Doctor forced to pay half his income as child support

Tirryb writes "News.com.au reports here that a doctor got divorced, and due to the stress gave up his high paid job to take a part-time much lower stress position.

However the Child Support Agency decided that he had earning 'potential' of at least twice what his new job paid, and he's got slugged with child support payments at that level - equivalent to half his current income.

The moral of the story is simple - we divorce, and we're slaves. Work harder or go to jail, what a choice."
