Money, well, get back, I'm alright Jack…

Yes, you need money to live, but kids first!!! They wouldn't be taking your tax money if you weren't behind! The kids deserve better!

What if the kid is mini-Hitler? Would the kid still deserve better then? There isn't enough information in the FML to conclusively determine that the child isn't basically a real-life Chucky, so we shouldn't judge!

(For the avoidance of doubt, that was sarcasm)

maybe pay for the kids you helped make 🤷‍♀️

You realise some of us are ordered to pay child support even though we have the kid more and pay for everything anyways on top of it ......get over yourself until you learn the whole story

Shouldn’t have been a deadbeat. This is a perfect YDI post.

Nothing here indicates that he is a dead beat at all all it indicates is that the woman requested child support and he is required to pay more than he can pay..... Remember some of us are really good dads being taken advantage of by the mother of our child even though we pay for everything and spend more time with the child and the mother they still are still manipulative enough to do this to us

Oh please. They don’t just take child support and taxes right off the bat when you get behind. It takes months to get to that point, since everything has to go through the court system. If the stimulus check got taken, that equals deadbeat, because that also means that the OP also hasn’t gotten a refund check from the IRS either.

I know first hand how long it takes to get garnishments started under the system, whether it’s for child support, unpaid medical bills, etc. It is not a show up, and get the garnishment.

Hey Joshua, if you're really a dad, maybe put the wellbeing of your offspring ahead of pissing and moaning about having to pay for them. Sack the fuck up, dude.

If you paid your support like you were suppose to they would have anything to take.

unless you lost your job during covid no one is going to feel sorry for you

Seriously? Pay for your kids!
