You gonna talk the talk? Then perhaps you should try walking the walk?
Whining? Hmmmm.........
Who cares? Its not up to him to decide how the money is spent. The court ordered him to pay and he pays.
That's what he gets when turning to the court to solve his personal problems.
Complaining? His kids appear to have forgotten who he is, or was. Was he just a convenient meal ticket to them and his ex and her new husband?[/b]
Who cares if his kids forgot him? He's complaining about money.
I read the article and to me the tone is more about what he considered abuse placed upon him by that said system.[/b]
All you needed to read was this:
There is no crime in this Country that penalizes an innocent person to pay six figures for something they would be judged as innocent. There is no crime that targets a percentage of future income to be paid under threat of arrest.
The title alone sums it up:
Free At Last, Free At Last:Release From Child Support Debtors Prison
The rest of the stuff is just thrown in to garner sympathy.
He tried to prove himself. He tried to do what he could for his children. The court appears to have ignored who he was and what he accomplished in life. To have ignored arrest records. To have ignored proof of misuse of funds.[/b]
Who said the courts ignored him? He did. I am sure the court and his ex have a different view.
Any one who losses a court case complains about how they were wronged. Every prisoner in prison claims he is innocent.
What he received from that system made him feel as if he were sent to a debtors prison, which by the way has been outlawed within the U.S.
Again his children no longer seem to know him. Or to care about him other then the money.[/b]
What he got from the system is what he put into it.
As for his children 'only caring about the money' not even he says that. He claims his ex keeps the kids from him and spends his money on her pedophile beau.
Maybe there's a reason his children don't want anything to do with him?
I don't think he would have reacted the same way if he had been ALLOWED to be a part of his childrens lives.
[/b]
Sure he would. The payments would remain the same and that's what he is whining about.
Let's run through it:
Over twelve years of semi-monthly payments, adding up into six figure contributions for my "children"
Seems to imply that since his kids dont care to see him he shouldn't have to pay. That's not how it works.
I used this as an opportunity to see how my ex was using my child support payments. I subpoenaed bank and credit card records, and meticulously tracked them to my payments to the penny.
My second futile attempt was to believe a court would be aghast to see that over 80% of my payments were diverted from supporting my children. Eighty percent. Spent on my ex and her child molesting beau.
He's worried about where the mony is going rather then protecting his children form a pedophile.
The end result was that it mattered not how she spent the money. But I would lose my law license, my driver's license and my freedom if I failed to pay.
More whines about money.
With my life savings depleted, and several years of forward savings already spent, I succumbed to my role as a person on parole never convicted of a crime.
More whining about being punished for having to support his own children.
Both interventions cost me between $3000 and $4000 each. And the result was the same - a directive from a "mediator", not a judge, to allow visitation.
More whining about the costs. If his kids were really threatened by a pedophile 3 - 4k aint a heck of a lot to keep them safe.
I have been barred from participating in my children's lives, yet I have been ordered to provide their support.
More whining. He seems to think child support is some sort of 'bond' that should guarrantee his kids seeing him. Any dead beat could just refuse to see thier kids to avoid paying if that were the case.
There is no crime in this Country that penalizes an innocent person to pay six figures for something they would be judged as innocent. There is no crime that targets a percentage of future income to be paid under threat of arrest.
Once again he claims he's treated as a criminal because the courts demand he take care of his children.
While my last support payment represents freedom from incarceration, my children were alienated from me and encouraged to call a sexual deviant their new father.
More of the same:
Support = bond...
A male whine hmmm..... what kind of man would LET .............. ???
You apparently have NOT expeirenced the legal system this country now has when it comes to child custody and divorce. Males have very few, if any, rights in many states. Story after story is being told regarding this matter and the media ignores those stories. Some do time in jail because they argued with the judge, and tried to claim they had rights, and then go back in jail upon release for failure to pay their support payments while they were in JAIL! The Child Support people were there the day of their release and had them arrested before they even got out of the jail.
He would be in jail doing HARD time for ignoring the courts orders! You ever find yourself in the same situation remember THAT![/b]
Yeah, it's better that he is safe and out of prison rather then protecting his children from a pedophile.
He's a heck of a guy aint he...
HOT NEWS FLASH!!!
Federal Law states that a veterans benefits my NOT be attached in any way shape or form by anyone!
The states, with the help of state judges, have gotten around/ignored that.
They do this even though the children automatically get compensation from the VA.
How? Simple the courts ignore it. It's not enforced. If it's not enforced it has NO affect.
You don't believe that? Impossible? Is that what your gonna say? Do the work look it up. What's actually occuring in the U.S. legal world is much different then you might think. Your rights? You only have the ones your willing to fight for. And even then you may find yourself imprisioned or dead trying to claim them. That's where we are and where we have always been one way or another. History shows it. History proves it. [/B]
I don't care anything about the rest of your rant. Nothing in that article says anything about his veteran's benefits.
If you are referring to your own life I don't care anything about that either. I would just repeat what I already said. When folks turn to the courts for a solution to their personal problems then they deserve what they get.
Its almost a sure thing that who ever comes off worse will be whining about how 'unjust' it is.
ASTAC,
I could care less about your life. Everyone's a victim, especially the angry males...
I refer you to what I said above.
