I am asking this for a friend of mine (really people). It's<br>> a little complicated and I think she is getting bad advice.<br>> **********************************<br>> Circumstances<br>><br>><br>> Father presently has physical custody<br>><br>> Mother has joint custody<br>><br>> Father is remarried<br>><br>> Father makes around $55,000 a year<br>><br>> Mother makes around $30,000 a year<br>><br>> Two kids<br>><br>> At present, the kids live 50%% with Dad and 50%% with mother, although<br>> there is no support order.for either and Dad has full physical custody.<br>> He also travels a lot for his job but as I said, he is remarried.<br>><br>> Mother has history of illegal substance abuse (meth) and served jail<br>> time for it (fairly recently too-hence custody). She is however, in a<br>> recovery program and now attending night school to finish her degree.<br>><br>> They live 1/2 mile apart.<br>><br>> Father does not abuse them, no history of drug using, kids love both<br>> parents. Pretty normal guy, remarried.<br>><br>> She has asked him to help buy little things for the kids..normal<br>> stuff..backpacks, clothes, etc. He reminded her he has cuustody and<br>> said he will fight it<br>> **********************************************************************<br>><br>> She is being advised to go for custody and child support and her lawyer<br>> and friends say she could win. I think she is going to end up getting<br>> screwed. As of right now, no support order exist, and she has the kids<br>> 50%% of the time..more than the order stipulates. I think he will<br>> certaiinly, if brought back into court, ask for support from her. My<br>> advice to her is to leave things as it is for now, get more recovery<br>> time under her belt and then go for joint physical custody and forget<br>> the support..to call it a "draw"<br>><br>> Don't be judgemental on this. Just what do you guys think?<br><br>Judges know there are tweakers, but no former tweakers who are still alive.<br>Meth is so highly addictive people who use it relapse easily and end up back<br>in custody for parole violations.  No judge is going to take the chance of<br>awarding a custody change to a tweaker.<br><br>I have neighbors who are dealing with this issue.  They have had their meth<br>addicted daughter, who has two children and does not have custody, living<br>with them trying to help her get straight. The daughter can spot a tweaker a<br>mile away.  She has been in and out of the state women's prison and halfway<br>houses.  They finally had to kick her out of their house and call her parole<br>officer to turn her in again.  Yesterday the grandparents (my neighbors) got<br>custody of the youngest minor grandchild.<br><br>Tweakers never quit using meth.  They just stop temporarily.<br><br><br>

	<description><![CDATA[There is a quote from a German economist in the 19th century that went<br>to the effect of "Why do we keep repeating the truth again and again?<br>Because the liars keep lying again and again."  I am starting to feel<br>tha way with these deadbeat lists.<br><br><a href="http://www.delawareonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070117/NEWS/70117061" rel="nofollow" class="url" target="_blank">http://www.delawareonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070117/NEWS/70117061</a><br><br>I read your article today ("Wanted poster targets new group of deadbeat<br>dads") and I wish to congratulate you and the Deleware Division of Child<br>Support Enforcement for enforcing the fact that the CSE is anti-male,<br>anti-father, and generally speaking anti-NCP.<br>First off, I would like to note that you took 10 men and no women?  Are<br>women really all that caught up on their payments?  Or is it just that<br>their payments are just to infinitely smaller than the males to make it<br>look laughable?  Why not base it on months behind rather than actual<br>child support amounts?<br>Of course, I and millions of fathers know the reason.  The child support<br>division has just about as much concern for children as lifelong<br>bachelors.  It's the money they want, not families intact and bridges<br>mentioned.  They're in it for the paycheck, ca-ching.<br>I've evaluated lists like this on my blog, the NCP revue<br>(<a href="http://pueblonative.wordpress.com/2007/01/15/okay-kiddies-math-time-again-with-mr-child-support-calculator" rel="nofollow" class="url" target="_blank">http://pueblonative.wordpress.com/2007/01/15/okay-kiddies-math-time-again-with-mr...</a>/)<br>Suffice it to say, if I did the same with this one, the results would<br>come up the same.  Namely, in order to get to this amount, the payments<br>are far more than "a couple of hundred bucks a month" as one Einstein of<br>a Texas AG put it.<br>How much of this is actual child support, and how much of this is<br>arrears?  How much of this child support is based on imputed income<br>(that is a figure the judge made up), and how much is retroactive, or<br>before the time that the actual child support order was declared for?<br>And for that matter, have any of these men been out of work, ill,<br>hospitalized?  Until you answers these questions, I will consider this<br>list just as useless as any other and these deadbeats dads more dads<br>beaten dead by a grossly unfair and unjust system.<br>Looking into these facts might make a more rounded out story, which I<br>fear modern journalists lack the ethic to pursue.<br>If you would like, I can send you on another e-mail my phone number<br>should you wish to run this as a letter to the editor, or you can send<br>me one (long distance or not).<br><br>John Meyer,<br>Pueblo, CO<br>

