Wow...this really hits home with me because I am with a man who went through a terrible divorce with false accusations.
Yes, the court should err on the side of investigating. But realistically what happens is, like in our case, she made alligations just before major court decisions....far enough to get the allegations on the record, too close to have them properly investigated, and then refuted, before major decisions like custody and alimony are settled.
Should she have known she was nuts? Could he have been nicer, sweeter etc. of course. But to pay financially for the rest of his life? When she was the one who broke up the family and walked away? If she is unfulfilled and wants a chance at something "more"...fine...have your midlife crisis and move on. But to punish the kids without access to Dad while this *#*$*#^ get s worked out...and even worse making HIM pay your for the priviledge of breaking up the family? Not fair in my book.
If these guys are so horrible, and these feminists are so empowered as to not put up with it, why do they keep leaning on the men for the money? Child support I get...we all owe that...but alimony? Please.
Child support payments should be made into an account in the child's name with the custodial parent as trustee, accountable as any trustee is to rules of fiduciary conduct.
