but JAIL? I mean, jail is reserved to keep scum off the streets... the truth is, you take a risk anytime you have children with someone that they might not support them. The fact you're getting half is better than what a lot of other women get: zero. The economy sucks ass, so how do you know he can send more? And why would you want someone to be incarcerated, anally raped, abused and turned into a worse person just because he doesn't want to spend time with his kids? After jail, you think he's gonna be a BETTER person? Just because you are bitter about the raw deal you got, maybe you should be thankful that such a deadbeat isn't around to be a role model for your kids... since apparently NOW it's all about the fact he doesn't spend time with them (uh huh RIGHT).

Count your blessings and realize that any support is better than none at all....i been battling this for about ten years and you can't force them to spend time with their kids. they got to realize themselves that they are truly missing out. i have gotten about 15 payments in 10 years, so that is definitely an effort on your baby daddy's part.

There were times when I was growing up that we were so poor that if dad had not been paying child support both my brother and I would have seriously suffered/starved. Mom was working as hard as she could, she just couldn't find jobs that paid well and fit around our school schedule. That money is just as important to the well being of your kids as spending time with their dad is to their developmental psychology. And you didn't put him in jail, the courts did.

Stop being one of those moms who are all about the money. Seems it really has nothing to do with your kids, but just a quick way to get back at the dad for not paying ALL of it. Be glad he pays and stop bitching about it. Your kids are more important than money, and you didn't mention anything about money troubles, so move on...leave the guy be. You put him in jail, he'll have it on his record and it could make him look bad for any other future jobs. No job for him = ZERO money for you.

I'm pretty sure I know him because my oldest is 11 and youngest is 3 1/2! Ignorance!
Something is better then nothing but the fact that he spends no time with them is the real issue.

Should have kept your legs close then until you got to know him better.
