Sometimes these dads aren’t ALLOWED by the bitter hateful ex to see his kids. On top of that, she’s likely spending the money on herself instead of on the kids like she’s supposed to.

Wow, this person was putting his child support obligations on someone else. And WoW are those child support payments high. For a person who gets 50K a year, that is ridiculous. Here it is... When my husband and I decided to temporarily separate, we agreed to no child support payments. The children lived primarily with me, and we acknowledged that we would keep the kids in hour home while he and I switched off staying in the house. One week me, one week him. However, on our off week, we did not deny each other any time with the children. Our kids were the ones being uprooted. I managed to arrange to stay with family, while he managed to stay with a friend. We paid our out of home situation rent and bills. In all, this was far less scary for our kids, and it kept up out of child support court. We've been back together for years. But I know that as our children watched up assure them a sense of stability and security, I know they appreciated it.
