[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not really clear what you are trying to say, but I'll bite. I divorced my xH because he didn't pull his weight. We have 50/50 custody and it's SO much less work for me. He has a court order to do half the school pickups/dropoffs, half the sick days, etc. Even bigger, I no longer have to cook for or clean up after a grown man. People really have no idea how much FOOD adult men need to be fed, or how their crap gets absolutely everywhere. Even if he bailed completely, he'd have to pay child support AND I still wouldn't have to cook and clean for him. I also think a LOT of men step it up when they realize their parenting will be examined in a court room by a judge. It's one thing at home behind closed doors, but another to know it could be brought out in front of complete strangers to judge. [/quote] I have a friend who broke up with her fiance when he because abusive when their daughter was an infant. Then she developed mental health issues, filed for child support, he brought CPS into it only to find out that they expected him to take custody. His response was he couldn't "because I don't have a full tie girlfriend" (it's in the CPS records, it's also in the CPS records that he only hit his former gf because she got in his face). Then he found out he'd be stuck paying child support if the child was in foster care anyway so he took her. He had some deficits (when she got sick he'd call her mother to have her take care of her) but he actually was an adequate parent as she grew up. [/quote]
