Your attitude is pretty ****ed up. It'll have someone to call Dad. *It doesn't matter that it isn't me. Actually, you are wrong. If your net monthly income is over $1000 per month, Minnesota is 24% for one child. It's a graduated scale based upon total income. Your number for Indiana is GROSS income, not NET income. Significant difference. But the differetn states you mention don't matter. The only state that matters is the state where the suit is filed, and that is typically the state and county where the mother lives. Where you personally are has no bearing. Also, you will be nailed for child care (at least 50%). My 4 year old's child care is $800 a month. I forgot to mention that. She can send the kid to the "Harvard" of days cares and there is nothing you can do about it. An FYI, $1000 a month is below povery level. Unlikely for a lawyer. Unless you are dead and buried, but even dead lawyers seem to be able to make more than that..haha If you claim zero income (or even diminished income), the judge will "impute" your income. This is the RULE, not the EXCEPTION. I'm sure you know what that means but if you don't, he will see a college grad with a law degree. Being a judge, I think he will have a pretty good idea of your earnings potential as a lawyer, and use the law degree and determine what a lawyer in the private sector can earn per year and base your support payment on that, regardless if you make that or not. If you are in the armed forces, it's not zero. By the way, paying back your student loans are your problem. Those have no bearing on your ability to pay child support. And if your income is zero, how can you pay back your loans? Dude, you are seriously naive when it comes to this ****. You are going to pay MUCH more than you even imagine. Much much more. And you will do it for 18+ years. Dude, you better lose the attitude, because if you go into court with this attitude, the judge is basically going to bitch sap you. Does everyone agree with me? |

If you really do not want to be in this child's life, and another man really wants to be, maybe he will ask you to sign away your parental rights so he can adopt the child. *That is the only way you can get out of this totally free. *So you'd better hope that your opinion of the mother of this child isn't shared by everyone she meets. - Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text -- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - that is a good point teacher...in Illinois, an attorney who is in default on CS cannot practice..anyone with any kind of professional license will lose it..in addition to your drivers license. My guess is you cannt take the Bar if you are in default. I am assuming but what would be the point of taking it if it cant be used. Frie- You are a young guy full of **** and vinegar. You need to understand your life is seriously more f-up'ed than you think it is. And even more so because you want nothing to do with your child. Someone said hopefully, the "new" Dad will want to adopt. It takes a loving mature man to do that and hopfully, for the good of your kid, you girlfriend/whatever finds someone like that. You might want to enroll her in Match.com or eHarmonry or something to get the ball rolling..hahahahaha Your innocent child derserves better. |

Sue for custody and child her child support.
With her drug habit, you're sure to win. wrote in message oups.com... If it were about the KID and not her own selfish desire to be a mother, she'd put it up for adoption and it would have more opportunities. She's a pot head who's going nowhere and wanted to bring a child into her world. I have no interest in any kind of life with her, and feel no moral obligation towards her crotchling. If itests prove that it shares genetic material with me, I'm out some money. Oh well. -- The Source For Premium Newsgroup Access Great Speed, Great Retention 1 GB/Day for only $8.95 |

My undergraduate GPA was utterly laughable (2.6), but I did very well on the LSAT and have some solid offers on the table for Law School. But how on earth can I make it through law school if I have to make child support payments? Are there any states that more favorable to grad students? I need the lowest payment possible because I'm going to have to do this all on loans. Didn't ANYBODY warn you that sex can cause pregnancy whether you use protection or not? And that having a child WILL change your life forever? Inasmuch as I commend you for planning a lucrative career path (which would provide for the cost of a family should your education be completed), there is no provision in the law (nor in nature) that allows you to continue following that path while putting your obligations on hold until you reach the point where you can handle your obligations. You may very well have thrown your dreams out the window for a few moments of physical pleasure. That said, it is not yet time to despair. Be sure that DNA testing assures that you are the baby's father before making alterations in your life's path. Then, if you are proven to be the father, you are going to need to help support the child either directly or indirectly. Although I know that right now you are very concerned about how this may impact your life, it does bother me that you are already trying to figure out how to contribute the minimum you can toward the child's needs. Who is responsible for taking care of any obligations not met by your minimum contribution? Yes, we can say that the woman who has the choices to continue this pregnancy must, but let's get real... if you are contributing a minimal amount, chances are that TAXPAYERS (i.e. me) will be contributing as well. Tell me, why should WE help you get through law school? Let's see now. He can pass law school while we help for a little while. Or he can flip burgers his whole life and we can help all the child's life. Is that good enough reason? I saw we should be HELPING such fathers make the best of themselves and get them out of the poor cycle. Think McFly!! Think!! I AM thinking. He wants an easy road at my (taxpayer) expense. Who said he can't go to school while working to deal with his obligations? I went to school AND provided for myself and WELL more than half of my children's needs... and I did all that comes with actually RAISING children. He won't have it half as hard since he wants nothing to do with his child. Beverly |

In my state, joint custody is almost always awarded barring gross
neglect or abuse. Her pot-smoking constitutes neither. Though I could call the department of health and family services, because she's "smoking for two" right now. I've talked to a family lawyer at a free legal clinic, and he said I'd pretty much be limited to "weekend dad," because she'll have all the time in the world (what with state aid, no school, and my CS). And if it comes to that, frankly, I'd rather not see the job of parenting she's doing. She can't even take care of herself. |
