Would you put child support on your baby's father?
Even though I make more money, he has an obligation to her as well and I'm not letting my child be forgotten and tossed aside by someone who created her. When he left, I told a friend I wasn't going after child support because I'd rather forget he even existed. He wanted the baby when he poked the holes in the condoms, didn't want her when he met a new woman. I wasn't inviting that instability into my child's life. My friend's advice was a savings account for college. Turns out babies are more expensive than I remembered, plus I ended up working less with a baby to get home to. Not holding him responsible isn't just his loss. It's kinda mine too. And it's definitely hers. She has the right to whatever she can get from him. Which apparently isn't an interest in her well being, but it is her needs being met.
Should I Put My Baby's Father On Child Support?
Im 17 Years Old And my Baby's Father is About To Be 19. We Been Together For 3 Years But He's Been Cheating With Multiple Girls For The Past Year And Has A "Main Side Hoe". He Stays The Night At Her House Almost Every night And Has Only Stayed The Night Over Here Twice Since Our 3 Month Old Baby Was Born. Don't Get Me Wrong , Im Not Mad About The Staying The Night At Her House Im Just Mad At The Fact That Im Still In School And Need To Catch Up On my School Work in Order To Pass But I Cant Do That If Im Up All Hours Of The Night With Our Baby And No Help. I Also Feel As Though He Puts The Girl And Other Girls Before Our Daughter. He Still Tells Me He Loves Me And Wants To Be With Me , We Still Have Sex. But He Also is Telling The Girl That He Cant Stand Me And He Wishes I Die Which is Very Very Hurtful. My Baby And I Only See Him About Once A Week And Only Get a Phone Call Once A Day. He Caught Chlamydia From The Girl And Gave It To Me While I Was Pregnant Which Could Have Led To Birth Defects Of Our Child .When i ask Him About Other Girls He Gets Upset , Smacks Me , Chokes Me And Throws Me Around Like Im A Rag doll. I Just Need To Know Should i Put Him On Child Support Just To Begin the Process Of Getting Him Out Of Our Lives ?
Should I put my child's father on child support?
LOL so the "benefits" only o one way in these types of relationships, is that what you are telling me? What are your plans once his REAL girlfriend decides she wants him all to herself? What are you going to do when she insists that all his extra cash be spent on her and not some spawn forma a drunken tryst? Time to grow up mommy. You have a child now. You are not longer that hot little club babe that guys all ran after. You are a mother and will be for a long, long time. Get a family law attorney and get a court order for X amount of child support every month. Do it now. HE has a whole life ahead of him and YOU are excess baggage. He did not want to be a father. THOSE are not the "benefits" he saw in being with you. You have responsibility now. The fun is over mom. Get it in writing and do it now before girlfriend (the real one) decides you are history. SHE is in the bed now. You are used goods sister.
Can I put my baby’s father on child support although he is a 15 year old minor in FL?
I’m not sure an underage child can be held to any contract like that until he turns 18. Does he even have a job? Because if he has no job there’s no money to pay you anyway. That’s how many dead beat dads get out of paying child support. You can’t get money he doesn’t have. In Florida as in most states, child support is based on income. No income, no support. You might try to go to court and get a Judgement for if and when he does ever get a job. But as long as he doesn’t have a job you are not likely to get anything from him.Best way not to be a single unsupported mother is to not have unprotected sex. Always insist on condoms and get in the pill yourself.
Child support from multiple fathers?
Yes, conceivably she could get 100% with those parameters. How much the other dad pays her in support will not affect the calculation of how much you would pay. But in respect to your additional details, you would have a good chance of getting at least joint physical custody. If you can prove that her living conditions are less than desirable, you may be able to get primary custody. The courts no longer favor the mother by default, despite the fact that many people think they still do. They are supposed to do what is best for the child and foster the child's relationship with BOTH parents whenever possible. I have divorced friends who have physical joint custody & neither one of them is liable for child support to the other. They literally cut the week in half, so they both have to cover their own expenses. Also, don't forget that if she works & has custody, her income, if over a certain amount, will lower the amount you would owe (child support from others does not count). Alternatively, if you gain full custody & she owes you child support, she can't necessarily not work to get out of paying you support. If a court determines that a NCP is not earning within expectations. they may base an order of support on earning potential, rather than actual income. Oh, and since she cheated on you, I hope you are getting a DNA test? I hope everything works out for you & your child. Good luck!
Should i put my babydaddy on child support ?
I think you found a winner!!! :::Sarcasm::: YES, file child support because you are not married, and a court order with payments going through the state will protect BOTH of you. With a court order for child support you can ensure he is held accountable for his child, and he can ensure that anything you receive in support of the child is documented so he doesn't face "arrears" later on when the child is 5 years old. There will be a document of all payments. If you live together then the money will filter back into the household but will allow you more control to take care of the baby's needs before he can say "No." Personally, I think he sounds like a loser and you should feel blessed if he walks out, but that is just my personal opinion.
Child support-If I take father off can I put him back on if need be?
You and he should immediately contact the child support agency of the change in circumstances. If you received public assistance, he still may be obligated to pay to retire that debt. The court, in recognizing the change in circumstances, should entertain your joint motion and proposed agreed order to reduce or eliminate the child support payment to you. If the situation changes again, you should immediately inform the child support agency and file for child support. If you believe that the future is with your child's father, you might want to consider marriage. There are many legal and financial benefits. If it does not work out, you may be eligible (depending on state law) for alimony in addition to child support.

Should I thank my child's father for paying child support?
Interesting question. On one hand, you’re thanking him for doing what he should do even without being ordered to by a court. They’re his kids too - he enjoyed making them.On the other hand, with so many non custodial parents skipping out on their obligations, it’s a good thing to have one that steps up to the plate and pays what they are supposed to. Saying thanks for not being one of “those” and helping out might be a nice thing to do. Depends a lot on your relationship with him.My children’s dad swore he’d never, ever pay child support. I took him back to court, where his high powered lawyer kept me on the stand grilling me for 3 hours as to why I thought I needed child support. They’re HIS kids too!! But you drive a brand new car. Yeah, I do. But it wasn’t a Cadillac, it was a Honda. I was a single mom with two kids, one of whom was special needs. I lived and worked in a huge city where I had no family. I also knew zip about fixing a car. I needed reliable transportation, not someone else’s castoff problem beater. “You’re wearing a suit” Yeah, I have a professional job, and he’s a GM Engineer - your point is? Anyway, there was 3 hours of that back and forth.In the end, I got a judgment for a small amount of child support, with no award of arrearage. Once I got the judgment, he paid faithfully. However, he had no further contact with his children. They are now adults, and he hasn’t seen one of them in years or talked to them. He’s always too busy to spend time with the other one, and all calls are initiated by the child.Have I thanked him? Nope. He doesn’t deserve it. Too many non custodial parents think of child support as extra income for the custodial parent. News flash - it’s not “mad money”. It helps with school books, child care costs, school clothes, lunch money, after school activities, etc, etc. That stuff adds up and is difficult to do on one income when you’re a single parent.
How can I ask my son's father for child support after 15 years?
Get a lawyer. Compile a list of all the expenses that you have had including but not limited to medical bills, medical insurance, prescriptions, clothing and sport equipment. Be reasonable, but thorough. If you are awarded child support by the family court, payment will be made by the courts or the local district attorney’s office (so you won’t have any collection problems). You should have asked for child support as soon as your son was born, but you are still entitled to the money.
