Excellent dam* point# I would have loved to hear what the father had to say. My guess, he was smart enough to know to wait till she completely put her foot in her mouth.
Lots of things should not be. But never less they take place and they happen. children should not be molested and tortured by their own parents, but they are.
I went through all this crap with my ex, she lied in court, filed false income statements, she took me to court 13 times, and lost every time, and they kept lowering my support. The judge had enough and told her she was free to try and take me to court again, but she would have to pay a $500.00 contempt of court fee if she did.
For me my ex husband kept taking me to court to get it lowered and I paid health insurance and only made 6.25 an hour and he was making over 17 bucks and hour. We had 2 kids and I paid for all their sports also. But I never took him back to court and also never got it lowered either.
Genuine sympathy for the father. We all make stupid mistakes in life, but putting his seed in that entitled couch sloth I’d imagine ranks among his biggest whoopsies.
“I’m able to work, but i don’t want too!” Well, babe, you and 98% of us don’t want to work either, but we have too. This boggles my mind. She had no shame admitting to any of this.
@@allisonjames2923 It is fake. Support court is its own RU-vid channel for sure, with videos posting different scripted scenarios regarding child support that could indeed happen in actual court, or has had happened in court. I recommend giving a channel a once over. I discovered it on tiktok back in early January of last year I believe.
It's not even a matter of whether she wants to. She is half-responsible for providing for her child. It's not just on the dad. So #$%@ whether she wants to work, she should be mandated to provide half the expenses. If she wants to say she's providing a house and food (which her mother actually is, not her), then the judge should deduct those costs from what the father should be providing. His half of nothing is still nothing. She should be responsible for half the child's other expenses. School, medical, clothing, etc.
The moment she said she "can work but doesn't WANT to", the judge should have appointed a guardian for the kid who controls 100% of how exactly the child support is being spent. And also order an investigation on HOW past support was used. Maybe even have the kid evaluated to see how "mom" is blaming the cheap, deadbeat dad for ruined birthdays, Christmas and no college fund... That's a disgusting leech if there ever was one. (My ex would love to be friends with that embarrassment to mothers)
My ex BIL refused to work so my sis had to work three jobs. He took great pride in screwing her. Oh, wait, I forgot: he dumped her for a mid-20s girl with four kids, and stole some of his kid' stuff.
Probably out drinking and hooking up while her Facebook is loaded with bible quotes and what a great mommy she is tagged with tons of pics of her and her kid.
There are so many women who are like that! I worked 2 jobs as a single mother getting no child support just to live in a shabby apartment. My kids are now 20 & 23. I had people tell me that I could live rent free in government housing and get income subsidized support in order to have $0 rent pmt. I refused to do that bc I didn’t want my children to think that is the way things are supposed to be. We are modeling behavior for our children and it is absolutely unfair for parents not to prepare their children for the real world.
Agreed, because some of the child support would naturally be going toward rent and utilities to provide a safe, comfortable home for the child. And since she doesn’t pay for those things, she doesn’t need that money.
Sadly the judge had to calculate 18% of dad's income for one child. He's lucky she's too stupid not to ask for spousal support while she tries to go to school or something bullshitish like that.
I totally agree but in the majority of the states child support is based on how much the parents make, not on the child’s needs. That means that one parent will pay the other - the non custodial parent (which is usually the father) 25% of it’s monthly income.
@Donatella Loncar Have u heard of sarcasm? It was obviously several snippets cut & pasted together to make the vid. A pretty good one, actually. Anyway, I apologize; I though the "WT-ACTUAL-F along with the emoji would've sufficed. Guess I should've added the "Lol" so I didn't sound so "f-ing gullible." Thanks for the lesson; I'll be sure to apply it next time I post a comment on RU-vid! Have a blessed day!✌🏻
Watching her makes me so sad for the child. No doubt at all she talks to the child about how cheap the father is, how she never should have married him, how she never should have had a child. Breaks the heart.
I feel like I’d feel incredibly guilty if I didn’t get a job once my kid started going to school and solely relied on my husband unless there was a *damn* good reason for me to do so
The fact the "mother" calls her son "The kid" gives me the impression that she sees him as a way to get more money out of her ex. Honestly if I were a judge I'd give custody to the father - PERIOD. That lady is looking for a meal ticket - "Why should I work when I can have my mother and my ex pay for everything?? Duh!" Poor son. I'll bet Mom's partying with the girls every weekend, too - because she "deserves it."
