Custodial Parent getting screw over BAD!!! This will amaze you!
by Cara
I have a 12 year old from a previous marriage. His support was set in 1998 at 40 hours a week minimum wage. $46.76 a week. He is over 12K behind. Needless to say he has missed a few payments. Not to mention he does NOT excercise his visitation at all. I am married to a man that has had 50% of his 30K a year job taken by his ex wife. Let me not forget to mention that she is a reg. nurse that administers chemo. to cancer patients. She rakes in well over 100K a year. Did I mention she is almost 40 and still lives with her mother (six years after their divorce.) She is pathetic to say the least. Her mother takes care of the children, so no child care expenses, ect. I have not received child support on my daughter in YEARS, but yet I am stuck footing the bill of driving 160 miles a month, sometimes more to watch T-Ball Games, groceries, and any Birthday and Christmas gifts for his two children. We get his kids every other weekend and NEVER miss. Thank God I own my own home with no morgage. Thats the only way we make it. I find it insane the judge can order my husband to pay so much where he couldnt afford to live on his own, drive to work, and visit his children. I love my step children, but I feel like a candle being burnt at both ends. My husband lost his truck to the bank after they garnished his wages, and just last week lost his job. The State of Texas wont help me, but please pray, I know God will. |
