I know in our county, 1/3 of all grand jury indictments are child support related.

Now granted, it wasn't over small sums - they aren't going to haul your ass to court for owing $900, but once it gets into the thousands, you will be arrested

which is always a good idea right ? have the guy lose his job and sit in jail so nobody has any money.


I can see what Travis is saying but you can't really have a father not supporting the kids while at the same time, have those kids eligible for welfare at the taxpayer's expense solely because he is capable of paying but chooses not to.

We really should just stick with the old format where if you get married and have kids,and if it doesn't work out you just stay miserable for the next 18 years until they move out.


have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings
