[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. I can't believe how many people don't know the meaning of 'deadbeat' dad. If this guy is paying child support, he is not a deadbeat. If his wages are being garnished rather than him voluntarily paying support, you can call him a 'deadbeat'. He is undeniably 'absent'.[/quote] Wage garnishing is pretty commonplace now, and is used in all situations so that the courts aren't dealing with nonpayment as much. My ex's wages have been garnished since day one, and he pays for childcare separately (on time, never missed a payment, never late for pick up), and we keep it that way because I hate when our kid sees money change hands.