Absolutely disgusting that it was even increased when she just admitted she doesn’t pay for food, rent or medical. No wonder this guy ran! I feel sorry for him
Listen again, the judge DIDN'T increase the child support, she asked about the healthcare coverage the dad paid for his son, and the judge COUNTED that towards child support, she told the money grubbing woman until she had proof of his earnings, she didn't have much to go on and she reiterated that the woman is perfectly able to work.
@@reneeperdon3403 What did she get wrong? In the beginning she says she only gets $600 a month in child support, and at the end the judge says they will discuss the modifications of the child support. She then says it will be brought to $1093. so it sounds like the judge increased it according to the $90,000 a year that the father said he makes ( on the high end of a good year ). She deducted the health ins, so it probably would have been $1203 but deducting the $110 the ins costs brings it down to the $1093. So it did increase from $600 a month to $1,093 a month.
@@sundaymourning5329 She CLAIMED to get $600 a month, the judge LOWERED the actual amount DOWN to that one thousand something figure (which is when her head popped up and she gasped "Lower???") and basically told her to get off her lazy ass and work if she wanted more money. At least that's how I heard it.
If there were more judges like this my mother wouldnt have been able to keep custody of me and proceed to put my father on child support that was far too high and never needed or ever used on us the children ive had little to nothing she didnt even wanna keep us under her roof or feed us and she completely ruined our lives and none of us are going to have a future to look forward too i detest parents that have children so they can ruin their lives before that life has even started
The entitlement I see all across RU-vid is unbelievable. The psychology of what is happening in the minds of so many ppl is just flooring, and I don't know what is making this happen. Love this judge. Thank goodness she still has her senses. Feel for this guy. He should only be responsible for taking care of the child. Not the mother.
I have to imagine it's because of the cameras everyone carries around now. I try to imagine what obnoxious deeds went unrecorded in days gone by. But this particular form of foolish outburst is certainly trending.
I did this for 5 years. I was a Toyota technician. Master certification and had all my ASE certification’s. She didn’t work. I took care of everything. Now i am a machinist in a steel factory trying to support my new family. She goes on two vacations a year and married a guy who makes a good salary. I don’t even know what a salary is. My daughter has a charger (car). My twin boys have s-10s. I pay a lot. Now, I have a family of my own as well. Two sons. Both are autistic. It’s hard and as a father it’s painful to watch them struggling with things. Their mom and I are still together after 8 years and I love them so much. But she doesn’t understand how hard it is to have a family without money.
That judge kept is classy she wanted to punch that lady in the mouth and didn’t want to give this lady any money until she got a job. She felt bad for the husband
I find this revolting how this woman is not only living off of her husband's child support but not taking any accountability for her actions. My ex-girlfriend was almost the same way being like this woman. She was very dependent and her expecting me to basically financially support her because in her words "That's what boyfriends and husbands supposed to do". That's where she got it twisted because she wanted me to be her gateway ticket out of her toxic family let alone her mother that she obviously covers up and thinks that I am the dramatic one and needed to chill out. No she was the one that was so miserable and brought all of her baggage onto my doorstep and I admit I was a simp aka sucker for it until I woke up and grew a huge backbone letting her know that I will not put up with it ever again.
I'm sure he would be better if he had custody of the child at this point... Daycare would be cheaper and for some reason I think This man would definitely be the better parent!! He can at least instill better values for sure!
@@TriniLush7 you can't just make broad sweeping statements like that as if they're true. I know white a few men who have or want full custody of their kids.
Having a “hell nah” attitude towards being a working woman… in front of a working woman (the judge), was probably not the best strategy for getting a child support increase. America needs more of this judge, and a whole lot less of the other person.
