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.
My ex committed adultery, left, took my son, got full custody after I went through $30,000 fighting for custody and somehow its the man's fault?
She makes $42k, I make $50k and I pay $800 a month. In essence, she pays nothing to raise our son.
Oh and I see my son FOUR days a month. The courts say that's plenty. Sure.
So all you man haters keep living in your feminist fantasy world. Forced separation of children from a parent and confiscatory transfer of income are hardly conservative ideals. Are you ladies sure you're on the right forum?