This news story focuses on women.  It fudges the issue of <br>whether they are unmarried because they don't WANT to marry, or because no <br>man has any interest in marrying them.<br><br>    In the wider context, it seems to me that the breakdown of the family <br>has VERY serious consequences for Western countries in matters such as crime <br>rates and educational standards.  Falling birth rates (relative to, say, <br>Moslems in Western countries and in Moslem countries) also are contributing <br>to the decline of Western countries.<br><br>    It is hard to see how these trends can be reversed without making <br>marriage and family a more appealing proposition for men.  In turn, that <br>will require redressing the balance of power within marriage, which--as <br>result of things like no-fault divorce, community property laws, and child <br>support--has for about 30-40 years been shifting in favor of women. <br><br><br>

Tax exemptions<br>and tax filing status are two separate things with different IRS definitions<br>for when and how they apply.  No state court divorce decree can override<br>federal tax law.  If you gave up the child exemption for some reason you can<br>still file head of household.<br>I<br>> am not askinga  toal stranger to pay money to me.  I am asking that my<br>> ex quit lying about his expenses.<br><br>CS has nothing to do with the NCP's expenses.  It doesn't matter what he<br>claims as his expenses.  His income is the only real factor used for<br>determining CS awards.<br><br><br>

I do not care what any of<br>> you woman haters write on this board.  I will lurk form here on out.<br>> To think I could actually carry on an intelligent conversation with any<br>> of you.  Well there were a few posters who seemed to have that ability,<br>> but your nastiness has far outweighed the value of a good debate and<br>> problem solving to fix everything wrong with our system.  And it is sad<br>> that you have to resort to using nasty names to get your point across.<br>> I imagine your next issue will be, well if mom cannot get a good enough<br>> job to support the child in the manner he or she has been accustomed<br>> to, then give the child to me.  I will do it.  All well and good if you<br>> did it before.  My ex DID NOT.  I did, plain and simple.  I took our<br>> child to doctor appts, to preschool functions, to church, to birthday<br>> parties.  I did everything except for one small detail.  I stayed at<br>> hoem with little or no income.<br><br>The parenting role described above is the basis for the "primary caregiver"<br>type of child custody.  Primary caregiver custody is based on repetitive<br>tasks, normally defined in such a way they recite the mother's tasks, so<br>that it becomes a thinnly disguised version of the old "maternal preference"<br>type of child custody.  Primary caregiver custody was changed by all of the<br>states to the "best interest of the child" child custody standard.<br><br>While the best interest custody standard is less rigidly defined, it does<br>allow for looking at custody decisions from the perspective of the child<br>rather than which parent performs the most tasks.  The best interest<br>standard also takes into consideration the changing needs of the child over<br>time.  A glaring example would be breastfeeding.  While this may be a<br>critical task for a new born, it can be overcome by a mother extracting her<br>milk and letting a "best interest" child custody parent feed the child from<br>a bottle.  Likewise, tasks like breastfeeding are only necessary for very<br>young children.  The parenting skills required to raise older, teenage child<br>are far different.<br><br>The best interest standard of custody, which the OP seems to ignore,<br>includes things like love, family attachments, acceptance, nuturance,<br>self-esteem, autonomy, discipline, promoting education, expanding<br>boundaries, etc.  Many older children come to live with their fathers<br>because those are the conceptual child developmemt issues fathers excel at<br>providing for their children.<br><br><br>
