Here goes........

Well since Dad's not much of a typist, I'm gonna blog a little.

But I also hope to hear from other people. I'd like this blog to be as much about your stories as about ours. I know you're out there. And when you've told people ... about the abuse of the child support system, the lawyers, the judges, the government agencies, the lies, the hurt, the detroying of your family..... they give you that half hearted smile and with their wince of disbelief, a polite "Aw, that too bad." Been there.

Over the years as more people have spoken out, some changes have been made for the better. Now more than ever, joint custody is assumed. But even with joint custody, in most all divorces somebody is paying to financially support their former spouse's household. There are cases when this might be considered appropriate. So, don't get me wrong.

What I want you to understand, first and foremost is this: the States are collecting this money called "child support" and for collecting it they receive Federal incentives. That's pretty simple, they more they collect the more incentives they get = it's a cash cow.

Now, I'm going to try really hard not to turn my first little post into a rant. That's enough for today.

There are some very important organizations out there that have been making a difference for many years. And they are growing and prospering. All because we've been talking about it. Awareness. Keep telling your story and I'll keep telling mine. Because, really... we've only just begun.

Please visit my friends....
