My parents got divorced when I was 1. They hooked anyways afterward and then came my sister we'll call her R. My dad left when my mom was pregnant with R and went to the Navy. He was absent until I was 7, he came around with his new pregnant girlfriend. Enter my secon sister. We'll call her L. He ended up going to prison for 5 years when L was only 4 months old, and when he got out it was the same old drug problems and so he wasnt around much. He went back to prison when i was 15 and he just got out last year. He has accumulated a massive debt for child support and restitution totalling about 52,000. Now that R and me are over 18 hes not accumulating more child support for us, but he owes back child support and gets about 200 a month deducted from his paychecks. The money is owed to my mother for all the child support he never paid her while we were growing up, mind u he never even paid for food, school clothes, nothing. Now he wants my mom to sign a waiver so that the money isnt taken from his paychecks anymore, where he would be orderd by the court to pay her directly, when we all know he wont. She said no and now they arn't talking and he complains to me aboiut it. In all honesty, she always gives the money to my sister and I, were both college students with our own apartments and cars and living expenses. That extra $100 a month really helps me. How can I make him understand he can't get off scott free and forget about the money he never paid b cuz were over 18? PS He is living with the mother of L and doesnt pay child support for her.
Sorry for the long msg just had to explain the details...
