You leave, You lose

Even though the new site is up, I haven't reorganize this one yet, but I've decided to keep this site up so that I can post here stuff that doesn't 'fit' with the other site. I talked on the phone with a friend last night whose daughter is dating a man who has a child from a former relationship. She was telling me that he has 50% custody of his son, and still pays $450 a month in child support.

Their father starts the blackmail again

Well, here we go. I was a bit short on the bills this month, so I called their father's mother to ask her if she can get hold of him to tell him I need money.

Getting Ready To Say GoodBye

This is going to be a hard post for me to write. Once I finish the new site, this one is going to have a whole new look, and most of these 'deadbeat dad' type posts are going to be moved to the bottom probably many pages back in this blog. I have come to the realization that this blog is supposed to be about 'financial help for single moms' and it's become mostly about deadbeat dads, military

Financial Help For Single Moms's- Thoughts on divorce

I pulled some information from a discussion board on David Iguanzo's "Childrens Rights" Facebook group, and I thought I would post them here along with some added thoughts of my own. My additions will be in bold italics...There's quite a bit of chatter about 'equal parenting, and 'father's rights' and even 'children's rights' with respect to 'equal parenting.'

Financial Help For Single Mom's- Financial Assistance and it's Downfalls

When I started this blog, it was dedicated to providing financial help and assistance for single mom's.

An Open Letter To The Mother Of My Deadbeat Dad

I've had some conversations with the sperm donors mother over the past two days, and what it comes down to is this. She talks bad about my family, and how they treat me, but when I bring up how HER family treated me and my kids, I get "I'm not going to talk about it."She talks about how my ex and I were always fighting and how it wasn't good for the baby to see, but when I bring up the question,
