Child Support
Currently in a situation where the baby's Dad is making life difficult and refusing to pay support. Anyone had any dealings like this with the CMS? I know this is a predominantly male forum and it would be useful to have any positive or negative feedback as to how it went...

I agree in principle, i;d want to support a child i had no mater what. but could be other reasons such as withholding untill given access etc etc

If he's a coward that won't stand up to raise his off spring then CSA his **** and take him for every penny that child deserves
If it takes a third party an inbatweener maybe to talk things through with him that might work and less tit for tat
In all of this please remember it's the child that matters not your feelings towards him or his towards you
don't stop the father seeing his child even if it means going through a third party or a centre thingy if you don't trust him or if he's not capable enough
If he's skint and no cash please remember he can still give plenty of love and attention and time and you can get some respite aswell

haha, no i'm not preventing anything. I'm the one trying to get him to have something to do with it but he has refused and wishes i'd go away.
Unfortunately the dealings i have had with the CMS have been bad and they can't seem to manage the most basic of tasks and reading other cases where the Mother chases the absent parent for YEARS and still gets nowhere, i'm reluctant to bother.

Give your energy and time to your child
just treat him as a sperm donor
as these precious times never come back which you will spend with your child as he/she grows up both of you will grow stronger and more mature as time goes on positive vibes are a must
I'm sure you'll be fine

I hear you mate.I have been through it & it's about the hardest thing you can do to remain objective when you're in emotional hell but ultimately it's about the kids.The adults have to shoulder the burden.The kids didn't do anything.

There's a hell of a lot of men making children and then running away from responsibility. My ex partner doesn't have to see the child but I do feel he should shoulder some of the financial responsibility. The CSA should be able to enforce.

what makes me laugh about them is when
the woman leaves takes the kids goes on benefits ( which the bloke has paid for in taxs0 then proceedes to rim him over for 1/2 the house etc, rely clever that all they are actually doing is ******* the kids for inheritance, because she is on benefits they have to spend thier half before they can claim anything,
BUT THAT DONT MATTER COS AS FAR AS ALL THIER MATES ARE CONCERENED SHE RIMMED HUBBY OVER sad sad thing scorned women

Madscoob- that's an incredibly generalised statement and your experience (as it sounds) is certainly not everyone's.
The situation I'm in is that he doesn't want anything to do with the child and certainly doesn't want to pay for it. According to you that's sad scorned women?!

One might question the judgement of women who have children with men like that.
I'm just surprised that these women have thought it a bloody good idea to be impregnated by the sort of bloke who runs off and doesn't want to see and/or support his own offspring.

So the general reply seems to be in keeping with his- why should we pay...
Someone questioned a woman's judgement...again in my case, he has another child and is very much a part of its life. I guess it wasn't unreasonable to expect him to behave in the same manner for his other.

YOU NEED THE JEREMY KYLE SHOW
how can anybody on here judge anyone when no one knows the truth??
You could have been a one night stand or a side piece so he might want a DNA test to prove? How do we know "WAT GO ON IN"
CSA waste of time and gets used as a weapon by women and results in men leaving there jobs so the benefits can pay the benefits from what I've seen
I feel sorry for the child you should have taken protection no excuses if you can't afford you shouldn't have gone 9:15 to be honest
Wish half the people would appreciate the gift of life the first words the first steps the first smile of a child
You really don't know how lucky you are to have a healthy child appreciate it and do what you got to do
BUT NO LETS SEE WHAT THE BABOONS OF SN HAVE TO SAY
Not a bad weekender made my week

My comment was not specifically at you. But you made the more general comment that many men have children and then run away and don't pay.
My point is that most men who would behave like that can be spotted a mile away. You don't go to bed a decent person with a moral compass and suddenly wake up the next morning a selfish scumbag.
So there maybe loads of blokes who behave like that but on most occasions the women are equally to blame for being so stupid as to have children with men like that.

Back in the day 2000 I had to pay £110 per week for one child.The csa allowed me £7.00 to run a car and cover my running costs to get to work .My ex would ask for a review every 6 weeks.When my new girlfriend moved in they asked for her pay packets so they could increase payments.I then started jumping from job to job and got my payments down to a more manageable £44 per week.I was then able to give my daughter pocket money and take her out.
The CSA were complete arseholes !!

Fortunately, I am not in this situation. I have two girls but there is only me.
I'd hate to be in the position of having a failed relationship and then being hounded by a poorly run government department for money. Not that I wouldn't pay but I'd be concerned how that money was being used.
My GF has one child and has nothing to do with the father and gave up trying to get money as he didn't work or was quite low paid. I think at some point if you weren't getting anywhere I'd probably stop wasting my time trying to get money and just make do with what you have.
I also think Ding has a point. My GF appears quite a sensible person but the father sounds a bit of a bell end. I find it inexplicable how she managed to choose so poorly. I guess it's a little of too young or not experienced enough in judgement to decide who to have children with. Arguably an indication that there is blame on both side. However, that hardly helps after the deed is done.
Personally, just get on with the rest of your life and put the effort into the child's happiness. You'll just get stressed and peed off so why waste the energy?

I can assure you i am not a liar.
I rang them up and told them she had stopped working,they asked when ?
I said as soon as their letter arrived.
This was back in 2000/2001 perhaps things have changed.
I found a company in Cradley Heath who called themselves CSA consultants who worked for the husbands.All i can say is it was money well spent.
I made sure my daughter didnt go without but her mother wasnt very happy. :thumb

The fathers new partners earnings are not taken into account I know as I've been the (not so) absent parent and have been dealing with the CSA since 2003! My then new partners (now wife) earnings have NEVER been taken into account! The system used to calculate CS was revamped early '00s, I was on the "new" system.