No way. What America really needs are for these f****** judges to get the f*** out of people's relationships. And America needs a (better?) Mental Health Care system so that these broken ass people can get some "think right" so there will be less of that, entitled attitude. Or whatever else emotional or mental issues she (they) have. What America needs is a real president, not a dementia patient running it and what America needs is LESS f****** judgmental people in robes that weren't there for the baby making, or anyting else that's gone on with that kid since. decide where the baby's going to live just to decide how much child support you're going to pay based on where the judge tells you the babies don't live f*** a bunch of child support custody court hearings anyway it should be 50/50! 2 people to make that kid and 2 people to raise them. And this is a problem with what's wrong with America today, is that people think that one or the other parent should have custody of the children they're not a f****** possession they are a child they are a person that was made from two parents and one DOES NOT DESERVE TO have the kid more than the other parent. Parents who f****** keep their kids away from the other parent should rot in hell. I'm sure they do.
@@geebrewer8186 Right? I was wondering if I heard the judge right...The lady said she got a "measily 600 dollars a month", then the judge said it would "slightly bring your child support down", then gives him a sum of just over a thousand a month! WHAT?!
She should have to pay that way she will be forced to get a job to pay for child support. If she refuses she gets arrested. That's what I would have done if I was the judge.
The judge should have lowered his payment since a place to stay was covered and he paid insurance. She is so pathetic to say in open court she refuses to get a job wow.
But when you're about to climax and your vibrator's batteries go out! I have honestly no idea where she was going with that analogy... Good on the judge to cut her off. What a clown!
And it's people like this that make it hard for mothers and fathers who do need more hard to get the increase for the child(ren). It's just so disgusting!
If her rent & food is free & she lives with her homeowner mother..., ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS A MONTH IS ENOUGH FOR THEIR CHILD. If anything, she should have money saved up from the child support...since she don't have to pay for anything else except for shit for their child.
My son's father was ordered to pay $180.00 a month, he was also ordered to provide medical insurance. And he was bringing home twice as much money as I did. The State of California really didn't follow through in going after him. And told me to find him.
Amen to the Daddy and Judge, I was a single mother of three, with terminal cancer, and no government assistance and no child support, I worked my ass off. Raised my babies, survived cancer, and at almost 61 yrs of age, I am still working my ass of, still paying my own Bill's. That woman needs a good dose of work....
I agree ! And well done to you for managing to deal with life , despite the challenges you’ve had ! I wonder if you realize what a fantastic work ethic you have taught your children without even realizing it ?
All episodes include actors. Vonda Bailey is not a real Judge. She is a licensed attorney in the state of Texas who primarily handles cases involving child support and spousal support.
I knew a divorced father who's kids lived with the mother. She spent every dime of child support on herself and any boy toy she had. Then, as it became time to go back to court. She would shower her kids in gifts and trips.
Am I the only mom that actually meets with my son's father and go over monthly expenses? I provide receipts and we discuss the upcoming months expenses. It's 1 45 minute lunch a month and it ensures a fair parenting system. I think it's crazy how far these court custody battles become and majority of the time it's not even about the kids but getting back at each other. Ridiculous.
So. Very. True!!! When the child’s needs and interests are put first, it’s not hard at all to be civil and ensure the child is taken care of! It’s almost always the hate the parent’s have for each other that keeps them in court and fighting back and forth. No kid deserves to go through that. I just wish ppl would see the bigger picture and not act like they’re the main character of everything.
Excellent 👏👏👏 You are giving your children tools by both parents good example. Oh what respect and love for your child can be if people act like adults.
You and your son's father are clearly responsible adults who want the best for the child whilst being respectful of each other too. Your child is very lucky and you are both great parents.
No, you're not. My ex and I make sure all of our sons needs are met, we do 50-50 custody, so no child support but since he's a disabled vet and our son gets ssi because he was born with cp I gave him all of our sons disability so he could support himself. I also keep him on my phone plan and car insurance because the extra expense, especially without my discounts or family plan, would be almost $300 a month which is double what I pay and would leave him with no money to feed himself. He's a good dad and loves our son, we may have made a lot of mistakes in our marriage but our son won't be suffering because we couldn't work things out.
You will not go after a fucking child support if you have a decent job that can support your child,,,, people who are after a support but can stand on their own feet are called lazy, plain and simple! GET A JOB AND PROVE TO YOUR EX THAT HE;S MONEY IS WORTHLESSS, PERIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!
The fact that she straight up tells the judge that she is living off this man is amazing to me, that has to be some sort of red flag for a court to see through
This is why it is so important (men/women) to really know who you sleep with, before you produce a child! There's an old Southern saying" what always looks good ain't good for you!" Sorry that father had to learn that brought lesson.
