CHILD SUPPORT-I WANT MY MONEY BACK
Posted: 11/19/2007 8:39:20 AM
Hmm I think I live in the wrong province or country lol, My ex is ordered to pay $120/month, the last payment i got was 8 dollars and 19 dollars and nothing 4 months prior lol, I called FRO and they told me that he called them and told them is pay for the last few months were low and without proof or anything accepted if excuse.. now honestly i dont care about child support payments, yes i am a fulltime college student and a fulltime mom and no i dont let the gov't pay for me i have scholarships and bursiers and work part time. anyways my son doesnt go without due to the lack of support infact he is involved in a lot and has more than enough etc etc. my point is i would much rather my sons dad spend regular time with him then support. I dont hound him for support or have not taken him back to court as i feel no need since we are doing fine, and i figure if it snot needed why make for a hostile situation that would only effect my son. He already doesnt see his dad enough so i dont make the situation any worse so that we will see him more.

Child support should be in the best interest of the kids and yes more often than not, parents get more than they should or even needed. Most parents only think about the money and not about more important aspects for instance no amount of money could make my child any happier than the time he gets to spend with his dad.

Laws are messed up and i hope they do get revised sooner than later. and it is terrible that women automatically are believed and get what they asked for. Im sure i went off topic but, i would say the amount of money you get/dont get shouldnt be compared to the happiness and well being of your child.

anyways ill end here. Im not sure what the update is but i hope that things worked out for you and if you got primary you no longer were made to pay the child support or as much anyways, also it is good that you did all you did for your son, but i wouldnt expect the money back yea its frustrating but in the end atleast your son had new shoes and clothes and so on, if he wa sliving with you 100% of the itme those thigns you would have bought anyways and would have paid the money for extra food shelter etc, so count your loses so the child doesnt get put in the middle of anything..

P.s next order of business is to move!!! hahaha

with 50/50 split. Both parent are required to work. It is the both parents income that is considered. You must be making bucks to be paying her child- support. If she's on "welfare" then your "Not" giving her child- support or "enough" If you been through all of that... legal/ emotional/ and mental hell then why drag it out even more? Waste thousands of dollars? She's the mother of your son! You sound very bitter. Get over yourself....

interesting post..... my kids are all grown up now, and on their own. I remember child support though, and my divorce. Right after my divorce, what i remember was that here we were, two grown adults, both working, and trying to still battle one another, and usually it was over the child support. What is different in my situation, was that 6 years into my divorce, we switched custody, and i paid him, child support. My kids were 5 and 3 , when we got our divorce. All in all, my ex- husband and me, matured over the years, stopped battling with each other , as we both enjoyed and struggled watching our kids grow up.Thank God , we all maintained some sense of dignity over all those divorce years. My kids are now 23 and 21. Imagine how i felt, right after my divorce, way back... custody of my 5 and 3 year old, receiving child support of 400 dollars a month... and working fulltime. I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW IF I COULD GO THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THAT AGAIN- it was plain WORK, and a lot of doubt, and scary also.... thanx for this post, and good luck to you all... sign me, - - Been there, and done it all, for the sake of my children---.......

Good luck on getting anything back in going through the same thing almost, but i dont get my child 50% maybe 10%. Even though it suppose to be every weekend,half the summer, half March break and other holidays. Its been going on 4 years so we are going back 2 court cause im trying of this bullshit, also i pay over half on daycare which he hasnt gone 2 for the last 2 years, cause my Mom watch him most the time after school amd he is 11 years of age. So why am i paying this to her when my mother is watching him.
I tell you why cause of the other dead beat DADS is why we get screwed. Once again good luck on your problem and it cost money to go back to court. You might not still get the results you are looking for???????????
