Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, I am going through the SAME shit, but paying a couple hundred more. I have been in court since October for this bullshit. I feel you Joey, & I am trying to get 50% as well.
BM dont even have a job but she sure as shit got fake hair, fake eyes, fake tits, tummy tuck, fake tan... fake as bitch.
I feel you big bruh...Even though my situation has gotten drastically better..Its still a hastle...I still recive statements from the child support office every month saying i owe 0.00....The reason they send me that is because my BM is on AID and is not working.....
The DCSS told me SHE has the power to close the case, so i requested them to ask her and she of course rejected.....Shit I just texted her yesterday asking if she would drop the case, in exchange i said she could claim my daughter on her taxes every year.....(which she has the whole time anyway)because of the custody percentage....I did not get a response....
I've been a stay at home parent of 4 the last 3 1/2 years...If and when i go back to work they will want money from me for that aid..
Being a stay at home Dad has been a blessing...I missed the majority of my daughters life for the 1st 4-5 years (fighting for custody)....But I have gotten to raise my son from the jump...Every second of his life....
I'm done being mad at my BM for what she did to me (and what i did to myself)....I just dont want the system in my business anymore...Seeing those statements from DCSS is a constant reminder of the nightmare i had for 5 years of my life.....I just want to move on....But she is keeping the case open for a reason and probably has something up her sleeve.....
Sometimes i feel like once a women knows how to manipulate the system in this custody child support thing....It becomes more of a hustle to them rather than a parental issue....
I have 2 step kids(they are mine tho)..Whom i inherited when they were 3 and 5....There father was no where to be found for 3 years...No calls no nothing.....My wife asked me if she should seek support...I told her no....She's a nurse and makes bread anyway...Were good....He dosent have a job had 2 more kids and 2 step kids....He needs all the money he can get...
It was probably weighing on his heart more than anything that he wasnt seeing his kids for that time.....Or at least i hope it was.....Those kids missed the hell out of him for that time 2....
Shit if my wife and i got divorced....(which i hope never happens) but if it does i wouldnt seek alimony....No matter what the situation was.....I dont want handouts from anyone....Id go back to my sales job and get in hustle mode once agian.....
Im ranting..but o well...People suck sometimes....And so do my decisions in life(but were not talking about that right now)LOL.....
Fight the good fight SHEA....It will never end...but try and make it better....At least your trying which alot of fathers dont do....Fuckin sad big homie...