She still increased it by almost 2x, if that doesn't show you how biased people (this is not a real court) are toward women in these types of things, I don't know what will.
Imagine. Having to completely rely on someone else for money. And not able to support yourself, let alone your child. Her parents must be real proud of her.
I'm not surprised by her laziness, I'm just surprised by the sheer level of entitlement that she felt no shame while saying the things she said in front of all these people. When the judge started grilling her you'd think she would feel some embarrassment or guilt that she's been doing absolutely nothing on her end despite being perfectly capable. The ex husband handled it really well though. He just seems completely over it but also glad that everyone else is seeing firsthand what he had to deal with.
I was appalled by that mother. What was she thinking? She really needs a reality check. Hat’s off to the ex-husband by keeping his cool and answering only when spoken to.
It's hilarious that she thought insulting his manhood would win her points with the judge. Such a petty thing to do, and it makes her look like a tramp. 😂🤣
The fact that she was answering the judge’s questions with a straight face just baffled me. Also, this judge is awesome, it made this even more amazing that she is a woman and she didn’t just blindly stand up for her… bravos!!
This sorry excuse of a mother has her "anchor baby" to ensure her financial security until child reaches 18! Don't have a clue where she was going with the batteries dying on her vibratory, but...
What got me was the mother saying" oh I live rent free I don't pay rent for food nothing " n she said it so proudly like tf do u spend all that 600 a month on
She absolutely made me embarrassed that I'm female and her mother deserves her if she lets her live in her house rent free and eat free and she's a full grown adult they deserve each other
@@georgegouvas27 I've worked with mentally disabled people. She's not. Unless you're being sarcastic she's not disabled there's nothing cognitively wrong with her other than her just having a lazy attitude.
I bet her mama wants her out of the house for being a freeloader, that broad is waiting for her mama to kick over so she can inherit her estate. No doubt she'll take her ex-husband back to court again when she sees she also inherited her mother's debt.
My Mum was a stay at home Mum most of my childhood, she occasionally took temp jobs here and there just for extra money when I was really young 0-10. Then when I was 11 she got a job in child care (especially with special needs and traumatised children), I don’t know how considering she hasn’t no experience in it other than being a mother herself. She had to take this job because she brought my Dad to to court for more child support (he was paying double what they had originally agreed on) and the courts instead significantly reduced it and increased his mandatory visitation (our Mum tried to fight for full custody a few years before this and she got 70%) to 50%. I wouldn’t call my Mum lazy like this woman but she did love living off my father’s money, and despite her asking for full custody and getting 70%, she avoided me and my sister as much as possible. Forced us into every after school club possible (I hated every single one but she forced me to go and beat my ass if just walked out - which I did a lot), refused to come get us if we were sick at school and leave us with our older brother when we weren’t in school or after school clubs. And on weekends she would go out with her friends and our brother and his gf would babysit us. She did always ask my Dad first and he’d always refused because he wanted to work, he didn’t have to even with paying a lot of child support, but he’s been a workaholic my whole life. My Mum fought for full custody and basically got it but hated it and never saw us (I don’t think she ever wanted full custody, she just wanted to get back at my Dad) and was overjoyed when they reduced her custody equally between them but my Dad hated it. On his days, he was always at work. I never felt wanted by parents the majority of my life.
This woman is soooo rude and totally entitled, she really believes she doesnt have to do anything, other than sit at home and live of the poor X and her probably elderly mother, who no doubt takes care of the kid as well. She doesnt even look embarrased, she really thinks what she is doing is ok. She thinks the money is for her, not her child. She looked shocked when the judge said the money was for the child. Then the sex refference at the end was mind blowing. I wish she had said that at the beginning, the Judge might have just thrown her case out totally
I'm feeling like Dad needs full custody of their child. Her priorities are definitely out of whack. I can't imagine shes a good role model for their pre-teen son. Dad looks so exhausted by her shenanigans. I feel like he wants to point at his ex and say, "See what I have to deal with your honor. This is why we're divorced" Lucky for him, he doesn't have to point out her hideous behavior She is proud of her nasty personality and clearly has no shame ad she blatantly shows off her toxic traits. I've got nothing but respect for that man's self control. I can't imagine having to deal with her for the rest of my life. Plus, he knows she doesn't have their child's needs as any priority in her like let alone her highest priority. It's so gross. Let's not for her poor mom. I picture her mama working two or three jobs well into her 80's to support her narcissistic daughter and the lifestyle she thinks she's entitled to. I feel bad for her son, her mom and her ex. I do not feel sorry for her. She can still be home when her kid is home if it's that important for her to have a stay at home parent. I get that. I completely support families that work hard so one of them can be home just as much as I support families where they both choose or need to work outside of the home but now that he is eleven years old, she can easily find work during his school hours and while he is with his dad. Shes way luckier than most with all of her support from her ex and her mom. Her mom could help watch their son while she works too. She just doesn't want to participate in reality. It's a shame. She could be and do so much better. Dad, get custody and get the court to make her get a job so she can pay you for support. You have to be a better option for your son. I'm sure you want a better arrangement too. I wish you and your child the best of everything.
