- 0:00Speaker 1: It is the deal.
- 0:01Speaker 2: He will show your twenty twenty six edition if you
- 0:03Speaker 2: were going to be in Cincinnati or Liberty.
- 0:06Speaker 1: Of course I'll be there this Friday and Saturday. Come
- 0:08Speaker 1: to check me out.
- 0:09Speaker 2: So the question we're asking a woman, she turns over
- 0:13Speaker 2: a custody to her to the father, she moves out
- 0:16Speaker 2: of the country, and now he wants her to pay
- 0:18Speaker 2: Chelse for Take a listen.
- 0:20Speaker 3: He told me that now that he is caring for
- 0:23Speaker 3: the boys full time while I prepare to move, he
- 0:26Speaker 3: obviously stops the child maintenance payments to me, which is
- 0:28Speaker 3: what we had agreed. I didn't want to be in
- 0:30Speaker 3: receipt of anything because I don't have the children, and
- 0:32Speaker 3: that money was court ordered at the time of our
- 0:35Speaker 3: divorce for our boys activities, So their extra curricle activities,
- 0:39Speaker 3: their breakfast, club, after school club, tutoring, athletics, football, you
- 0:42Speaker 3: name it, they do it.
- 0:43Speaker 4: And that's what that money was fored.
- 0:44Speaker 3: So it's not a substantial amount, but it was in
- 0:46Speaker 3: line with his salary at the time, and it was
- 0:47Speaker 3: enough to cover those outgoings. So obviously, as they are
- 0:50Speaker 3: no longer in my full time care, that money was
- 0:53Speaker 3: to stop. Absolutely, no questions asked. He took the car
- 0:56Speaker 3: that he had previously got for me away. Again, That's
- 0:59Speaker 3: totally fine. I'm leave in the country. I don't you
- 1:01Speaker 3: don't owe me anything like that. That car was to
- 1:04Speaker 3: make taking the kids from A to B easier. Totally fine.
- 1:06Speaker 3: Here's a bit that through me. He is saying that
- 1:09Speaker 3: I need to pay him child support, he said, and
- 1:11Speaker 3: I was like, sorry, what exactly do you mean? He
- 1:14Speaker 3: literally repeated himself and said that now that he has
- 1:17Speaker 3: the boys, I have to pay him child support. And
- 1:20Speaker 3: you know what it's like when you're starting a business.
- 1:21Speaker 3: It's not like I have the financial securities or the
- 1:25Speaker 3: financial pulling.
- 1:26Speaker 4: Power as I did while I was an EA.
- 1:28Speaker 3: So I'm like, where exactly do you think I'm going
- 1:30Speaker 3: to get money from to pay you?
- 1:31Speaker 4: Lo and behold.
- 1:32Speaker 3: I received an email this week from a mediation service
- 1:35Speaker 3: saying that he has instructed them to start mediation with me.
- 1:39Speaker 3: I would have to cover all of my casks, and
- 1:40Speaker 3: they were inviting me to a meeting with them. I
- 1:42Speaker 3: declined it because I'm not mediating over me paying you
- 1:46Speaker 3: child Patint, can you explain to me, Like the men
- 1:49Speaker 3: of this generation, I have not heard anything like this
- 1:52Speaker 3: before men come get money off women.
- 1:55Speaker 2: Now, the point she was she thought that not giving
- 1:59Speaker 2: having to him, not having him pay her money was
- 2:02Speaker 2: a net gain for him. But he wants is an
- 2:05Speaker 2: actual net game.
- 2:07Speaker 5: We want.
- 2:10Speaker 1: His money.
- 2:11Speaker 6: It's funny. I mean, I'm not asking him to pay
- 2:14Speaker 6: me anymore, so he should be all right, what are
- 2:17Speaker 6: you talking about?
- 2:17Speaker 2: No, he got the kids, which is a which is
- 2:20Speaker 2: I can see a lot of females having that logic.
- 2:22Speaker 2: I can see a lot of women having that logic.
- 2:24Speaker 2: I'm not asking you for anything, don't ask me for nothing.
- 2:26Speaker 7: But I can see that she stepped on her foot
- 2:29Speaker 7: when she listed, well, he used to pay child support
- 2:31Speaker 7: because she paid for these.
- 2:32Speaker 6: Activities for the kids, and this activity for the ki
- 2:34Speaker 6: and this for the kids.
- 2:35Speaker 8: Now he has to pay for that.
- 2:36Speaker 1: So hell, what's she moving to Europe?
