Support for the CHILD!

Many women take their baby daddies to court for child support or if the woman is on public assistant the Department of Social Services takes the man to court for support. But what do you do when your situation changes from the first time you attended court? Who's responsibility is it to provide the updated information? There are women who never say anything because they want to continue to receive the increased money but then you have some women who are clearly getting their cake but want to eat it too (more money).

I know some who the father is doing the best he can do financially however she is not satisfied with what she gets. Go ahead, take him to court cause you will make it worst for yourself and you will end up getting less. Oops' I did not mean to make this personal. Let me get back on track. If the father is paying attention he can go back to the court and request a modification so that the expenses of the CHILD will again be reviewed. Now child support is for the support of the child, not the mother. Why do so many young mothers think that the child support is suppose to take care of them as well? NOT!!!

MEN, it is time for you to take a stand against these baby mommas who want to drag you in the mud. Now I do not want to get on here and bash women especially since I am a woman. DSS took my sons father to court and I ended up with $20.00 a week, yes I said $20.00 a week. Now this was back in 1986 however can you imagine the surprise on my face when the judge awarded that. I was expecting more, I felt I deserved more. But the reality is that I was not working and the state was giving me enough to take care of my son. But I can relate to the mother who is working and not receiving enough to care for her child(ren). I say, if your motives are right, go for it. Take him to court, but just make sure your motives are right or you might end up getting the short end of the stick.