She admitted she’s too lazy to work, she brought him to court to get more money but now is getting less, and then tried winning her case by comparing him to a dying vibrator, he just might have a case for sole custody!
Her lack of self-awareness is amazing, I know people like this. They go through life latched on someone else’s paycheck, being no use to anyone but More, more. All they want Is more. Eventually the gravy train stops and it doesn’t end well.
If I was the judge, the ruling would be the following: $0 for her Ordered to get a job Court appointed guardian to make sure the $490 a month goes toward the well-being of the child Pay him the $110 for the insurance that he gets through this job (and is deducted from this paycheck) I definitely see why he divorced her.
Wow when I got divorce in 1997. I was a stay home mom not what I wanted. He was a control freak. But the judge told me the first day in court, he told me you will have a job before you come back. Went out and got a job right away. I was a grill cook then went into a factory job. Really she is lazy. I worked 17 years in the factory and with a disability.
For most single mothers child support is just a second source of income it goes to their nails hair social media accounts etc and the child gets one outfit off the clearance rat from Walmart that barely fits...
Child support is supposed to go towards the child.. this woman is clearly using it to fund her lifestyle. She's not using it towards anything for the kid, she's using it towards monthly expenses in general. CHILD SUPPORT IS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE CHILD...
The mother of my second daughter was getting just over 1000 per month from me at one time. I lost that job and had to get another but my pay was much lower so I went to court to get my payments adjusted. While in court I proved I couldn't afford the monthly payments. My ex admitted to making over $75000 per year while I was making less that $40000. I was paying for the insurance through the company I was with plus all the school clothes and books. I also paid for all extra curricular activities such as brownies, girl guides, ballet and summer camp. When the judge heard how much I made compared to her income he dropped my monthly payment to $165 as long as I kept up paying for the extra curriculars. My ex went off the rails right there in court and ended up in jail for a weekend for contempt of court. A few years later, when there was only about 2 years left for my support payments I lost the job I had and had to go on disability and put off work permanently. The ex tried taking me back to court to get more money but when the judge saw my income he said I no longer had to pay anything and until my daughter turned 18 her mother had to fork out the money for all the extras and was not allowed to stop my daughter from being in any of the groups she was currently in. It may not be a huge win but I will take it.
@@lizxu322 I actually saw the judge after court and thanked him. he told me he hates money grabbing women who think they have all rights just because of what is between their legs
Sounds like a decent judge - or judges! - and that you were really looking after that kid, paying for all those extra-curriculars and the school stuff and everything, on top of those monthly payments! I don't like to assume, so please forgive for asking, but - were you not also paying child support towards your 1st daughter? It's just that you didn't mention it, as something I imagine would/could have very much complicated matters, both financially and emotionally - or perhaps she had she reached the age of majority by then?
@@Tricia_K I did pay support for my older daughter. she is 9 years older than my second daughter so I was already done with support payments for her when this started. but I paid support for her until she was 21 because she was going to university at that time.
@@alira9990 Thanks for the added detail! I think the biggest win for me, would've been being able to picture my ex behind bars for that weekend, every time they pissed me off - but hey, maybe I'm just petty like that!😄
I’m stunned that she is proud of this. She wants to live like this. Living off her Mom and child support. Won’t get a job and I wonder does she even give attention to that poor kid? I think the Father needs custody because she’s sick
The fact that she is only gonna get child support until he’s 18.AND she lives with her mom , like when she dies she and there is no more child support, she’s broke. And I would love to see her in that state
I've always thought child support should be paid into a restricted bank account that can only child-appropriate items: diapers, formula, toys, books, clothes, then when they get older it adjusts in age range. Failing that, you should be able to pay into a locked account, with the permission of the court, until the child is 18. You don't pay the mother a cent, and then the child gets the money later.
