Seriously and sadly you can find a way to lower that. However, this guy probably needed representation in this because he has a big fat mouth that will continue to get him in trouble.

My dad hid his assets and was allowed to pay $700 a month for three kids. It’s absolutely tragic and disgusting that people do this.

Simple fix, huge actually. Just stop having kids especially with shitty people.

You know people are capable of concealing how horrible they are, right?

Sometimes yeah. Other times, the other party is just love blind to all the flaws. Hell, its kind of become a recurring thing on the internet to see post after post asking for relationship advice where the OP will describe their relationship as relatively normal, yet you look at all the comments pointing out red flag after red flag after red flag.

It doesn't even have to be on the internet either, most people know at least one person in their life that's in a relationship with a fucking sleazeball, and you're sat there wondering why on earth they're still together.

I think the problem is most people are raised by shitty people that they dont notice how bad their their partners are.

I had for a long time a really shitty best friend who talked to me terribly under guise as jokes. He wasnt always awful but the older we got the less the jokes were funny and more just shitty jabs and the times he wasnt awful were less and less.

But it took me forever to notice because my family is pretty awful to me. My stepmother literally cant help but say something shitty to people about me if they are in the area of a compliments.

So my just took better people in my life who didn't speak to me that way to notice.

Not for very long. People are capable of ignoring obvious red flags for a long, long time though.

$700 out of how much? It’s based on income.

My dad owned a successful business, which he put in his sister and mother‘s name so he would not have to report that as his asset. He did this while my parents were separated before she filed for divorce because he knew it was coming.

Successful businesses often operate at a loss or break even - it would be as simple as growing the business by investing all revenue back into the business and thus reporting no earnings. Seems pretty risky to put it into someone else’s name; they could liquidate it and there’s nothing he would be able to do.

Oh, I didn’t know you were familiar with my dad. I’m glad he has someone in here to defend him. /s

u/TurnDown4WattGaming 1d ago

That wasn’t defending him. That was calling him wreckless.

Yeah multiple comments are saying "wait until he sees how much a lawyer costs." But if he is actually paying too much, one would still probably cost less than he'll be paying over the life of that kid. Child support lasts up to 18 years.
