Support Court- No Increase When Getting SSI

I lost my job because of my disability. I was in and out of the hospital

[@katherineduke3232]

It's because there are a few people who don't have true disabilities and decide to cheat the system by acting like they don't. That's why the disability office will send investigators out to see if the person is employees or really doing ANYTHING that their application claims they can't do. With that being said, I know this guy isn't lying and is absolutely disabled. I'm disabled with hip dysplasia, and my dad AND little sister both have MS same as this guy. My sister has a particularly aggressive form but her meds have her under control so she is still working. MY dad worked with his milder form all the way until he started losing his ability to walk and started losing his memory and ability to retain information and for a FINANCE MANAGER for a car dealership, that's pretty important. So he now gets disability ssi and disability through the insurance. He can't work PERIOD. My sister works but idk how long she will be able to. This guy is young, and typically when you're THAT young with MS it is typically an aggressive form. And you know.... I feel for this woman too because she is stuck with the entire expense of a child she didn't make herself. She SHOULD be getting support. But what is he supose to do? MS is a deteriorating disease and when he spoke about numbers on the screen moving and getting blurry.... he likely has a lesion on his optic nerve which is common with MS patients. Both my dad and sister have that as well as SEVERE vertigo. She should be getting more help but it's not his fault that he can't provide it. It sucks but it is what it is.

You can tell by his speech and body movement that it's serious. She just being a witch and that's being nice about it

MS is degenerative....medicine can helps symptoms...there is no getting better...only worse. If you look at his right hand you can see it starting to stiffen....ive seen a good amount of people with MS, and spent time with them...once that hand has a contracture it's there for ever.... no more fingers....

I have a service dog. I had to have accommodations at work for my mental health issues, but with my hip problems it became too much. I’ve been out of work for a year, and I deal with my boyfriend’s family telling me I’m just lazy. They think I’m lying. Even when I tried to show them my medical records, my mri images, etc. they said “we don’t need to see it.” They refuse to believe I’m telling the truth and when I got an attorney who told me I had an extremely good case they said “they’ll just give anything to anyone.” This video warms my heart because it just showed me I’m not alone because his family makes me feel crazy sometimes.

She sounds like despicable human, MS is not something you can clearly see all the time but the joruney they take is extreme. Shame on her.

[@mikemesser4326]

My last manager has MS. Awesome manager. Thankfully his condition was a bit better. While working for him, I developed a condition with similar - though far less severe - symptoms. (The doctors did check me for sclerosis. So it is no picnic.) What the guy said about looking at screens is spot on. My condition created a tumor behind my right eye that almost had me blind before they got it under control. But staring at computer screens is still tough. (Obviously I still do so or I wouldn't be writing here. But one eye is squinted shut to do so.) Bad health sucks.

[@erik1836]

My late wife had MS and was terminal. I took care of her for over 22 years and by the time she mercifully passed away in a nursing home she was quadriplegic, mentally incompetent and incontinent. It is a HORRIBLE disease. This man is in bad shape already his wife is being heatless.

The mom as a point, it's not cheap but it's physically impossible right now for him to work. I personally went back and forth from SSI because they pay you absolutely garbage for not being able to work at all. Some of us just deal with it. Some of us work because we have to and we work through the pain. Shes lucky she's well enough to work

[@joytoyouandme4593]

Why isn’t she collecting SSI for the child through his claim? The minor child of a disabled person is eligible for these benefits.

[@joytoyouandme4593]

Joyce Wobbrock - Disability benefits to a minor child have nothing to do with income of the custodial parent. It is a benefit of the disability (soc sec) system, based on the number of points the disabled parent has in the system. It is completely separate from child support benefits.

[@patticake7297]

In New York, if a parent receives SSI/ disability, the child/children receives a check from Social Security. The amount depends on parent work history.

[@techno-phobe3000]

A few of my family members have/had MS. It's incurable, it can only be managed. It constantly attacks every nerve in your body. The only guarantee is that it will eventually get worse. 😓 My heart goes out to those that suffer, especially those who go years not being believed. ❤️❤️❤️

[@runcamyt]

MS can be an extremely debilitating and mentally crushing disease. I certainly hope he gets better. I hope the mother can understand a little of what he's going through.

[@sabrinadowns6353]

My mom has had ms for nearly thirty years and she is fortunate to not have any severe symptoms and side effects from it but she told me that men tend to have the more severe symptoms which made me feel awful for this dad because he’s correct you can get worse within months of being diagnosed depending on the stage you’re in or what form. This mother is a horrible person talking down to him and telling the judge he’s faking and making excuses, just disgusting.

This sucks for him. You can hear in his voice that he's having trouble with this. I understand the mom is upset, but this is a COMPLETELY different circumstance. It's out of his control.

[@Gypsypriestess]

This makes me really really angry. I have a documented disability and my ex and I share 50-50 custody. He was very very abusive. He has residential custody I have an alternate custody we live in two different states. He try to go after me for child support as a way to control me. After he asked the courts to voluntarily waive child support. When we went to court and I explain to them that I lost my job about a year ago and I’m on SSI, the judge basically told my ex husband that I am not required to pay child support because of my disability. I also have sole legal custody of my oldest son from my first marriage and his father does not pay child support at all. We’ve been struggling but we’re doing OK. This mother is absolutely disgusting. Prior to me getting on SSI I worked over 40 to 60 hours a week and had no child support for my son and still provided for my youngest son. This mother needs to get off her butt and she needs to start providing for her children because I feel like a lot of women are extremely lazy these days and things just because they have a kid they can just take everybody’s money. Poor guy

In the state of TX the child is entitled to benefits if one one the parents are on ss and/or disability. Not to mention the parent does not even have to be with you when you go to the ss office.