That wouldn't work out, because child support also pays for the living space and utilities used by the child. Also, children's needs and wants differ drastically enough that you can't necessarily go by age. Some gifted kids need toys above the range of their age (such as science experiments or specialized hobbies), while delayed children may require educational and fun items below their age level.
I’ll start by saying that misuse of child support is absolutely disgusting, but a regulated spending system wouldn’t fix what’s broken about the whole child support mess. If one parent doesn’t pay it for months, years, however long, then it’s not like those arrears could be applied retroactively to toys, diapers, etc. The system is pretty broken on both sides. Also, I have no dog in this fight. I don’t have any children. But I did work for the state in the dept of social services, and I did get a pretty up-close look at how $hitty the situation can be for both the custodial parent and noncustodial parent. I think the highest dollar amount of arrears I saw was like $60,000 over something like 11 years, but my position only saw those payments tangentially; we were separate from children’s division.
Never thought of that. What a great idea! There will always be scammers but that will have some teeth to it and restrict the funds to where they should be.....to the child.
That $600/month (and now $1000+/month) is supposed to support the child, thus "child support". And the dad pays the child's health insurance. I bet she does not even give the child an allowance. This woman is a real piece of work, the definition of a true Karen.
"You're living off his child support" "Yes" So that's fraud then isn't it. Openly admitting that money meant for the child is not being spent on the child.
2:30 The look on everyone's faces when she says she does nothing all day and doesn't want to work is priceless. 😂 Yet she expects to live of her son's child support and still wants more. Poor kid. Mommy grows large while son goes without.
Mommy doesn't have the mental stamina to realize that in 7 years her meal ticket will be officially an adult. Daddy stops paying forever. Who will finance her sloth then? Probably good old Mom who spawned her.
what sucks is ive seen stories like this but due to child support being cut, the woman goes "you aint getting no fucking popsicle. go cry to your daddy why you cant have one. daddy being cheap as shit."
I’ve worked in family court, and I’ve seen this happen a bunch of times. Lol! Dad pays decent child support, mom gets greedy, and child support goes down instead of up. 🤣
@@barbara7611 oh, yeah. Judges do this day in and day out. All court employees actually. A court employee is taught to ONLY know or speak of their type of court or jurisdiction. Sounds counterproductive, but the reason it’s done it’s so that they never give the wrong info. Sometimes when we try to be more helpful on things we might not fully understand, we can cause great harm to a litigant. So, if a regular person as myself, can see it (I’m a court interpreter) even more so judges who almost have developed the instinct in recognizing ‘deadbeats’. They’ll never say it’s so, but I know that they do. It’s not a particular look, race, or income bracket. The ‘deadbeat’ just has a certain body language, tone or attitude. I’ve seen the wealthiest of the wealthiest, hiding assets just to shortchange their own kids. They’ll say things like: “I have other children that I have to support, so, I can’t afford to support these” and other crap like that. The other children and the support they get, are taken into account, but, you can’t just quit a set of kids to support the new kids. Lol We can’t prejudice ourselves of course, because 1. One NEVER knows a person’s circumstances or back story, but 2. like I said, there is not one race, income bracket or social status of any parent. except when they feel that entitlement to NOT pay. It’s usually revealed within the first 5 mins of a hearing. So, we don’t even have the time to prejudice ourselves or ever have discussions on. They simply incriminate themselves quite early in the hearing. 🤦🏽♀️
@@lucycarola that's interesting. I wasn't there for more support, he wanted custody but he never went through with it and the Judge game my daughter more. She was well taken care of which is all I wanted. I encouraged him to spend more time with her because she loved him too. She is 36 now and has a great relationship with her father too.
