Fathers Rights

Fathers Rights
When two people divorce and there are children involved, two things generally happen. Either one of the parents will gain custody of the children and the other will pay child support, in most cases.

Depending on the circumstances, the courts generally (not all the time) favor the mother and grant her custody, leaving the father to pay child support if ordered by the courts. There should be such a thing as fathers rights that will ensure and encourage visitations for those fathers who pay child support. Also, there should be an easier way to allow for modifications in child support payments, based on the most current income and not what was made 5 years ago.

Fathers Rights and Child Support
When child support is awarded to the custodial parent (in this case the mother) for the support and care of her child/children, the father has every right to visitations. There have been many stories where the father pays his child support and the mother refuses to allow him to see their children. Some of these fathers try to contact the Attorney General’s office but was unable to receive any help because they do not deal with visitation enforcement. When dads pay child support and not allowed visitation, their fathers rights have been stripped away from them. Below you will find such dads whom have had their fathers right taken away from them because the mother would not allow them to see their children.

Modifications
When a father is ordered to pay child support the payments are based on how many children he has and how much he makes. Some fathers pay $200 to $300 a month on child support payments and other fathers pay well over $1000 a month. Those fathers who make a substantial amount of money can one day become jobless or reduce to making peanuts, sort of speak. When that happens most fathers continue to pay child support based on what was made from their previous jobs leaving them to struggle in life. Modifications in some states are done every 2 to 3 years or at the request of the custodial parent. When a father loses his job or making less than before, the state should not give the father a hard time when requesting modifications to lower their child support payments. However, on the flip side, if a father is actually making more, they should also pay more in child support payments. Below you will see links to stories of fathers who are paying child support based on the income that they use to make.

Fathers Rights VS. Dead Beat Dads
There are good fathers out there who are willing to pay their child support payments on time and are being victimize by mothers who deny them their visitations. Good fathers who understand and take responsibilities for their obligations should be reward, not punished. The system generally (once again, in most cases) favor the mother and treat the father like a dead beat dad. Now, there are those fathers that are labeled as Dead Beat Dads whom will not work for the sole purpose of avoiding child support payments. Some will work under the table, get a job and keep it for about 6 months then quit before the Attorney General’s Office finds the locations of their employment. These fathers should be punished because they make all fathers look bad , and in the long run, will lower the rights to visitations, modifications, and the right to be called a good father.

If you as a father had your rights violated, please share your experience. You are not alone, there are other fathers who do the right thing and are punished. Share your story, help get the word across the Nation.