- 2:40Speaker 9: What we're gonna say, Well, I was going to say
- 2:45Speaker 9: it was court ordered. So apparently they went to court
- 2:48Speaker 9: and the judge is the one who said he needed
- 2:50Speaker 9: to pay for all this because he was making more
- 2:53Speaker 9: money than her. She's self employed, and so when she
- 2:56Speaker 9: turned the kids over. I guess her point was she's
- 3:00Speaker 9: doesn't make as much money as he does, so I
- 3:03Speaker 9: do agree. Well, first of all, I don't know why
- 3:05Speaker 9: you would not want to do your best to help
- 3:07Speaker 9: take care of children that you are responsible for r
- 3:10Speaker 9: into this world. Now, whether it's at the level of
- 3:12Speaker 9: what he's saying or not, I don't know money than
- 3:16Speaker 9: she does, so I definitely think there should be some
- 3:19Speaker 9: kind of sliding scale. She should not be absolved of
- 3:22Speaker 9: all of her responsibilities because she's still a parent, but
- 3:24Speaker 9: whatever she can, she should correct.
- 3:27Speaker 2: There's something that I have in all of these years
- 3:30Speaker 2: of working with you, I never thought I would hear
- 3:33Speaker 2: myself say that is so reasonable.
- 3:36Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. Believe I'm always reasonable.
- 3:42Speaker 8: You may not like it.
- 3:44Speaker 2: That was so reasonable, there was unassailable. So here's a
- 3:48Speaker 2: little bit of the idea.
- 3:49Speaker 3: He told me that now that he is caring for
- 3:52Speaker 3: the boys full time while I prepare to move, he
- 3:55Speaker 3: obviously stops the child naserence tanment to me, which is
- 3:57Speaker 3: what we had agreed. I didn't want to be in
- 3:59Speaker 3: the sey of anything because I don't have the children,
- 4:01Speaker 3: and that money was court ordered at the time of
- 4:04Speaker 3: our divorce for our boys' activities, so their extrac recollectivities,
- 4:07Speaker 3: their breakfast club, after school club, tutoring, athletics, football, you
- 4:11Speaker 3: name it, they do it.
- 4:12Speaker 4: And that's what that money was for.
- 4:13Speaker 3: So it's not a substantial amount, but it was in
- 4:15Speaker 3: line with his salary at the time and it was
- 4:16Speaker 3: enough to cover those outgoings.
- 4:18Speaker 4: Here's a bit that through me.
- 4:19Speaker 3: He is saying that I need to pay him child support,
- 4:21Speaker 3: he said, and I was like, sorry, what exactly do
- 4:25Speaker 3: you mean? He literally repeated himself and said that now
- 4:28Speaker 3: that he has the boys, I have to pay him
- 4:30Speaker 3: child support. And you know what it's like when you're
- 4:32Speaker 3: starting a business. It's not like I have the financial
- 4:34Speaker 3: securities or the financial pulling power as I did while
- 4:38Speaker 3: I was an EA. So I'm like, where exactly do
- 4:41Speaker 3: you think I'm going to get money from to pay you?
- 4:43Speaker 4: Lo and behold.
- 4:43Speaker 3: I received an email this week from a mediation service
- 4:46Speaker 3: saying that he has instructed them to start mediation with me.
- 4:50Speaker 3: I would have to cover all of my casks and
- 4:51Speaker 3: they were inviting me to a meeting with them. I
- 4:54Speaker 3: declined it because I'm not mediating over me paying you
- 4:57Speaker 3: child patient? Can you explain to me, like the men
- 5:00Speaker 3: of this generation, I have not heard anything like this before.
- 5:04Speaker 4: Men put money.
- 5:05Speaker 2: Off women do you think she'd have to pay child?
- 5:07Speaker 2: So I am going to return the favor in lieu
- 5:10Speaker 2: of how reasonable. Jasmine was unprecedented event. And I am
- 5:14Speaker 2: going to say this, anybody who uses children for a
- 5:19Speaker 2: financial chip in any capacity.
- 5:21Speaker 6: I have a problem.
- 5:22Speaker 2: M bottom line is, there was obviously gonna factor that
- 5:27Speaker 2: ind but but she calculated. She calculated, well obviously since
- 5:33Speaker 2: you know the calculus is, I'm not charging him anything.
- 5:35Speaker 2: I'm gonna get to going with my life and I
- 5:36Speaker 2: don't have the responsibility that my kids and I don't
- 5:38Speaker 2: have to pay anything. That to me seems a little calculated,
- 5:42Speaker 2: you know what I mean.
- 5:43Speaker 1: So you're gonna move, You're.
