Another Adult Child of Divorce Speaks Out - Adults Suck

Great piece here: "As a child of divorce between two parents with few differences other than conflicting outlooks - the kid left in me wants to scream stop it any way you can even if it means you have to drop to your knees and plead."

Most adults just don't get it - Unless you have gone through it as a child, you cannot possibly know anything about what us "children of divorce" go through.

My comment - "Adults Suck" especially when they forget their childhood, humanity, responsibilities and selfishly place their needs above their obligations to their children.

One such example, today a client of ours - a father who has had his kids for four years finally got an order of child support. What woman waits four years for such an order. Oh and he doesn't get an order of enforcement of child support either by the Family Responsibility Office. The judge turned down what is a routine order in every child support matter in Ontario - enforcement.

This particular mother and the way the Court has let her off the hook for four years epitomizes everything bigoted about Family Court.

I'm so mad - if he instructs me, we will appeal it, and I'll do it oh so gladly for free...This sort of ruling needs to be struck down immediately. However his kids want it to end - and I understand that only too well.

He was actually telling the Judge today that his kids were begging him to stop all action in Family Court (mom was putting a lot of pressure on them, as you can all imagine.)

Why is it that mothers rarely pay child support when they lose custody?

Because - Adults Suck.
