(Tuscon)
I make 12.65 an hour, Im about to be laid off, I pay 800.00 dollars amonth in child suport, regardless if I make 40 hours or not. I cant pay my car payment which 200.00 dollars I cant pay my insurance (100.00) or help my girl friend pay the rent. jobs are so hard to find a second job is almost out of the question, even though Im trying. I love love my kids and I suffer so they can be taken care of but not once have I been late on a payment.and I cant even feed my self I try to talk to the child support office and they treat me like im a criminal. What am I supposed to do? I am a slave to child support Ive been more than responsable. The system is forcing me to run and I dont want to do that. I just want to live my life do my part for my kids an be happy but this vicious cycle is going to put me in jail and all i did is get a divorce after 10 years of torture, i did not love her. I was trying to be a responsible person cause she got pregnant. Some times I only bring home 100.00 dollar check why should I work to feed my kids if i cant feed myself or pay for my car so that I can get to work. I dont have money for a lawyer. when I do get a decent check I play catch up.
