Default "Child Support" money?

Supporting the mother *is* supporting the child. I know what you mean but
there's no sane or reasonable way to enforce this.

Of course there is. Our government requires us to maintain receipts for

all tax
deductions for, what--7 years? We call it insane and unreasonable but the
government has no problem requiring us to do it. There is no reason a CP

should
not be subject to audit if there is reason to believe CS is being misused.

All
she needs to do is keep a shoebox for receipts should there be a question.

This
would not apply however, if the amount ordered is in line with the actual
reasonable costs of a child. In that case, there is little room for
"discretionary spending."

I agree with the principle and I know this will be a challenge for those
people who are especially challenged to budget or manage their money.
