I have been pointing out the evils of child support/family court power for years, I know two father friends whose lives were ruined when their wife/wives ran off with their kids to another state, and the other another country, then successful sued them for child support for kids who were basically kidnapped from them.
There is no justice or Due Process. In Maryland they suspend the fathers license over CS then arrest them for driving to the courthouse for hearings, or arrest them for not showing up at the court house for hearings.
I got fed up with Judge Judy because she is obsessed with CS.
Nothing against extracurricular activities but when a child is doing nothing but kicking a soccer ball around (and tens of other activities) on dad's time, said child has zero bonding time and feel for dad's activities. Just another control mechanism.
She works at Child Protective Services so she made a phoney report and charged hubby with "age inappropriate work" for allowing a 11, 9 and 5 year old to empty their room's waste paper baskets. And it STUCK with her office cronies (he was placed on the NYS Child Abuse and Maltreatment Register) until I got it reversed after 6 months of paperwork and contacting local representatives. They reviewed the report and agreed that it was "unfounded" due to Malicious Mother syndrome. We no longer see them as they have "new" daddy now (google: Parental Alienation)
