Child support stuck in system
Special Report: In the often-contentious world of child support, it's
not uncommon for one parent to tell the other that the child-support
check is "in the mail." Sometimes, it's just an excuse to put off a
nagging ex-spouse.

Of course the states will never cough up the interest accumulated from
holding the money either.

Just another example why this has nothing to do with supporting children and
more to do with the state making a profit off of interest payments. If you
are going to be required to pay it should be direct without state
involvment.

Deadbeat State

Linda Hoffman thought her ex-husband wasn't paying child support. He was--but
the state was keeping it for no reason.

By CHRIS LIMBERIS

Linda Hoffman and Charles Kausler had been divorced for nearly 24 years and
rarely spoke when they both attended their daughter's 30th birthday on March
10, 1997.

The venue, Crossroads Restaurant, was neutral, yet familiar enough for Hoffman
and Kausler to advance domestic détente. There was plenty of cause for
confrontation during the dinner, but Hoffman bit her lip.

But when they moved into the parking lot after dinner, Hoffman took her chance.


"I looked at him and said, 'Why didn't you ever pay child support?'" Hoffman
recalled. "And he kind of scratched his head and asked, 'What do you mean? I
did. They took $10,000 out of the bank in downtown Tucson in 1981, and I had
only put it in days before.'"

Uh, no. A story isn't going to "put off" anyone.

Of course the states will never cough up the interest accumulated from
holding the money either.
