Ex is now causing major drama

My bad... geez... Let me rephrase somewhat.

Thanks for clarifying what you actually meant, but my post was a response to what you actually said.

and to the other critics:

Okay.

The original intent of child support laws was to insure that the child may have a standard of living that is close to what he would enjoy if the parents had stayed together. Nothing was said about maintaining a standard of living that was enjoyed when the family was intact. There is a difference.

There is a difference but that is NOT the intent. The intent is that both parents are legally responsible to contribute to the financial support of the child. It soudns pretty to state that the standard of living is close to what would have been enjoyed had the parents stayed together but that is not true. The purpose is to make sure that both parents (both the obligee and obligor) partake equitably in the costs of raising the child or children.

Also, the purpose is not to insure the child receives financial support equally from both parents, but equitably from both parents.

That sentence is true.

Finally, it is true that both parents' incomes are used to determine support in some states, but not in all states. Actually, the quote above speaks more to "standard of living" than not.

And standard of living is not really true because it does not take into consideration that both the obligor and obligee need to provide for the child in two different households and both have expenses they incur in raising the child in their own homes and so on and so forth. Nice fallacy but not completely true.

ps - if you have an accurate and relevant definition of child support, or the purpose of chlild support, then please post it for the rest of us.

Quite frankly child support acts as a reimbursement of a portion of expenses incurred by the obligee while raising the child of the obligor.

I'm just gonna say on a topic somewhat unrelated to the last few responses, I tend to think that this OP is a troll, or really not worth the time of anyone on this board.

Every question she has asked, including this one, has completely lacked any form of using common sense (or for that matter, courtesy towards Mom and her child). Nothing is getting through to this woman.

Moreso, I believe it is a waste of the time of the people responding, because clearly, everytime one issue seems to be settled, another will come up, and rarely will they truly be valid in any legal sense beyond what she has already been told (ie, she will post more of the same petty crap in different contexts over, and over, and over again).

Unless you really like to be amused by this stuff, I would think you'd just want to ignore this OP in the future. There certainly probably other people on these boards who would better put to use your responses than this woman.

That's my 2 cents though.

Yeah well keep your 2 cents to yourself. I didn't ask for it and quite frankly I can ask whatever damn question I want to ask. This is a free world, correct?

Yes, and therefore I can point out that I think you're wasting people's time, because frankly, that seems to be all you're interested in doing.. well, that and making mom's life a living hell when you can.

By the way, your husband really does need to get a job, or you need to just buck up and decide you'll buy for the baby what he needs for when he's with you and your husband, without complaining. You got yourself into this whole mess when you married him, if you want out, get a divorce, otherwise deal. But really, it does seem like you are griping over any possible issue you can find, and your questions seems to be directed more than garnering sympathy then actually getting advice.

What is interesting to me is that you really haven't been getting any sympathy at all, but you're still here harping on the same basic issue, and that it what makes me believe it's likely you're not just stupid, but trolling.

What happened to ignoring the poster, ErynSMA? Admit it - you find her amusing, too!

My thoughts exactly! If I'm so annoying with the same questions and comments, then don't respond

I find posters like Left Out and yourself to be very amusing in your ignorance and idiocy. So keep the entertainment coming! Even better, bring your sluggard of a hubby along!

But, this one was MAJOR drama.
