ACFC call to affect the Responsible Fatherhood and Healthy Families Act of 2009

Article here. Excerpt:

'The legislation focuses primarily on programs to benefit low income fathers and contains a number of positive provisions. For instance, low income fathers will be able to get a break on child support arrearages under certain circumstances. The entire bill is over 100 pages, here's a copy for those who enjoy this type of reading.

We believe the bill can go much further in addressing the issues faced by fathers in general, particularly providing relief for parents who have been separated from their children by the family courts.

There are a half dozen provisions that would improve the legislation and we need your help to get them implemented.'

If this act doesn't stipulate that the government's only vested interest in child support is to see that the bare minimum to support the child or children is met as in an intact marriage then it is just another misandric piece of crap.

The government doesn't have any business through a corrupt and corruptible judiciary dictating that orthodontic work, private school fees, trips to Epcot center etc. will be borne by the non custodial parent (read the father) under penalty of incarceration. That is governmental tyranny and it stinks.

I agree with Luek.It is difficult to see any government not wanting to interfere and control. That's the nature of government. It you accept its help then you surrender to its authority.
