Dead Beat Dads!!!

What is it with some men who seem to think it's okay to play games with their children's lives. Most mothers are always there for their children.  Some men seem to think they can walk away whenever they feel like it and they are not responsible for the children they make.  It's like they think it is the mother's job to make sure their kids are taken care of and they don't have to worry about putting food on the table or making sure their children have the clothes or things they need.  When you tell them they need clothes for school, damn they are no longer the dad and want a test. The courts up here in Michigan don't help mother's either. They told him he only had to pay $51.00 a month for child support for two children.  The courts up here are a joke.  It's a complete outrage what they do up here. He walked into the court with fake pay stubs saying he works less than minimum wage part time and the dumb ass judge believed him. The dead beat dad is part owner of a gas station and therefore can forge pay stubs for himself.  Even when the judge was told he was lying he said I had to prove it. Now, shouldn't the father be the one to have to prove what he makes. Not the mother. That's why there are way too many children out there who are not being taken care of by their fathers. It's like no one seems to care. The judges sit up there collecting their big fat paychecks to screw over mother's and their children. They ought to put men like that in prison. I know they say they will. But, they don't. Not up here. At least not until they get too far behind in what they call child support. To get the money, it means I have to take him back to court and miss work. If the dad isn't helping take care of them you can't afford to take off work. The courts tie our hands behind our back and there is nothing we can do about it.
