Child support and alimony should be for no longer than 2 years. Long enough for the woman to get back on her feet, and then she pays her own way.

On alimony I agree. In fact I think it should be abolished.

Child support? No. You breed them, you feed them. The needs of your children come first. That applies to both parents.

That would be fairness but men get no fairness, only the backhand of the law...

Usually, it's a man delivering that backhand. I know from experience. I had a family member who had to deal with the family court system, and the only time he was treated with any degree of fairness was when the judge was a woman. The male judges fell all over themselves trying to find some angle that would allow them to side with the mother.

If you want and get custody of the child then you get child support for two years. If you can’t or won’t pay for your children, give them up to the father.

Having a child shouldn’t mean you get a monthly ATM account.

The whole child support system is just the state taking over more of our rights and inserting the government into personal relations for 20 years.
