They won't do 50/50 because they lose that title IV-D funding

Title IV-D is legalized extortion

I’m curious how this would be considering I’m the primary parent who homeschools our 2 girls. I’ve been a stay-at-home since my first daughter was born. They never been in public school. I do all the homeschooling. They are now 16 and 14. I’m just asking these questions because my husband told me today that he wants a divorce. Everything, except the house utilities, is under his name. I love my girls more than anything and this has me scared and sad. Thank you.

What happens if the mother had to move to another state and the father blocks the mother and the child stop answering the calls and texts of the mother. What options does the mother have?

The court finds its the best interest of the child.....the irony in this statement is so fucking hilarious it almost made me fall out of my seat....

What if the mother denies the child to see or speak to the father with no grounds for it. HB803 BILL equal parenting. It has been presented to the Texas legislation. All fathers need to act and contact our legislation to get them to sign this bill. But I encourage all parents on this channel to read that bill. Thanks in advance and God bless and God bless our children and may God take control over the people that don't see it fit that the child deserves both parents equally. The children have a Bill of Rights and are covered under the Constitution as an American citizen and the mother and the system are infringing on the child's rights as an American citizen because it does apply to them as well we need to start enforcing this in order to better our children and I have both parents. The legal system and these legal people don't have the best interests of the child in mine neither does the child support agency read do your research and I can give my email if any parents want to trade or get any knowledge from one another. Thanks again in advance and God bless and God bless America and our children and may God help these people on this YouTube channel for giving MK ultra information to us

All a women has to do is say the kids are sick and cannot see the father this week. They are sick next week too. The court could care less. If your a man, expect to lose your kids 65 percent of the time. If you cannot accept this fact, don't have children. 4 million children are alienated from the fathers in the USA today.
