As a single parent, I definitely think that they should be responsible...especially when before they were disabled short term they were out blowing all of their money on some woman that ends up leaving them when they have had surgery....yeah, I sound like I'm speaking from experience...well I AM! I have been browsing and seen so many forums about this where people are putting the mother down for asking about this! Well, GUESS WHAT....if I were to become disabled, i would still be responsible for all of my kids' needs!! The majority of men don't pay a fraction in child support of what it actually would cost them to raise a family! I understand the fact of "compassion", HOWEVER when you have a child and are getting short term disability, WHAT IN THE F*%@ WOULD KEEP YOU FROM TAKING YOUR CHILD MONEY TO SUPPORT HIM/ HER???? you already aren't a full time dad so get over yourself and take care of your kids! What would happen if the "disabled" parent had to take on full responsibilty for the child/ children????? They would somehow have to make that short term disability stretch a little further!!!!
