Fran,

It took over 10 yrs.slaphead

I'm not asking for arrears though.


I hear you, it's not easy, took over 10 years but you have come to the decision not to seek arrearage, personal choice, I respect it.

Good luck to you and all others doing what's right on behalf of your/the kids - flowers

I finished (yayyy, never truly finish) but she's an adult, a great 23 year old, hardworking, conscientious and responsible young woman.



The road that he has traveled hasn't allowed him to have the money to pay back the past.

You're right, we're never finished.laugh My parents have helped me as an adult.

I love being a parent, Fran.flowerforyou

there is a difference between wants and needs

i am going to discontinue

further discussion

we all know as it is the system does not work

no one wants to try to offer alternatives

so be well

i agree we will not agree as you have no idea on fixing

all that you want to do is say how bad my idea is

but without discussion which this was not

there will never be an answer found

maybe children of divorce should just continue to get the raw end of the deal

I can not resist this question...
Scenario is as follows...The child is grown and out of the home...no support ever paid by non custodial parent.. Do you think the monies should be collected now..and why?
If you say yes to this, then are you also saying yes to debtors prison(jailing for money)and would you agree to putting someone in jail for owing Sears Credit or a past due child support order....

It happens that way now. A friend of mine's child has children now. My friend received state aid in CA and moved back to MO. My friend is still collecting child support that is owed her - after CA gets their share. She lived in CA when the child was young.

I believe that my state (MO) goes back 5 years.

It's a shame that some men lack the integrity and character to even have this situation occur.

Ok,i pay 800.00 a month to my ex for my 2 daughters,i ahve no problem paying for my kids,when i start having a problem is when it is time to stop being a man,and not caring about my kids.(WILL NEVER HAPPEN)I have filed for support modification,so that is fixing to get reduced.Anyway,visitation depends on whether or not you file for full custody,if you do get it,then they will tell him(more than likely)it is up to whoever has custodial rights.I wish you all the luck in the world on this. By the way,not all men are scum and refuse to take care of their obligations in life.I took care of another mans kids for 13 years, he was scum. 100.00 a month for 2 kids. what a weasel.Some men do go above and beyond their duties as fathers as well as some women who have lost their children do.explode

i agree we will not agree as you have no idea on fixing

childish retort as I believe you have idea an fixing but I dont agree with itflowerforyou

all that you want to do is say how bad my idea is

but without discussion which this was not

there will never be an answer found

never said your idea was bad, I did say I didnt agree with it and I am entitled

maybe children of divorce should just continue to get the raw end of the deal

"""""dontcha wanna see it from a happy medium like the middle"""""""

when you are ready to come to the middle i would be more than willing to continue discussion

----------------------------------

""""""""childish retort as I believe you have idea an fixing but I dont agree with it""""""""

i did not expect agreement --- i did expect adjustment ideas

the childish part is standing there holding your breath till you get you own way

-----------------------------------

"""""""""b]never said your idea was bad, I did say I didnt agree with it and I am entitled"""""""""""


yes you have the right to disagree

------------------------------------

""""""""""sound very defeated here""""""""""""

as defeated as i would be beating down a break wall with my head

------------------------------------

"""""""""""""""""""never said your idea was bad, I did say I didnt agree with it """""""""""""""""""

so if it is not a bad idea why do you disagree

--------------------------------------

"""""""""I think it is you that don't want to understand my version or my opinion, but that too is ok"""""""""""

you have never explained it

are you saying the syaatem as it is - is ok

i seen no input on any changes

--------------------------------------

""""""""""For I agree with you, seems as if we should just issue the non custodial parent a free pass just by providing a check and that's supposed to make it all ok. But we know better as we lived it.""""""""""

i never offered a free ride for a check as for my idea would remove that

and

would penalize those that try to attempt that

--------------------------------------------
******general statement**********

i will stop here

again

you have a right to disagree

i do not have a problem with disagreement

but complaining with out trying to come up with a fix

seems childish to me

---------------------------------------------

be well

and may much good come to you and yours

I responded in bold to make it easier to view and distinguish my response from your quotes, your reasoning??? :laughing:

mine are grown and does not affect me neither

"""""""""I responded in bold to make it easier to view and distinguish my response from your quotes, your reasoning???""""""""""

i used quotes for your remarks

and dashed line to separate points

seemed pretty obvious to me

drinker drinker drinker


edit

dont know why it came out in bold was not my intention
never use bold


redit

must be from quoting your remarks (only logical idea i can see) as i did not do the bracket thing
