Child Support....my idea

Why on earth should her current partner have to support a child that's not his??????

Hey guys, I've got 4 kids and their father doesn't pay anything towards their keep. Can someone please volunteer to pay for them? Thanks.

Telling his side does not mean slagging the mother - he will however make sure the child knows she has been thought about during the last 14 years

Then he also needs to prepared to answer the question 'why didn't you go to court to gain access' and that 'because I couldn't afford it' to be considered not good enough.

He had a court order, the PWC wasn't there when he went to collect the child, back to court, told she must keep to agreed contact etc.


He did try - PWC moved to a different jurisdiction, so couldn't enforce the court order.


We will deal with the questions when they come if they do, and we realize its not about any arguments between OH and mother, its about what is best for the child.


We don't even know if she ever will come looking for him, but are prepared for if she does.

Where is the different jurisdiction?

This thread is not a discussion about my OH's relationship with his daughter.


He knows he tried his best, and in time hopefully so will his daughter.


I only brought it up to say that I wouldn't want to be forced to contribute to a child I have no relationship with,
