If a mother takes off on a father and leaves him with the kids, does she have to pay child support?

yes she does. The law only specifies that the non-costodial parent has to pay.

I wonder if women are less likely to pay then men? Maybe men are less likely to file for child support if that's the case? questions....questions...questions...

Well I don't know the average amount the non-custodial parent pays if they are male vs female or the % of paying vs non-paying non-custodial spouses by gender.

I suspect that men pay more than women simply because the child support formula calculates the amount based upon the income of the non-custodial parent. Since in general men get paid more than women, they will also in general pay more than women.

It split of single parent households by gender is a follows: http://www.singlefathers.org/

More than 12 million single parents currently exist in the US: 86% are single mothers, and 14% are single fathers. The number of single parents has increased 38% in the last decade

(she NEEDS a detached home with a yard so that the children have somewhere to play, you can't keep 'em locked inside a 10th floor condo!).

Licensing agencies have no problems about home providers living in highrise buildings. As long as the careprovider takes them out...usually to a park or a long walk.

Why does it have to be a DETACHED house btw??? Rowhouses or semi-detached homes have their own yards, right? I know careproviders with government agencies operating from such types of houses, so it can't be a regulation.

Talk about "nit picking" sheesh!

Sure, she can send the kids out to play on a postage stamp -- the kids can run in really tight circles LOL. Who cares. :blink:

She probably (as a loooooong term tenant) pays less rent for her "detached" home than she would for a studio apartment the way the rental markets gone these days.

Friends of mine pay $850 for their house (OMG a detached home!). Others on the same street, in the same type of house pay $1100+. Why is their rent so low -- loooooong term tenants.

...jealous much?

And the following might just explain why there are so many children without father's in their lives ...

85% of youths in prison are from fatherless homes!

71% of high school dropouts are from fatherless homes!

90% of homeless and runaway children and youths are from fatherless homes!

When are they going to get it, kids need dads in their lives. The judicial system is keeping dads out of kids lives because it keeps the lawyers and judges in business. As the kids get older and start breaking the law and rebelling - they supplement the justice system.

It is not about the kids, it is about gimme the money and shove the guy out the door but watch out when things go wrong then dad gets the blame for not being around.

Children need both of their parents in their lives. A father is just as important in the life of a child than is a mother. Listen to Randall Moore’s commentary on the dilemas fathers face in divorce situations in Canada. More and more media people are beginning to understand how disastrous the situation is and are beginning to speak up. Good work Randall! : http://www.fathers-4-justice.ca/20060203-R...andallMoore.mp3

How does a judge who “specializes” in “civic and commercial law”, and at that “particularly shareholder disputes” become a FAMILY COURT JUDGE ?...and then ENDANGERS the lives of children!: http://www.fathers-4-justice.ca/ecasgrain.html

I so agree.

Kids need their dad (or a very good step-dad).