- 5:45Speaker 2: Gonna not have to I ain't gonna take no money
- 5:48Speaker 2: from me, but you're gonna take some money to me
- 5:50Speaker 2: and here the kids and I'm out.
- 5:51Speaker 8: Yeah, a little things.
- 5:53Speaker 9: It's not just calculated. I think it's just wow, like heartless,
- 5:58Speaker 9: like why would you not want to take of your children?
- 6:01Speaker 6: And that goes on both sides.
- 6:03Speaker 9: I've never understood that you were having fun when you
- 6:05Speaker 9: were making the babies, right, and then when the babies
- 6:08Speaker 9: are the results of what you both consented to do,
- 6:12Speaker 9: what you both whether it was fun or not, you
- 6:13Speaker 9: consented to it.
- 6:15Speaker 6: Nobody told you.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Here's what I know to be scientifically true.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Every time somebody has a bad sexual experience and they
- 6:22Speaker 2: get preented, the babies always ugly.
- 6:24Speaker 1: Every time.
- 6:26Speaker 2: That's not true, it is, and it's always worn with
- 6:29Speaker 2: a club foot or something.
- 6:30Speaker 1: I'm telling you every time. If you see somebody.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Wasn't Mary with one leg shorter than the other, I'm
- 6:37Speaker 2: telling you they didn't. They didn't like that sexual experience.
- 6:39Speaker 2: That's just all I'm telling you. I know that to
- 6:41Speaker 2: be scientifically true. I've talked to top scientists who told
- 6:46Speaker 2: me stuff like that Saturday, probably if they cross eyed,
- 6:56Speaker 2: you know, like you know what I'm saying. It's always
- 6:58Speaker 2: got all the tell tales of how bad this was.
- 7:04Speaker 9: I mean, we might say we don't remember the encounter,
- 7:07Speaker 9: and it might not count.
- 7:11Speaker 1: A couple of dudes they did it with. It didn't
- 7:12Speaker 1: count at all. Of course, I think that you can't.
- 7:17Speaker 1: It's to me it's.
- 7:18Speaker 2: An elevated child abandon He didn't she didn't go to
- 7:22Speaker 2: at least my daddy went to the liquor store.
- 7:24Speaker 1: She went to Europe.
- 7:27Speaker 8: She had a.
- 7:30Speaker 4: Wait and come back.
- 7:31Speaker 1: So does it matter? Yeah, yeah, well he did later
- 7:34Speaker 1: on when I was young. I think she should have
- 7:38Speaker 1: to pay. I do think that.
- 7:40Speaker 2: I think that one of the things that people get
- 7:42Speaker 2: to do is when they say they work for themselves,
- 7:44Speaker 2: they get there, Like Donald Trump is a being and
- 7:47Speaker 2: paid seven hundred taxes and he worked for himself.
- 7:49Speaker 1: So you know what I'm saying. So here's the scenario.
- 7:52Speaker 3: What do you think he told me that now that
- 7:54Speaker 3: he is caring for the boys full time while I
- 7:57Speaker 3: prepare to move, he obviously stops the child maintenance payments
- 8:01Speaker 3: to me, which is what we had agreed. I didn't
- 8:02Speaker 3: want to be in receipt of anything because I don't
- 8:04Speaker 3: have the children.
- 8:05Speaker 4: And that money was court.
- 8:07Speaker 3: Ordered at the time of our divorce for our boys activities.
- 8:10Speaker 3: So their extracurrical activities, their breakfast, club, after school club, tutoring, athletics, football,
- 8:15Speaker 3: you name it, they do it.
- 8:16Speaker 4: And that's what that money was called.
- 8:17Speaker 3: So it's not a substantial amount, but it was in
- 8:19Speaker 3: line with his salary at the time, and it was
- 8:20Speaker 3: enough to cover those outgoings.
- 8:22Speaker 4: Here's a bit that through me.
- 8:23Speaker 3: He is saying that I need to pay him child support,
- 8:25Speaker 3: he said, and I was like, sorry, what exactly?
- 8:28Speaker 4: Do you mean?
- 8:29Speaker 3: He literally repeated himself and said that now that he
- 8:32Speaker 3: has the boys, I have to pay him child support.
- 8:34Speaker 3: And you know what it's like when you're starting a business.
- 8:36Speaker 3: It's not like I have the financial securities or the
- 8:40Speaker 3: financial pulling power as I did while I was in EA.
- 8:43Speaker 3: So I'm like, where exactly do you think I'm going
- 8:45Speaker 3: to get money from to pay you? Lo and behold.
