Wondering other folks opinion on this. There was thread on another board discussing SSN's on hunting lic. to find debeat dads. In thinking about this I think we should work for a law that ensures that child support money is used to support the children. I think the what ever percentage of a fathers income goes to child support, a like percentage of the mothers income should have to be devoted to the support of the child also. I would like to see legislation that in effect forces the parents to use child support money soley for the support of the child. House, food, clothing ect. I think the absent parent should have the right to have the other parents expenses audited and if it's found that the support is not being used to support the child, the absent parent can withhold the amount being used wrong and place those funds in a trust account the child can use for college or as a young adult.
I know of many cases where absent parents pay as much as $1500.00/month per child and then still have to pay for band or sports and/or buy there kids clothes. Why is there nothing to ensure that the custodial parent actually uses that money for the children and why is there nothing to ensure that both parents provide equall levels of support?
I would like to hear others thoughts. I realize this has little if anything to do with RKBA.
