Is this fair or how it should be ..?

I live with my dad and not my mom. I lived with her when I was younger but she put me through a lot of shi* a little girl shouldnt bee put through. Anyways, she lives in a different state now and im with my dad. She used to help my dad out like buy me new clothes and stuff so that he didnt have to do EVERYTHING by himself. But now she does nothing and my dad asked her if she could pay Child Support and she said she wasnt paying anything or sending me anything bc I don’t ever visit her so im “not her responsibility”. I told her im still her daughter and need her support either way. I thought she would understand the who Child Support thing bc she collects child support from my half sister and half brothers dads and they never see their kids either … Shes being unfair and kinda hypocritical. :\

Is this fair or how it should be? Or should she still have to pay money and hellp support me?

Parents suck. :\

  • at least my mom doesss.
Answer #1

I’ve been through similar, it aint far how parets can be!

Answer #2

Then, Sweetheart, you are better off without her. You seem to have a good head on your shoulders and (from what little I’ve read about him) your dad seems to care a great deal about you and for you.

She doesn’t deserve you. If she were my mother, I wouldn’t spare her another thought, no matter how painful it may be. If she’s neglectful in her obligations, it’s by choice, and if she’s choosing to not be around and not provide, then you don’t need her. <3 (my heart hurts for you- I’m dealing with my poor son’s deadbeat dad right now… too many parents ignore their precious blessings and it’s not right or fair…)

Answer #3

Legally, she birthed you, she HAS to pay for you. Have your dad take her to court. She can make this ugly, or she can help out willingly as is her God-given (and state-mandated) responsibility. If she chooses not to pay, the judge will court-order her to either do so, or relinquish all parental rights/responsibilities. THEN if after payment is court-ordered, she still denies you your necessary payment, her wages get garnished and she can wind up in jail. Tell her all of this nastiness can be avoided if she would contribute. Good luck. :)

Answer #4

But if she had the choice to pay or “relinquish all parental rights/responsibilities” then thats probably what she would do .. relinquish all parental rights/responsibilities.

Answer #5

maybe you should tell her how hypocritical she’s being. I think she should pay child support especially when she’s collecting it from her other childrens fathers. it’s just not right.

she should at least give a better reason beccause that’s just messed up
