubble
gum at the same time... But just in case...

It's "you're" as in "you are" or "You're confused."
I believe you where attempting to say, "You're confused, it doesn't surprise
me." Or you could have been attempting to say, "You have me confused, which
doesn't surprise me." Or it may have been you where attempting to blather..
"I'm so confused, don't surprise me!" Or you may well have thought to say,
but your fingers couldn't move to the appropriate keys because of the
medication you're on.. "I'm so stupid, I can't form coherent sentences much
less type them in an intelligible manner for others to read."

Which one is it?

And while you're at it - pick a friggin' name and stick to it!!!!

Read the post again fruitkake2...particularly the part where fruitkake1
wrote: " No one knows but this guy does? Contridicting yourself.",
indicating that the person posting "this guy"s research posted the
researchers estimate as fact, which he didn't.

fruitkake1 responded to a post which didn't even attempt to make the
point to which fruitkake1 thought he was responding - proving that
"fruitkake" is more fitting than anything denoting "for kids".

And now comes fruitkake2 who seems to think *I* posted the original
article. Apparently fruitkake2 is jealous of the frutkake rating of
fruitkake1 and is attempting to show himself more deserving of it...

However in the sentence before that you posted "Nobody
knows
how much of the money ever reaches the child." This professor is just one person, who yes, estimates his own figures. Im sure that there are other professors that would estimate something different.

And this...............
Aside from the fact that parents are forced into exile by our child
support
laws, no study has ever shown child support to help children. And how
could
it, since no accountability is required of custodial parents. Custodial
parents can spend this tax-free gift

Tax Free how do you figure? Its already taxed, do you propose it be taxed
twice ?

on anything they want: booze, drugs,
new clothes, a new car, vacations - maybe even on the children. Nobody
knows
how much of the money ever reaches the child. UCLA Professor William S.
Comanor estimates that only $1 in $5 of child support actually is spent on
the child.

No one knows but this guy does? Contridicting yourself.

Why not adopt the same documentation rules for custodial parents
that the IRS requires for tax deductions? Ditto for penalties and fines.

I agree. I think that there should be some kind of accountability on each
parents part. I also think that those who do not pay support on time and
fall behind so much should NOT be allowed to get away with it.

Studies do show that states highest in child support and welfare payments
rank lowest in child well-being (in fact, this information was presented
to
this very same committee in 1995).

Where? What study?

Why? Money is a destabilizer or put
differently, a single-parent household enabler. What was responsible for
increasing child well-being?

Usually these studies concentrate on what the state itself spends on things
such as education, medical coverage, ect not on what impact child support
has on the children. You yourself said how could any study dictate such
things if they dont have any accountability where the money is spent and no
one really knows how much is actually spent on the child. The two dont
correlate at all.

The intact family, something not terribly
popular with society's "me, me, me" attitude. Divorces increase during
economic boom times and decrease during tough times. Child support, like
welfare, creates an individual economic boom (without requiring work, no
less).

And raising a child alone is not work?

Sure it is, but GOOD parents don't ask somebody else to pay them for
doing it...

A recent study showed that a stay at
home parent has as much stress and responsiblity as someone who works TWO
full time jobs. So a single parent who has NO support from the NCP has to
do this PLUS work a job to support their family (as statistics show "most"
NCP's dont pay support on a regular basis nor do they pay the full amounts
ordered). Get off the "CP's" dont work.

Fruit Kake, of course, doesn't require that anyone make such an
assertion before making the "get off" it statement...what a loser : )

om...
Failure to pay child support is "the only crime in this country that
causes
poverty," Jensen said. "These parents are lawbreakers. They've
abandoned
their children and have failed to meet the most basic obligation a
parent
has."


What about the crime of have having a child and keeping a child (as
opposed to adoption) that you are not able to support in the first
place. I don't see anyone being prosecuted for that.

And then there's this from Professor Sanford Braver...
"In fact, no evidence exits that large numbers of father voluntarily
abandon their children. No government or academic study has ever
demonstrated such an epidemic, and those studies that have addressed the
question directly have concluded otherwise."
