Does anyone know how to make Child Support Enforcement do their job?

Stop having children with dead beats and then you wouldn't have to worry about child support enforcement doing their job!

#1.2 Anonymous on 04/13/11 at 05:49 PM

Nope!! They are FOR the dead beat parent and AGAINST the custodial parent!! Believe me, they were against ME. They were hostile. Idiots.

You must be a man, because if you are a woman, then Child Support Enforcement will roll out the red carpet for you. They don't give a rat's a$$ about the father! I know personally of guys who were paying on time every month, and were continually harassed by CSE, up to point of having to go to court to show the judge their proof of payments, because CSE insisted they were behind when they weren't. The judge ruled against CSE, but it still cost these guys a lot of money in legal fees and court costs to prove they'd been paying all along.

Is that the BPD assistant cheif's kid at the top of the list???

#2.1 Anonymous on 04/13/11 at 05:15 PM

Yeah, he really does make the family proud. Go ahead and look back though, this is far from the first time he's been locked up.

As much as all parent's would like too, we can not stop our grown children from doing certain things.

#4 H B on 04/13/11 at 05:04 PM

Looks like close to a tie game. Out of towners and locals on the arrest list. Why dont the out of towners do their evil deeds at home and leave us alone?

How many times is Chris going to be arrested? Damn what is wrong with these kids. Im sure the parents must be extreemly embarrassed. Think they all need an a$$ whooping.

which chris are you talking about?

#7 anonymus on 04/15/11 at 07:37 AM

Ok. Let me start by saying I work for CSS and of course both parties the mother and father would be complaining because you see, we never do enough. We collect $5,000 for the mother and she wants $10,000. If the father isn't paying then he is fussing because we are taking enforcement actions against him so no matter which way we go we are still wrong. Also, why is it that you guys think that it is personal to us and we are on anyone's side. Its not personal. We are not on either side. We are simply here to do a job to support our family. We can only do what the law allows us to do. Maybe you should educate yourself on what exactly it is we can and cannot do for you. We can't run chase the man down and steal his money out of his wallet and give it to you. And we can't turn him into a kind loving father. You should have known who he was and what he was going to be like before you laid down and had children with him. Quit blaming us for your poor lack of judgement. And dads, quit whining to us about what a sorry mother she is. You also should have figured that out before you laid down and had a child with her. Everyone wants to blame CSS when it fact it was your poor lack of judgement that has you in this situation to begin with. Now accept you made a mistake and move on. Try to fix what is wrong but quit blaming CSS. We are limited in what we can do. And really, its not personal to us. Its our job.

Poor lack of judgment? My ex has paid $675 in child support in the last ELEVEN years. I know that CSS cannot make her pay or become a kind loving mother.... but you CAN lock her sorry ASS up! So locate and serve her! Do your F'n job!

#8 Silent Bob on 04/18/11 at 01:14 PM

I don't blame CSS at all. Where in our constitution do it say the government should collect child support payments? A dead beat man or woman should be taken out in the woods somewhere and have the error of their ways explained to them in simple terms. It is the not the governments job to run your life for you. We have made it too easy for women to go and have kids by three, four or more men knowing the CSS will collect the payments for her. Men that go out and have kids by several women are stupid. CSS has not helped but keep this cycle going and even get worse.

Article III Section Two Deals with the courts and their role. Supreme and inferior courts. Child Support Services (recovery) are enforcing a court order. Although I do like your idea too.

That's right 7.1. CS sent my ex to court 2 times in a row and he did not get sent to jail or made to pay back either time! I had meticulously (sp?) kept up with what he was paying and not paying, and how much he owed. I went to CS office and showed them waht my totals, they said I was lying!They were mean and intimidating to me. THis was in Thomaston. I give up then and he never paid and they never did a thing about it. A state dept that needs to be gotten rid of, another waste of tax payer dollars.
And #7... NO, you do NOT do enough!! I didn't complain to want 'more' I just complained because I didn't get what I was suppose to have in the first place.
If it's not personal to you and the employees of CS, then WHY were they FOR the dead beat and AGAINST me! Sounds mighty personal to me!
I DID educate myself on what it was you were suppose to do and not do for me, and you did not do it.
Yes I admit I made a bad choice in a father/husband, and I'm not blaming CS for that, but that does not excuse the CS dept for doing their job! That's what this dept was started for anyway.
It is NOT because of my bad judgement that the CS did NOT do their job in my case. If it wasnt' for these 'bad' judgements, you wouldn't have a job.
I would ask you to do the same, learn from your mistake, but it was NOT a mistake. You did not own up to you were wrong in my case.
