The Captain on Alimony

This turned out a little better than I thought it would:

I agree with child support. As men and as fathers we are responsible for our kids, even when our ex's and wives are not. That's just the way it is.

But what happens when the courts support and enable wives that don't do their share as they do now?

In this day and age, there is only one fair solution in this egalitarian society: the house gets sold, the RRSP's are split up and everything else gets divided 50/50. If the woman cannot support the kids, the father should get custody. The fix is simple and fair...which is why most women wouldn't go for it. Women are socialists and fascists by nature - and their influence on modern law reflects that.

The problem with child support is when it becomes alimony in disguise. Kids are no where near as expensive as people make them out to be, unless you choose to make them expensive.

Cappy is dead wrong and Stefan is 100% right. You quit your job don't expect a paycheck. And yes, I have personal experience paying alimony. Fortunately for me my ex got pregnant a few months after divorce and got the sucker to marry her. My alimony payments went from $2250/mo to zero. Talk about a cause for celebration. To any "ladies" who wonder where the good men are, go f yourself, I'm not risking more alimony.

There is no need for child support, if there is a divorce paternity test the children and give the father the children that are his. The only exception would be adoption, if a man adopts a child and there is a divorce he should get children that are his as well as any he adopted. Problem solved.

captain, I wanted to let you know that a greater problem are the old people. Who dont want to die, and exploit us. I believe these old people exploit women, and women in their turn beg them to exploit us.

Women count only as a large number of votes, otherwise they are weak. Lets focus instead on old people who don't want to die.

THE PROBLEM IS "50/50-TIME SHARING" IS NOT CHILD SUPPORT, IT IS ALIMONY IN DISGUISE! My husband pays 100% medical for his 3 kids (2 biological, but he is forced to pay for the other too), she got everything including alimony after 4 yr 10 month marriage. She chose to stay home and spend his money, so when she left she took everything of monetary value, and then asked for the rest in the divorce, and she got it. She moved to another county to her parents home and told my husband she wanted time to work things out, he agreed, not realizing she was just waiting out the 6 months so she could file in the county her parents lived in. Now his kids are over an hour away from where they were born and raised, he has 50% time, he pays $1300 a mo child support because she still chooses to date instead of trying to make a life for herself and the kids.....why should she? 7 years later my husband pays for the kids health care, their food and clothes at her home, their food and clothes at our home, and of course anything else they need since their mother lives in a one bedroom trailer with his 3 kids WHICH SHE LIVES IN FOR FREE COURTESY OF HER MOM AND DAD, and she spends my husbands child support on going out with the latest boyfriends, or buying the latest boyfriend expensive smart phones, stereos, speakers, wheels and tires.....and then demands the tax money too.....All while my husband works as much overtime as he can get so we can have food for the kids and buy fuel to transport the kids back and forth to their mother.
My husband does nothing but work, to pay his child support, keep a roof over our heads, and keep the kids taken care of......THE TRUTH IS 50/50 custody is NOTHING MORE than a way to make the better, harder working parent PAY ALIMONY THAT IS "DISGUISED AS CHILD SUPPORT", BECAUSE IF YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT CHILD SUPPORT, THEN YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR KIDS!
My husband was married less than 5 years, he's being forced to pay for a non biological child because he found out too late,6 months alimony, and now IN THE NAME OF CHILD SUPPORT he has to spend the kids childhood giving their mother a check so that his hard work is at her house too.
MEN SHOULD NOT BE SLAVES FOR HAVING A CHILD....WOMEN SHOULD NOT BE GETTING PAID FOR HAVING A KID....50/50 SHOULD MEAN BEING PARENTS TO THE KIDS, NOT THE FATHER SUPPORTING THE MOTHER. MY HUSBAND CHOSE TO WORK NIGHTS AND CRAZY HARD HOURS TO GET A BETTER LIVING WAGE...NOW IN THE SO-CALLED CHILD SUPPORT, HE HAS TO GIVE HIS EX A BETTER LIFE TOO....WE ALL KNOW 3 HEALTHY KIDS IN SMALL TOWN USA DO NOT COST $1300 MONTH + HEALTH CARE COSTS, IF THEY DID, NO ONE WOULD HAVE MORE THAN ONE KID! ALSO, WHY IS ONE PARENT EXPECTED TO BETTER THE LIFE OF THE OTHER PARENT UNTIL THE LAST KIDS IS OLD ENOUGH TO NO LONGER RECEIVE CHILD SUPPORT? WHY SHOULD ONE PARENT WORK DAY AND NIGHT SO THE OTHER PARENT CAN LIVE BETTER OFF OF THEIR PAYCHECK? 5 YRS OF MARRIAGE, FORCED TO MARRY BECAUSE SHE SAID IT WAS HIS, HE WAS TOO GOOD A GUY TO QUESTION HER, NOW HE KNOWS THE KID ISN'T HIS BUT THE LAW REQUIRES HIM TO PAY FOR IT UNTIL THE KID IS 18....HOW IS THIS LEGAL? SERIOUSLY, HOW IS 20 YRS OF ALIMONY FOR 5 YEARS OF MARRIAGE LEGAL JUST BECAUSE "THEY CALL IT ALIMONY...OOPS, I MEAN THEY CALL IT CHILD SUPPORT"???? THIS NEEDS TO BE CHANGED, 50/50 SHOULD MEAN JUST WHAT IT SAY'S..50/50!

LET ME PUT THIS INTO PERSPECTIVE.. MY HUSBAND GETS 100% OF THE COSTS OF RAISING THE KIDS FOR NOT ONLY OUR HOME, BUT ALSO HER HOME, HE GETS THE KIDS ON ALL OF THEIR DAYS OUT OF SCHOOL, HOLIDAYS, SUMMER VAC,SPRING BREAK, AND EVERY OTHER WEEKEND 24/7 3 MEALS + SNACK'S, WHILE SHE GETS THEM UP FOR SCHOOL, FEEDS THEM SUPPER, AND HAS THEM EVERY OTHER WEEKEND ABOUT 8 MO'S OUT OF THE YEAR IF YOU CONSIDER THE TIME THEY ARE WITH US. -MEANING, THEIR MOTHER ONLY HAS THEM A SMALL FRACTION OF HER "50%" WHILE THE SCHOOL HAS THEM MOST OF HER 50%! AND, WE PAY HER CHILD SUPPORT! OF COURSE WE HAD TO FIGHT FOR 2 YEARS JUST TO SEE THE KIDS THIS MUCH!!
