You do know that non-custodial 'Moms' are about 5 times more likely to be deadbeats than non-custodial 'Dads'.

Ohhh Yeah!!! Aint that the truth!! Try getting support out of her when she was originally given custody, then a few years later decides to shack up with some loser. Now the kids are in the way, so what's does she do? Gives the kids to the father to raise. Trouble is, the divorce decree still has her as the custodial parent. Now the father not only has to reopen the case, but then get the court to make her pay child support. Good luck with that one.
