It never ceases to amaze me how many women insist on beating down a man who "refuses" to pay his "child support." One always hears about the financial woes of a custodial parent (CP) (usually the mother), as well as how many "sacrifices" must be made by the CP when those "deadbeats" don't pay up.

For decades, child support has been wrought with lies and misinformation as neo-nazi radical feminists groups incessantly beat upon the elusive albeit mythological "deadbeat dad." It is a well known fact as demonstrated in Stephen Baskerville's latest book, "Taken Into Custody" that there never existed the "deadbeat dad" to such levels as has been falsely proclaimed for decades. Furthermore, it's a statistical fact that more non-custodial (NC) moms default on their child support payments to Fathers, than do the NC Fathers to the custodial mothers.

Being a "victim" of the child support scam myself, I became so full of indignation that I started The Ohio Council For Fathers Rights. It's time for those who are guilty of spreading the child support misinformation to stop telling the lies and start telling the truth.
We Fathers are more than "Credit Cards" to our children and have more important things to offer our children than money. Most importantly, we have ourselves to offer as "Dads" to our kids. The FACT is that in most cases, the amount of the child support "AWARD" paid from the Father to the mother is way in excess of what it costs to raise the child. The truth is that many times the "child support" actually supports the custodial parents lifestyle and/or drug or alcohol addiction. In extreme cases, none of the "child support" dollars is spent on the children. I know of one case in particular where the custodial mom spent her monthly child support payments on her alcohol addiction while her child had no bed and slept on the floor!

Furthermore, the states of the nation are making BILLIONS of dollars in profits through Title IV and Federal Incentive matches on child support collections. If you are not familiar with TANF, Title IV, and federal incentives, you would be wise to not pass judgment on me as your working factual knowledge of the true "child support machinery" is obviously very limited.
For instance in 2003 (maybe 2004) alone, the state of Ohio profited $223 million dollars off of all child support dollars collected! That's not what Ohio collected in "child support" payments that year, that's the amount they made in profits off of the billions they collected.
