    Poxy matinence payments vent

    o.k i was thinking there must be loads of ppl out there ment to be receiving poxy amounts but arnt well myn is 90 cents a day give or take a few cents its certainly NOT $1 dollar a day i think about 27 a month and i dont receive it i have not had payment for 4.5 years how about you ? I remember my mom never receiving money from dad she did it so tough we did it tough no shoes for shool and no jumpers or winter blankets for our bed. Some times no food too. I dont even want the stupid money but if i dont try to claim it i cant get paid.Stupid i wish the twit would.... i shouldn't say to be honest what i really think its not very Christian of me BTW no contact since 8 weeks old and my son is 4.5 years old.`
    i don't want contact or anything i dont even want him to have to pay but i get no choice, i feel for the women who have different circumstances from myn

    My sister is entitles to $10 fortnight or someting that cheap from the father of her son and she doesn't even get that, he sees his son twice year maybe. My sister doesn't even bother going after the money she just decided he gets no say in how they run their life.
    Considering he moved back with his mum and smokes like a chimney you'd think he could put some money towards his son.

    My dad was ordered to pay $20 a week when he and my mum split when I was 2 years old. He continued to pay $20 a week until I was 18!!! He was too mean to even increase it with inflation

    the amount of child support is dependent on the income of the paying parent - if you believe he is telling furphy's about how much he earns and should be paying more, let CSA know - otherwise, for someone on a very low income (ie, c'link payments) it's normal to only be $27 a month.

    i know it seems harsh, but they are getting nothing from the govt (ftb etc) for the child, so that comes out of their income - and they still have to have enough to live on...

    what gets me is the fact i have to claim for it when i dont even want too. If i dont try to get it, i dont get paid. Its clear the relation ship between me and him and child and him ended then with no further contact why should I have to try to claim maintenance when i just want nothing to do with him.
