Today's society is bringing many children without the support of the father and/or the mother. Would you agree with me if I say there's more single mothers than single fathers?
Well, it never crossed my mind before until today. Someone I know was summoned to the Family Court where child support charges were settled between the parents of a child. I know many of us women condemn men for neglecting their responsibilities. Some of us, blind with resentment, often ignore the plea of the father. Not all fathers want to be a part of the child's life. But what about those who do want to be included? Why treat them bad? Why do we use the child to 'get back' at the father? Why can't we settle matters amongst ourselves?
That same person who went to court today was willing to contribute much more in the child's life but the legal guardian made things worse. The mother admitted in other words, that she is not responsible for the child. The legal guardian wants child support because things are tough. The father offered to lessen the burden but out of bitterness (?), stupidity and greed, the child's keeper refused and stubbornly filed a case against the father to humiliate him.
Cutting off your nose just to spite your face...how far will you go?
