I'm sure I'll catch a tin of flack for this but, it's funny all these women who are "Independent" but want spousal support. Bish, get a job like the rest of us I'd be so ashamed to ask for support from my ex.
100% agree with this! There is no reason once a marriage is over one party should still be responsible for the other. Get a job and make your own way like the rest of us. You shouldn't be entitled to keep the money and same lifestyle and not the man.
I'm a WOMAN...and I AGREE 150%. Get a job....get some self respect. Do your part to raise your kids. Best life lesson a Mother can teach..Work hard and pay your way,
A woman can kill her baby but a man can’t abandon his baby? Grown women with grown children can get alimony for what? Get a job. Support yourself. I’m always hearing about women being independent and self sufficient yet this crap continues.
I can certainly appreciate the theory behind spousal support in certain instances. If I had a wife that stayed home for 20 years, raising our children, and then I left her, there has to be some mechanism to protect her from living in poverty. The thing I get confused about on this case is how she issued a bench warrant for a guy paying $4000 a month, and the arrearage was only 4600. Doesn’t that mean he was really only 30 days behind at the absolute most? Why in the world would that be something that you would issue a warrant over.
Michigan has some crazy family courts. At least in Texas to get spousal support there have to be certain factors that must be met. If they do get it there is a cap in amount and years. Thank god my lawyer killed it the Ex tried to get it.
It also gives relief to the American taxpayer, since unsupported children end up in the welfare system. Parents have an ethical and moral responsibility to support their children.
@@tammystewart7429and how does that help when parents don’t ever want the children? It’s really easy to just make babies and not ever take them if we were under your suggestions. Who pays for the children then?
@@dpofahl parents want their children. Women always want to pretend men don’t want their kids except women want the child support so they don’t want to have joint custody. If there is an instance where a parent don’t want anything to do with their kid then they can pay child support.
@@tammystewart7429 - Sure Tammy - I gave my ex joint custody, in less then a year he was bringing her back earlier and earlier because he needed to spend time with his girlfriend. He also never bought her new clothes, didn’t buy any gifts for her to take to birthday parties,no school supplies and didn’t provide any medical or dental insurance. He also left her in an apartment for over 3 hours with a 7 year old, who was watching 3 kids under the age of 6. He also took her repelling in the rain while she clung to his back down the side of the mountain. Just because someone makes a baby it doesn’t make them a good parent.
What the hell does this ex-wife need in spousal support of $4100? There is no need for that much in spousal support. These women need to get off their ass and go to work. Again, the interest that the state thinks they are entitled to, needs to stop. There should be no interested charged on any sort of support payments. Even if they are missed. This is a money-making scheme by the courts. How about offer them to get help through Michigan Works if you're wanting to get that money, there you go. Again, they keep you coming back to court so they can charge you the court fee's. so Mason Case - You need to get this paperwork from NV, and have them send you this information. Yeah, the state is going to put you in jail for not in pay the state. even though the other party does not live in Michigan. Get an attorney to fight against this type of BS. That vindictive woman is attempting to keep him in the state of Michigan, as she is all about that $$.
Can someone please explain to me why someone get spousal support, particularly if they have grown children? And why is it that usually men seem to owe spousal support/alimony to their ex wives and not the other way around?
I’m assuming that spousal support is for the spouse that set aside a career to be the main caregiver of the house. They would be entering the job field after over a decade of no work experience. I’m assuming spousal support is meant to be a way to help them get on their feet while doing it on their own. I’m not 100% sure, but I think it’s supposed to be temporary.
@zortizfcc it *should* be a temporary arrangement, as you said, to help bridge the gap until employment is secured- but, that's not how it works. instead it's unearned income given until the "children" are no longer claimed as dependents and/or the courts say so. and the courts will make sure its paid out, even if/when "child support" is only used by a parent to feed an ongoing drug addiction.... the system is totally f**ked, and so are you- especially if you're a white male of means. always get a pre-nup (and a lawyer to make sure it's airtight)!
