    I don't expect anyone to provide anything for my children, and I was once married and didn't claim anything at all, had a big house and was part of the 'wealthy' as you call it, at least I'm assuming by wealthy you mean those that are exempt from any form of state help.
    Sadly due to domestic violence and assaults on my children I found myself without a home or life that I once had- things change. Maybe one of my kids will become an MP or a Doctor or a Fire- person but I can guarantee they will be brought up with good family morals and a strong work ethic.

    Those two statements contradict each other.

    So you are advising people who are owed money by their exes, who are already struggling financially, to pay some iffy-sounding bunch to chase payment they are due by law? Are the CSA not supposed to do that for free?

    NACSA are far from iffy, they were consultees over the current legislation and do wonderful work.

    The CSA ( Now CMS) are shocking. An absolute disgrace as part of the DWP. That's why they're trying to now wring their hands by factoring everything out.

    I'm sorry but you cannot have 8 children and not ensure there is financial provision from BOTH parents. It's utterly irresponsible.

    OK, marksoton, it's just expecting people to pay for what the government should be doing that gave me pause.

    I completely agree that men (and women) should pay for their children's support but, for as long as there are those who duck their responsibilities, which will be forever, there needs to be some provision to force them to pay, ideally without penalising the responsible parent. In practical terms, if someone refuses to pay for their child's upkeep, how is the one left holding the baby supposed to make them without official help? We differ in that I do not see why they should have to pay for this help while there is a government department in existence whose job it is to do so. If the CSA are useless, they should either be dissolved or given the teeth to be effective... imho, of course.

    And how are you supposed to ensure that, anyone can split up??
    I can't force them to pay any more than you can, when I met these men, ex husband and ex bf I didn't expect to be either on my own or chasing them for money, I have applied to the CSA, beyond that there is not a lot I can do and I'm certainly not going to be asking them in person to give them the satisfaction of seeing me have to ask over and over again.