@@barbara7611 wow! That’s cause you’re a good mom. Not all moms do that. We get that a lot. It’s usually judges’ reaction to the moms who do not alienate their kids from their dads. We have a lot of instances of moms who think that they shouldn’t share their kids’ time w dad cause they’re not paying. One thing is not contingent on the other. That’s just standard case law. As a landlord doesn’t have to repair for a tenant to pay rent (w a few exceptions) neither can one parent deny visitation or time, to the other due to lack of financial support. On that same token, a parent can’t deny child support if they can’t see their kids. So, when a mom is saying the opposite (not about the money but about the time) judges do tend to respond. Mainly because they know that a dad who isn’t spending time is sometimes too upset to also be spending money. Also, they have a hard time adjusting to life on their own. I ran the finances in the household, so it took my ex a while before he learned how to manage that himself. What I’ve seen (even w my dad & even my ex - both great dads) is that the first few months to a year, men have a hard time doing either. Providing time or money or can do one but not the other. Men internalize and don’t express as much how much it hurts them to see the family break up. They as do we, feel great guilt. But, moms tend to stick around (not always) and dads tend to detach. So, you going specifically for more time w dad for your kid, is probably the only reason why they have such a good relationship. Because you knew how to prioritize. My mom did such for me. I did such for my girls as well. Most of these dads eventually come around at such reaction.
"Say you have a battery-operated vibrator. And the batteries go out" OMG, LOL! Suggestion: if you want to avoid that situation, use a plug-in Hitachi Magic Wand. The name says it all. Suggestion 2: "Get a haircut, and get a real job" George Thorogood. A great suggestion which I followed for many years until retirement after 45+ years working. I would not have believed this if I had not seen it.
This woman sounds like my mom. She's been a stay at home mom for almost my entire life. I'm almost 17, and I'd say out of those years she's only worked five in total. My parents are getting divorced and she wants me to stay with her so she can demand 1,000 or more in child support from my dad. I'm almost sure she also thinks that if my brother also stays with her she can also get child support for him, even though he's 20.
@@debbieroberts5866 Debbie you are incorrect. CSA legally ends when the child is 16 unless. It was actually ordered that they continue to the age of majority which is 18 years old. CSA continues while a child is in school. Child support last while a child is in school. Once they graduate high school child support ends. So if you went to school at age 4 you should graduate at age 16 I I know I did but if you are in school till age 18 or If the child was held back grades while in school. Or if the child is enrolled in School or any type of advanced education including College. Unless it is in a court order it does not exist so it is court-ordered different in a support order that's a child continue to get support till 18 then so be it but most courts do not know when a child will graduate considering they could be held back at any time or skip a grade at any time that cannot be foreseen. That's why people consider that 18 is when support ends but it's not by law it is 16 subsequently if your child is disabled it's child is in college or high school still it continues to age 20
the fact she does have the audacity to consider her husband being similar to a vibrator is enough for me to see that her kid deserve the support more than her.
The Judge was actually surprisingly a great listener! They’re usually short tempered, ignorant & extremely biased! The judge should’ve actually decreased the child support solely based on what the mom said, living & cared 4 by her mom & NOT paying ANY bills! “We don’t pay for anything!” The dad quoted a low-high figures w/o proof, so support should’ve remained the same or decreased!
It did remain the same the judge counted health insurance as part of child support. I would have demanded she get a job, help contribute towards the kid's college or savings fund or lose custody.
Well the narrator is just incredible annoying. He just goes on and on about how she is so entitled off a 5 minute clip. We really do not know the whole background store and it looks like he cover up much of the conversation with is biased opinion. Well what people are missing is that it does not matter if she has other people who pay her share of raising the cost of the child. The amount he is paying is not too much and she should have shown up with receipts of items she payed for over time to justify the increase and said she was paying her mother some rent and food money. She sound totally unprepared and should have spent some money at least a consult if this was a best thing to do. But I have no clue what a fairly young person does all day just sitting at home. Even though I am a disabled 100% service connected Veteran I still find I have to something with my life then sitting on my butt all day so I volunteer a few hours a week at the Minneapolis Airport. I think what me off the most is the narrator
He (the father) is going to be in charge of the child’s college fund and everything else the child will need because we all know only a little bit of that child support is a actually going to this kid. Also…where the heck was she going with that vibrator story?
I wish the judge would have brought up how beneficial it would be for the child to see his mom working, Opposed to leeching off of her own mother. Her mother needs to stop enabling that lazy, entitled behaviour. Hopefully if her mother sees the video she'll make her get a job.
