skymedic 0 #26 June 4, 2005 Quote You can support a child on $2,000 per year? $166 per month? $41.50 per week? Do you live in Ethiopia? Or did you mean $200,000 over the last ten years? actualy what I paid in child costs was signifcantly more than that...even with my daughters mom dodging me and making it very difficult to see lauren. I paid 20%of my pay at all times. I have never been a delinquent dad. I did what I had to do. amazing thing happened this week. my daughter came home from school with straight A's.....that just did not happen with her mother. not even close by a long shot. and in all honesty my daughter does not cost all that much more to care for. I guess I don't equate amounts of money with quality like you do. Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymedic 0 #27 June 4, 2005 One other thing....since my daughter has been in my physical custody her mom has seen her a grand total of once...for three weeks. and trust me...i would give anything for this woman to see my daughter more often. Lauren aches not seeing her...well at least she used to. now lauren could care less if she comes to get her this summer. and we truly do not say an ill word against the woman. regardless of my real feelings about how much of a fuck up she is.

I paid 20%of my pay at all times Marc: I see what your saying, but imho you shouldn't have to explain why, and how much you pay (or have paid) to anyone. as long as your following the final divorce decree and the court's orders, it wouldn't matter if it were $2.00 a month. QuoteI have never been a delinquent dad. I did what I had to do I was never delinquent either, but i was mailing my payments to the AG's office in Austin, Texas for years. they always have such a heavy case load and have for years. this sometimes caused the payment to get to my ex late. after 14 years it caused quite a problem for me. Quotenot even close by a long shot. and in all honesty my daughter does not cost all that much more to care for. I guess I don't equate amounts of money with quality like you do Good on you Marc. i'm glad to see that at least one of us fathers "got it right" Take Care, God Bless and good luck to you and yours.-Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
