he's a deadbeat dad it sounds like, ask him first though..and if he has already agreed to it, than that's cool but if not yes courts cost money and yes you can get everything that he should have been paying since he walked away but it's up to you to decide..but if you two can agree on an amount and keep it out of courts that cool too but if you do get it in writing that way it protects both of you in case you ever do need to go to court..it protects you meaning that he signed something so if the need ever arises and he's not paying you can go to court...and it protects him because you already agreed on the amount so he isn't forced to pay a huge amount. fyi child support is normally about 25% of a persons income

My child support is %30 of the gross, less what I pay for medical insurance for 2 kids. In 1 yr, my oldest is 18, then it goes down to %20. Nice forumla, no arguements. Its all deducted from the paycheck. Get some support for your child.

keep your head up. The chunk of money that he gave you would be considered a gift in the courts eyes. So in reality he still would have to pay chld support and maybe back child support from the day that the DNA established paternity. So like I said keep your head. He will have to pay some in some form or another.

So my sons father and I were dating, became great friends. I wound up prego and he left for a year to go to school in china. I had the baby, and three months later he returned and came and saw me and Austin. He brought me presents back from China and things seemed ok. He wanted a DNA test, so we got one done, and when it came back that he was the father (already knew it was) he decided that he didn't want anything to do with us. Gave me a chunck of money and said Adios. Fast forward to today. I'm kinda broke, and I sent him an email today asking for some money to help me until I start getting paychecks from work. I've never asked him for anything at all, mind you. So here I am patiently waiting a reply, but I think I already know what he is going to say. I guess what I am asking here, is if he refuses to give me a little money (all im asking for is 200 bucks) should I take the next step and try to force him to? I have never wanted the courts involved in my life, cause I don't have the patience for this kind of stuff, but it would help if he gave me a little something every now and then.  Blargh.  Go after him, make him pay the child support your child deserves, he'll have to pay back all of the support he missed as well. Do it for your child. |

I take a VERY hard line on this. Shocker, huh? That money you've never asked for, dear Kitten? It's Austin's. You've no right to pass it up. Get a court order and stick it in the bank if you don't want it. Then put it towards his school... or whatever. Austin has a right to regular child support. Keep in mind that you can request he pay your attorney's fees as well, since he threw money at you and left. Good luck to you and your darling boy.  <<Disclaimer>> I do not pay child support or receive it. I do 50/50 shared parenting. i agree with lilith on this. my daughter is now 20, ive never rec'd a dime!!! it is hard to raise a child on your own and i agree that money will benefit your son and you should go get it. |
