Not all of us. Some family courts are prone to impose support orders not based on what a man earns, but on what the court thinks he should earn. Anyone who thinks the U.S. has done away with debtors prison should think again. This just might be a contributing factor in the 400% disparity between male and female suicide.

Yep I went through that one. And they will lock you up for not paying child support (which is interesting since how are you going to pay child support in prison). However the reverse is not true. Years later when I got full custody of the children, the ex paid not a dime of child support even though she was ordered to do so.
