Letters: State can hold delinquent moms accountable, too

Letter here.

'Slackers are not only the fathers in divorce cases. When the courts have awarded the father placement of the kids of a relationship, they receive little help from the local child support system.

Kids are the most important part of this equation, and they should have their rights treated adequately. That is not the only abuse that some males are receiving from the state's child support system.

Some of the delinquent parties are women who run businesses in which they hide most of their income so they don't have to fund their children through child support payments.

I feel that the state should look into the treatment of fathers who have been raising their children, not receiving support and not given a fair deal.

I feel that there should be a website, if there is a problem that can be addressed and can be brought out, so each parent and, most importantly, the children can be treated fairly.
