Show me where I said that, nooB, and stop being an idiot.
The "little girl" crap is uncalled for. But I suspect you may lack the elan to understand that.
Think before you post, nooB.
Never said little girl, and never said you said it was OK to anything. You just got your panties in a wad over the little girl comment not even directed to you and stopped thinking. I guess you think name calling is OK, since you called me a "nooB" ??? and an idiot. You do act like a little girl though. Grow up.
I have rules here on FR. I don't engage with people who:
Atribute an opinion to me which I never stated.
Take me deliberately out of context.
Come off aggressively from the start in a pathetic attempt to intimidate. (Don't waste your time; you're clearly no match for me. Better men than you have failed.)
You have violated all three.
Therefore, I am through with you. Buh-bye! ;-)
I'm sorry! I started a discussion with a fool, which is my fault. That's the problem with this medium, fools like you can lurk and hide.
Here's some weekend reading for ya:
Neanderthal ping.
Let's look at this from a different direction....
A woman is raising your kids... both of your kids. Not her kids, not his kids - your in the dual sense - kids! It takes two, remember!?
Kids are expensive. Mom is probably working AT LEAST one full time job to help supplement the $880 you are ordered to pay each month.
You stop making your payments... because of alcoholism....depression...whatever...
What are your kids going to live on while you take a mental health break from life? Would you prefer the mother and the children to be homeless because of their mentally weak father/ex-husband?
What will the kids wear to school, eat for dinner?
Who pays for their doctor bills, new sneakers, the new doll your daughter always wanted?
Why does no one see it from the child's point of view?
Or, how about the single mother who is desperately trying to keep it together while her ex-husband is in rehab?
Blame the woman... she was a whore/slut/b*tch and doesn't deserve anything...blahblahblah...
Same old neanderthal rhetoric from the knuckle draggers around here.
I agree with you....
They are trying to justify killing an ex-wife because she is "forcing them" to pay for THEIR CHILDREN!
Good grief....
Don't have them if you don't want them --- for the rest of your life! Kids are forever!
BS....
No one is living off $880/month with kids these days.
She's probably working two jobs just to keep the kids in food, shelter and clothing.
She probably wouldn't trust him to babysit their kids - with his bouts of "depression and alcoholism".
HE is an unfit parent, who ignores his responsibilites!
If the support payment was unfair... he should petition the court to have it lowered - he should not just think he's getting away with not supporting HIS KIDS!
Your situation has nothing to do with this story.
For you...
DO: See a lawyer and get it fixed.
DON'T: Blame every women in the world for your situation.
My daughter is paying her ex child support. She works from home and is their day care provider before and after school 5 days a week regardless of whether or not it is her "custody" time, otherwise they share custody...one week with dad, one week with mom.
Dad was clever enough to manipulate the calendar so that we has custody of the kids ONE MORE DAY PER YEAR. Based upon court ordered calculations, she pays him.
It just says it all so....eloquently. ;-)
It just says it all so....eloquently. ;-)
There's a weird warp between here and Jim Rob's sever in California....
Moral to the story....
It's dangerous to marry a scumbag, even if he started out in sheeps clothing.
I just pray that no one takes these disagreements out on the kids.
Yep, we'd best be careful about whom we choose to mate with, married or otherwise.
>I get to say it a second time today:
>Men are legally slaves to their ex-wives and children.
And that, my friend, is the truth.
Don't tell me you are advocating that the taxpayers should pick up the tab. In the grand scheme of things, these are personal squabbles. No offense, but I don't think my tax dollars should be used for your relative's life choices.
That's exactly it! So many people spout off about the poor guy who has to pay too much when they are out of work, etc. As a single mother who is putting two sons through college, and my ex- just got back to work after being laid off after 911, I have done my homework.
Each parent pays a percentage toward raising the child, depending on each parent's income and employability. If the financial situation of either parent changes, a simple modification to the child support order can be filed. No rocket science involved. Maybe a $25 filing file. I know, because I did it!!!!
Since all this support is supposed to be in the best interest of the child, maybe it is also a good idea for the parents to communicate as well. (Duh!) My ex- kept me informed of his situation, and he helped out when he could. And the kids still respected him for at least trying. Can't stress it enough: Whatever is in the best interests of the child!
