My Day in Court

At that point, the courts could be used to get support in only the most egregious of cases--which is how it was always supposed to be! |

Good intentions is how this country got to the state it is in. Keep government out of our lives and leave the rest of the world alone, government can't even fix roads properly! We have had a proliferation ofthe most asinine lawsuits known to man in the last umpteen years. There is nothing wrong with redressing civil wron with a lawsuit, but it has gotten to the point of beyond ridiculous. This is not what civil law was meant ot be for. I think we seriously need tort reform--but not to the point of totally doing away with the system of civil law. I feel the same way about child support. There ARE times that the intervention of the court is needed--but they should be very few and very far between. And the system should be FAIR--not obviously weighted in favor of the mother as it is today. I DON'T want to go back to the system where ignoble men can strew their seed with no thought ofr consequences--but today's system permits women to produce children with no thought for the consequences, so it isn't any better! Take away the unfair imbalance, and I think that 98% of the CS cases would disappear. |

Yet, when I was a single mom, I couldn't imagine giving that control to government and wouldn't even think of it--for a piddly amount of money and years of battles?? Incomprehensible. |

Or allowing government defined children's rights to trump their own parental rights. Government rhetoric about our children's rights is tempting for mothers to accept because they use the reward of custody and the father's money to buy compliance. If child custody and CS money were much less predictable, and the outcome of court decisions were in doubt, fewer women would accept the incentives to breakup families. |
