It doesn't have to be the tax payers, it could be as simple as having a "joint account" where i could monitor where the money I spend on my kids goes to and even if I had to pay for the extra service it would be worth it imoOriginally Posted by kickstart
So why didn't/doesn't the father take full custody? Does the mother work, if so, can she afford all of the bills to have a sound environment for the child? Who makes more money? The scenario presented is based off hearsay. Just because the father says he has his son 5 out of 7 days doesn't mean he ALWAYS has him( although he possibly could). How much is child support?

I agree with Debs for the most part. I'd bet the majority of you don't know a trifling female like you are describing and just going off of movies and hearsay.In a perfect world, there would be no need for CS because both parties would've thought the whole thing through.
Hell, half the threads on NT advocate "Smash and Dash" and 85% of those advocates are reppin' TeamRaw. %+#@, when I first joined NT there was a thread talking about should I pay child support or buy new kicks. Thread: http://niketalk.com/topic/298009/Child-Support-FTL?page=1 It's selfishness at it's finest. {NOT JUSTIFYING BUT PUTTING IT OUT THERE It's wrong as hell for the mother to spend the money on herself, but at least she has a greater chance of finding another suitor help to "take care" of your offspring. NOT JUSTIFYING BUT PUTTING IT OUT THERE}
A third party in theory sounds good but who is going to pay for that extra service? I'm pretty sure taxpayers would boycott it. Both parties should be held equally accountable, but it's easier for females to get stuck with the "raw" end of the deal (not all women want children), so it makes sense for the system to be skewed towards them. And who is to support the child once they turn 18? Do both parents drop responsibility and the kid is left to fend for themselves?
My bestfriend, his dad was a single father raising two kids and was receiving CS, so it's not always one-sided. Just sayin'.
My bank account has given me money back for fraudulent transactions, if it's something I had to pay extra for I honestly don't care-I would pay ANYTHING to raise my kids just as long as it was going to them
With the amount some people pay, paying to make sure it's used for what its meant for is WORTH IT
