I had a relationship with this guy, won't mention his name, and in the time we were together i got pregnant to him by mistake. He is a lawyer and a massive a hole. He turned into a huge ahole the moment i told him i was going to keep the baby. Im 38 yrs so it was now or never. He said i will be going thru it on my own without his support, So i did. My daughter is now 16months and the most gorgeous little girl, she is a blessing. I believe her father should pay child support, but he won't. He said it was my choice to have her, so its my resposiblity to suppport her. I asked him if he would agree to a paternity test and he said no. I told him he should help support her financially but he said thats extortion and if i went ahead with child support he would take her off me. He's a lawyer and he said he would do all he could to take her off me if i force him to pay. I'm worried this ahole will take her off me or get access to her, he would mistreat her and i dont want that. jo

the mother has always said my husband wasn't the little girl's father, now that the child is 12 yrs old, she decided 2 ask 4 child support, after a paternity test (finally after 12 yrs!!) confirmed he is the father. well, several "negotiations" have been held, she has only attended 1 and missed the past 2, shes the 1 filing 4 child support, if she shows no interest in showing up 4 the appts, can she be penalized? it doesn't seem fair that she could just continuously waste every ones time and continuously change her mind on decisions previously agreed to?? for example she said she'd drop back payments since my husband didn't have the opportunity 2 pay at that time as long as he showed active interest in the child's life. (Which he has done and as a matter of fact has grown to love her very much very quickly.) now she has began talkin bout paying off her credit card bills!!! Anyway, we have 4 children in our home already that we work very hard to support. The little girl is a result of a relationship prior to ours beginning.
