Child support versus supporting a child’s right to be with both his parents

Every once and a while you see a story like this one about deadbeat dads and the ways the government tries to get them to pay up.

You know what you never see?

Stories about what the government does to make sure that malicious moms comply with their visitation requirements.

You know why?

Because the government does basically nothing.

A custodial mother can delay, generic cialis there diminish, viagra doctor and even deny visitation and never really be punished for it.

Not paying child support is despicable and the government should be involved in helping to collect it. But keeping a father from his children is just as deplorable.

And while back child support can eventually be collected, there’s no way for a father to get that missing time back with his kids.
