Why do women put men on child support out of anger?

Answer 1

Good question. I would like to know the answer to that one myself, as I have personally had a woman tell me while she was pregnant she didn't want to put me in child support but after our breakup while she was still pregnant, she told me she wouldn't let me see the kids and to just: "pay child support".

There is no law in place to protect someone from this and far too many women who do put men on child support out of anger but who can prove it anyway?

People say many things when they are disappointed and angry but that does not mean all their actions after the breakup is out of anger. Children cost a fortune and that is something you find out down the road, exactly how much. One parent can not decide whether the other parent will be allowed to see their child or not. That is where the law comes in because people can be petty and not think of their child first. Child support is not a punishment, it's supporting your child. See it as a privilege to have a child and to be able to support it. Very few people is living large on child support.

Clarification

The question is completely lacking in any responsibility for supporting a child that was brought into the world and reduces it all to a petty squabble. It's not. If a father feels threatened by the possibility of having to pay child support then he needs to find his big boy pants and accept responsibility for the child he helped to bring into the world.

Child support is not just another petty source of squabbling for irresponsible parents. Everyone involved needs to remove it from the drama of adults who bring babies into the world who cannot even get along with each other. Women do not "put men on child support", courts do. Perhaps if you use the correct language it would help you understand your responsibilities better- your perspective needs readjusting. Most of the parents who engage in this type of behavior are receiving some type of state financial assistance. The taxpayers are supporting the mother and child. The father needs to step up and pay his share and help take the burden off the taxpayers.

Every parent by law must support their children. Women don't put men on child support. Courts issue child support orders when the child's father has been identified through a paternity test. Every child is entitled to receive child support from their father regardless of whether or not the mother is responsible enough to identify the father and request it. It's not something the child's mother is holding over you, it's the law.
