[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not in this situation but I've had discussions with men who are. My sense is  they often feel justified because - angry at mom
think the mom keeps them from their kids or poisons their kids against them
don't believe the expenses are necessary or real
grossly underestimate how much a child costs
thinks child support should cover everything so no indicidentals needed
feel like they can't afford to pay what is due and support themselves.[/quote]

I don't understand how this is a thing in the world we live in? There are apps and screenshots. You can take a photo of a bill from the dentist and send it to dad then and there. I'm not asking them to pay a random estimate, I'm curious why when the dentist's bill is $400, dad is MIA. It's your kid, too. You also can make the payment or feel free to take him to the dentist. But if you chose to allow mom to do all the emotional labor of scheduling and taking the kid, and then not chip in, I don't understand it. [/quote]
