The Men's Activsm should have post this, the book from the story below it and maybe an article on how often it happens. But in any case, it's a sick Matriarchal world we live in. I don't even have children (yet) and this makes me wanna find one of these whack jobs and do things that would get me commited. Children are just tools to be used for money in the divorce game. And none of the money is accounted for. That's what is REALLY whacked. HOW DARE a father, who shares equal responsibility, ask for a (hear holy music in the back ground, men on their faces in genuflection, and a bright light) MOTHER wants to use it for a pedicure, a new "family car" (hey, corvettes are family cars, sexist male pigs!), a computer for education (that the kids are not allowed to touch), a bigger TV for Mom's room (Ricky and Oprah would be proud-as would their sponsors), and new power tools for her new boyfriend who is living at your old house.

It occurs to me I DO have a real life story to add to this. This happened to my father when he had separated from his second wife, Ginger. You are gonna love this one. It may be a long post (lol, I don't write short ones do I?)but you will get a kick out of it.
Ok, situation: Dad and Ginger split up and she gets the 3 kids. Not surprising. Dad works hard, is an electrician, and is steady and no one alleges abuse. Ginger keeps a pig sty of a house (dirty used diaper left on the floor where she changed the children - washing dishes is beneath her etc etc) and stays at home to "raise the children". While staying home she ballons to about 300 pounds eating bon bons and watching tv ... err.. watching the kids. Dad finally has enough and leaves. He moves to Oregon (Ginger and munchkins are in Arkansas) and starts up his own business. He IS paying child support. Ginger meanwhile is out one meal-ticket, slims down, and finds the first available sucker to marry her. No sh*t she picks a guy straight out of prison (she had to find a guy desperate enough to take her on). His idea of working is to go to work for construction, work a few weeks, and then "fall off a ladder" and get workers comp. Between workers comp and my dad's money, they were living ok. Now my dad meanwhile misses his kids. Ginger is, what a freaking surprise, telling the kids that dad deserted them, sends NO support, and never calls. Dad called all the time but Ginger's only question was "where is the next F*CKING CHECK and I NEED MORE!". Now John, Gingers meal-ticket (boy are HER standards low) has gone on workmen's comp 3 times after "falling off a ladder" 3 times and is pretty much black listed in the construction business. Their paydays are running low. Enter my dad. He has, in very short order, made his electrical business into a great one. He is personally netting about $120-175K a year. He misses his kids and has an idea. He calls Ginger and John and makes them an offer he is sure they will take. He will PAY for them to move to Oregon, pay for an apartment for 2 years, pay for private schooling for 2 years, pay for all the bills and groceries for 2 years. He will buy all the christmas gifts and B-day gifts for 2 years and let Ginger and John claim credit for 1/2 of them. He will EVER PAY CHILD SUPPORT on top of that, so they have spending money and are not embarressed in front of the kids. He tells Ginger and John that 2 years in enough for them to get settled and get jobs and with 2 paychecks they can have a secure future. These deadbeats READILY agree. Sooooooo its all roses for about 16 months (you can see where I am going with this can't you dear reader?). At about 16 months my dad has noticed that Ginger (who quickly RE-ballooned after suckering John to marry her) and John (in perpetual back pain but plays tennis at a club) have not gotten jobs. He is hesitant to call them as he knows how the conversation will go. He is trying to think of a way to bring up this problem when about 18-20 months into this "relationship" Ginger and John call my dad and tell him they want to speak about finances. My dad breaths a sigh of relief and he and his new wife go to see Ginger and John. Ginger and John are all smiles and love. They tell my dad that they sorely appreciate his help, and that family is important to them. Then G&J tell my dad and his bride that they have no children of their own and that they would like to try to have children for a while. My dad says thats great. SO G&J say that to avoid complications Ginger should not work while trying to get pregnant. And, since stress can affect sperm, and ya know, John has a bad back, John needs to stay healthy while they try to make a child. Net result: they want a 2 year extension on the "free sh*t from someone else plan". My father says that that is unreasonable, and that at the end of 24 months they have to pay for their own rent, 1/2 of the private schooling, and their own bills. Ginger is INCENSED. My father suggests they take it up with the deacons of the church. Ginger can pick 2 of them and my dad can pick 1. If the majority of the deacons agree to Gingers (John is whipped and wears the dress) plan, my dad will continue to pay. Ginger knows the jig is up. At the end of the 24 months my dad gets a call from the private school saying that only 1/2 of the tuition has been paid. He only paid 1/2. He is told unless the rest is paid THAT day the kids leave school. He pays the school, deducts the bill from the child support, and sends Ginger the rest. Ginger promptly calls my father: "where is the rest of the *cough cough* child support?" My dad: "I paid the school with it, get a job." The next day Ginger and John moved back to Arkansas, where they continue to live on welfare and such, while badmouthing my dad while spending his "child support". According to Ginger, my dad has NEVER paid for child support (guess the money for mommies new dress for "work" - she never GOT A JOB - just came out of the freaking sky).
Make ACCOUNTABILITY in the child support system. Jail Paternity fraud artists. Remove custody of mothers who teach hatred of fathers. Remove custody of mothers who won't work and teach their children the same "welfare-ethic". Remove custody and/or Jail mothers who deny visitation.
STOP THE ENSLAVEMENT OF FATHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Peace

Woah, what a story! Your dad sounds like a pretty good guy, and kudos to him for being able to draw the line when he needed, even if it meant not seeing the kids. So what do the kids all think of this? I imagine they see how much better it was with Dad around, and how bad things got when he wasn't. Don't they question her honesty (or lack there of?)
