Child Support System is Disgraceful
Is This Happening to You?
Embed:
I am extremely puzzled, and very disgruntled at the obvious outdated mess the Child Support system is in in this country. Where I live, it is a so called 'right to work' state. That said, I do not believe for one minute that if a person can consciously make a choice to reproduce, that he or she should have the right not to work.
From a personal perspective, I have seen much heartache caused not only by the way this prehistoric system is setup, but also the humiliation suffered by my husband in the past 8 years alone.
In this time, ex wife, who has 3 certified professions from various colleges, is permitted to sit at home on her butt, while my husband is expected to pay her a wage of $200 per week for doing so. I know this money is for the children, try telling her that. In the past 7 years, he has been in court 8 times, on all occasions it was nothing more than her pleading for more money.
Let me now share with you the most recent event. I am sure you will be as gobsmacked as I was at the outcome.
Being rightfully responsible for my step children's medical insurance, my husband was allowed to claim one of the children on his tax return to offset his 50% share of co-pays for medical treatment. He also paid that same amount for any medication required. This was not a problem at all, and since he had a great job making awesome pay things should have been left alone. Not so.
In Feb 2006 he was again summoned to appear in court, where said ex wife proceeded to break down in an academy award winning display of tears, claiming that he had "willfully refused and neglected" to forward funds as per agreed, for co-pays and medication for the 2 children. After being asked twice by the Judge had she actually paid these bills, she then paraded another round of heartbreaking emotion and said that she had, and as a result the children have suffered by not having adequate nutritional food and basic clothing necessities etc. These children always wear brand name clothing.....
