A recent census has proclaimed that nearly 2 million deadbeat dads who owed child support failed to make any payments.
Of the 6.3 million U.S. mothers owed child support, roughly 30 percent or 1.99 million women did not receive any payments.
What these surveys consistently fail to tell you is that in the majority of these cases, the mean old dads are also required to pay all attorney fees, perhaps file for bankruptcy and pay for continuing litigation to try to gain custody of the children. He no longer has a house or furniture, while he pays 100 percent of his wages on attorneys who can garnish his wages in a moment’s notice.
In addition, if he works for the federal government, he would quickly learn that the government has not spent one single nickel to investigate one single case of violations of visitation rights.
Not for one second do I believe that 30 percent of all the dads in America are uncaring about their children. It’s the legal system that needs to change before any other problems are solved!
No, I have never had children!