- 8:47Speaker 3: I received an email this week from a mediation service
- 8:50Speaker 3: saying that he has instructed them to start mediation with me.
- 8:54Speaker 3: I would have to cover all of my costs, and
- 8:55Speaker 3: they were inviting me to a meeting with them. I
- 8:58Speaker 3: declined it because I'm not meeting over me paying your
- 9:01Speaker 3: child contest? Can you explain to me, like the men
- 9:04Speaker 3: of this generation, I have not heard anything like this before.
- 9:08Speaker 4: Men con put money off women.
- 9:10Speaker 1: You think you'd have to pay We're going right to
- 9:11Speaker 1: the folks.
- 9:12Speaker 10: I think that the ultimate punishment is going to be,
- 9:16Speaker 10: not what should it be, is going to be watching
- 9:19Speaker 10: your child be a failure, watching your child have all
- 9:22Speaker 10: kinds of psychiatric and behavioral disabilities. You're going to freak
- 9:29Speaker 10: what you saw when you take away something that you
- 9:33Speaker 10: decided to put in place, because remember when you laid
- 9:36Speaker 10: down and had that child with that person, that was
- 9:39Speaker 10: your decision, is what I did. So now you take
- 9:42Speaker 10: that out on them and think that you're not going
- 9:45Speaker 10: to read what you saw. Yeah, you're gonna see what.
- 9:48Speaker 10: You're gonna see all of it. Believe me, play out
- 9:51Speaker 10: right in front of your faith when you're bailing them
- 9:53Speaker 10: out of jail, when you when they have teen pregnancies,
- 9:57Speaker 10: when they're the same way you are, when they become
- 9:59Speaker 10: a parents, that's just like you. You'll get to see
- 10:02Speaker 10: each and having one of those things that you are
- 10:06Speaker 10: stilled in that child against that off a parent.
- 10:09Speaker 11: You know.
- 10:09Speaker 12: I think that women should pay child support. And the
- 10:12Speaker 12: reason being is the law is not just a specific
- 10:15Speaker 12: If you look at any child sports statute in states,
- 10:18Speaker 12: custodio versus non custodial parent, she's clearly the non custodial parent. Now,
- 10:23Speaker 12: so the father who is now the custodial parent deserves
- 10:26Speaker 12: to receive child sport.
- 10:29Speaker 13: Yes, I think that absolutely she should pay child support.
- 10:33Speaker 13: I'm a family law attorney in North Carolina dealing with
- 10:35Speaker 13: child support cases like all the time, and it's not
- 10:38Speaker 13: about like mother or father, it's you know, custodial parent
- 10:42Speaker 13: versus non custodio parent, Like what parent has that child
- 10:45Speaker 13: full time? And if that parent is not the one
- 10:48Speaker 13: that has a kid full time, they should absolutely be
- 10:50Speaker 13: paying child sports.
- 10:51Speaker 11: Baby girl, that's not how this thing work. Those kids
- 10:54Speaker 11: belong to you too, because she was on the on
- 10:57Speaker 11: the other foot, you be paying child support. But just
- 11:00Speaker 11: because you're going to give the kids to your husband
- 11:02Speaker 11: and walk away and wash your hand, and you think
- 11:04Speaker 11: you resolve a responsibility of two kids that you gave
- 11:07Speaker 11: birth to, Noah, baby girl, it's not how they work here,
- 11:09Speaker 11: not in this country. I know you say you're moving
- 11:11Speaker 11: back to the UK, but that your kids. That is
- 11:14Speaker 11: rich to me for a woman to give up her
- 11:15Speaker 11: kids and not want to take her kids with and
- 11:17Speaker 11: that's something that's say a lot about her, how trison
- 11:20Speaker 11: she is. But now you should pay child support. Those
- 11:24Speaker 11: kids don't need things. They need they to go to school,
- 11:26Speaker 11: they need clothes, they need food, they gonna need gaycare.
- 11:28Speaker 11: You just can't wash your hands and walk away from
- 11:31Speaker 11: those kids. So yes, but again you try and resolve
- 11:35Speaker 11: yourself with responsibility. He should make you pay child support.
- 11:39Speaker 5: Absolutely, she should pay child support, just like if it
- 11:42Speaker 5: was the woman with the kids, and the man went
- 11:44Speaker 5: on about his business and he needs to pay chiss support.
- 11:47Speaker 5: It takes a lot to raise kids. Ask me. I
- 11:49Speaker 5: know I took my kids' father. You didn't want to
- 11:52Speaker 5: be a father, but I told him he could pay now,
- 11:54Speaker 5: or he can pay letter. I got child supporter all
- 11:57Speaker 5: the way up and my daughter was forty five years old,
- 12:00Speaker 5: so it is worth it. Yeah, she needs to pay.
