[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The "father's rights" folks are always quick to spew their garbage.[/quote]

Funny, the mothers are only important in kids lives are always quick to spew their garbage disparaging the importance of kids having two parents, not just one and a child support check.[/quote]

50/50 is presumed in most areas (not all I think, but most). If a dad wants it, he will get it (barring extreme circumstances). CS is not automatic, but based on the parents' incomes.[/quote]

In some areas not all and often it’s a fight. [/quote]

Everyone I know who is divorced has 50/50, except a few cases where the other parent did not want to parent 50% and chose a lesser percentage.[/quote]

hahahah!

How many men are actually doing that? Men don't do half the work.  (Well, maybe there's a FEW. But only a few.)[/quote]

My husband does half the work.  Just because you had a kid with a dud does not mean all men are duds.  Usually the men who are good fathers are still married.[/quote]

Exactly my point. Men who want to get divorced also typically don't want to do the difficult work of parenting.

[b]Most men don't get the opportunity because their ex's want full custody for the child support.[/b]  Mine would have been 1005 capable of taking care of his or our kids.  I don't worry one bit if something happens to me.[/quote]

This is not true. The vast majority of men get 50/50 when they ask for it. You have to be a really horrible father and your horribleness has to be well-documented for you to be denied 50/50. But women often get full custody because their exes don't ask for custody.
