[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is probably 10% about food costs and 90% about dad trying to get out of having his child visit, either because it’s inconvenient for him or, more likely, the girlfriend doesn’t want the child there. No way I’d send my child into a situation where he’s unwanted. Does custody agreement say anything about significant others? [/quote]

Or, it may be a money issue if money is tight and he still pays full child support when the child is with him.[/quote]

How would he be paying full child support with no job? Seriously [/quote]

In my state, the parent with less custody always pays regardless of their respective incomes. I would definitely be fussing if I was unemployed and either paying child support or accruing unpaid support and my ex had gotten all the stimulus money. I don't know the story of this family. Dad could be a total deadbeat, but there are plenty of people who are legitimately suffering and not able to find employment that pays enough to help them catch up while also covering rising costs.[/quote]