- 12:02Speaker 5: You can't have kids and just give them away and thanks.
- 12:04Speaker 5: Everybody else is supposed to take care of Are you
- 12:07Speaker 5: any just as well? Heids need a lot.
- 12:10Speaker 1: The question we're asking lady man, who is the scenario.
- 12:12Speaker 3: He told me that now that he is caring for
- 12:15Speaker 3: the boys full time while I prepare to move, he
- 12:18Speaker 3: obviously stopped the child nintenance payments to me, which is
- 12:21Speaker 3: what we had agreed. I didn't want to be in
- 12:22Speaker 3: receipt of anything because I don't have the children, and
- 12:24Speaker 3: that money was court ordered at the time of our
- 12:27Speaker 3: divorce for our boys activities. So their extra reproll activities,
- 12:31Speaker 3: their breakfast, club, after school club, tutoring, athletics, football, you
- 12:34Speaker 3: name it, they do it, and that's what that money
- 12:36Speaker 3: was called.
- 12:36Speaker 4: So it's not a substantial amount, but it was in
- 12:38Speaker 4: line with.
- 12:38Speaker 3: His salary at the time, and it was enough to
- 12:40Speaker 3: cover those outgoings.
- 12:41Speaker 4: Here's a bit that through in.
- 12:42Speaker 3: He is saying that I need to pay him child support,
- 12:45Speaker 3: he said, and I was like, sorry, what exactly do
- 12:48Speaker 3: you mean? He literally repeated himself and said that now
- 12:51Speaker 3: that he has the boys, I have to pay him
- 12:53Speaker 3: child support. And you know what it's like when you're
- 12:55Speaker 3: starting a business. It's not like I have the financial
- 12:58Speaker 3: securities or the financial pulling power as I did while
- 13:02Speaker 3: I was in EA. So I'm like, where exactly do
- 13:04Speaker 3: you think I'm going to get money from to pay you?
- 13:06Speaker 3: Lo and behold. I received an email this week from
- 13:08Speaker 3: a mediation service saying that he has instructed them to
- 13:12Speaker 3: start mediation with me. I would have to cover all
- 13:14Speaker 3: of my costs, and they were inviting me to a
- 13:16Speaker 3: meeting with them. I declined it because I am not
- 13:19Speaker 3: mediating over me paying me child pasness. Can you explain
- 13:23Speaker 3: to me, like the men of this generation, I have
- 13:25Speaker 3: not heard anything like this before.
- 13:28Speaker 4: Men can't get money off women.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Do you think she'd have to pay? It?
- 13:31Speaker 14: Sounds like her husband was paying before when when she
- 13:35Speaker 14: had full custodies, So why was did she have to pay?
- 13:38Speaker 14: It shouldn't matter about her circumstances because she's a woman
- 13:41Speaker 14: or whatever. It shouldn't matter. At the end of the day,
- 13:44Speaker 14: the children are going to be the ones to suffer,
- 13:47Speaker 14: and if they're going to go through the court to whoever
- 13:49Speaker 14: has custody as.
- 13:50Speaker 15: Is the one who gets the money.
- 13:52Speaker 14: So that it's only fair that she should have to pay,
- 13:55Speaker 14: just like her husband did when he when she had
- 13:58Speaker 14: four clusty as a kids.
- 14:00Speaker 12: Yes, she should have to pay child support.
- 14:03Speaker 15: I mean, that's what the whole fight for equal rights
- 14:07Speaker 15: was all about. Y'all want equal rights, y'all want equal
- 14:11Speaker 15: job opportunities, y'all want equal pay, So why not share
- 14:15Speaker 15: the responsibility of the equal bills.
- 14:18Speaker 10: It's all in.
- 14:19Speaker 15: It's all for what's best for the children, if I'm
- 14:22Speaker 15: not mistaken.
- 14:23Speaker 11: And when a man.
- 14:26Speaker 15: Doesn't have enough to cover the child support that is
- 14:28Speaker 15: set by the course, they make him go get another job.
- 14:32Speaker 15: So before you quit your security job and started your
- 14:37Speaker 15: own business, you should have thought about that. She's just
- 14:41Speaker 15: trying to negate her all her responsibility.
- 14:45Speaker 5: She's not gonna have a kid.
- 14:46Speaker 14: She's moving out the country now, you.
- 14:48Speaker 15: Don't want to help take care of them. Yes, she
- 14:51Speaker 15: should be mandated to pay child support.
