going to the top dogs
I have had enough with shit with child support! I am ready to snap at any moment. Why won't they do anything about my case? He never pays until he goes to court. They schedule his court dates 3 to 4 months apart and then only make him pay $300-$400 when he shows up to court. His order is to pay $91 per week with an additional amount of $9 for back child support...so that brings his grand total to $100 per week.
Question....How can the court wait 4 months for a court date and then only ask him to pay $300 in child support? There is something wrong here! He waits 4 months for court and does not even have to pay one full month when he gets to court. He is now over $7,400 behind.
I sent an e-mail to the governor to see if he will do anything about it because child support and the court system do not seem to care.......what do I have to lose? I will let you know if I hear back from the top dogs.

Good luck with getting some help. I don't understand why men think it's ok to father children but then don't want to help support them.
Try your state attorney general too, I don't know if it will help but it can't hurt. It's a shame that a man can father a child but can't pay for the child. I am proud of my brother who was dating a woman with a small boy, they were together for a few years, but when they broke up he kept helping out with money for the boy and now a girl that was born. Though he could have not paid a dime, they weren't his children by blood, but he considered them his children in every other regard, he helped pay for their school, clothes and a thousand and one other things they needed. And today, the boy is a man, graduated last year from high school and though he knows my brother isn't his real father he thinks of him as a father. My brother did without a lot during the years to make sure those kids had what they needed, more men should be like him.
Good luck! I have been lucky with my ex hubby's child support, but when he changes jobs, I imagine I am going to be in for one hell of a ride getting it all straightened out.
Hi Dawn, Sorry about all this legal crap. The system has to change. Good luck and get all you can.
Keep your chin up...remember what goes around comes around. You may be able to have them garnish his wages. I have a friend who owes almost $20,000 in back child support. He's got a wife and 2 kids and is certainly paying for past mistakes.
Good luck and don't give up. Check online for agencies that help collect back child support. Keep it up- you're fighting the good fight!

I wish it could be that simple...James had a job but quit as soon as he got his child support order.
