Answer 1

Extortion in the eyes of the law isn't the only kind of extortion because the law is partial: it "sees" only the evils it wants to see, and it looks at some people more carefully than others. Never make the mistake of letting the law define morality; the law can do no such thing. Nature makes moral laws, just as it makes physical laws, and the part of mankind is to discover them and conform to them, to ensure that legislation is in accord with and not in conflict with the moral requirements of nature.

The custodial parent has by far the sweeter deal EVEN IF THE NON-CUSTODIAL PARENT PAYS NOTHING.

If (by some miracle) I were awarded sole custody of my child, I'd never report my ex-wife for non-payment of child support as long as she did not interfere with how I raised my child. She could start over with another man, unhindered in her prospects for a new marriage and unburdened in her performance for her new family by any obligation to me.

If I were writing the laws, the custodial parent would usually be the parent would could best afford to raise the child. Only in exceptional cases would I give sole custody to one parent and stick the other parent with paying the bills. Most of the time, the parent who got custody would not get child support, and the parent who did not get custody would not have to pay any support. The child would be amply provided for because the parent who was chosen to have custody would be the parent with the means in hand to pay the necessary expenses.

As it is, the child custody system is designed to embitter whomever the non-custodial parent is, to the point of intransigence, violence, and attempts to evade. And that bitterness is perfectly understandable, since not only is the non-custodial parent denied the satisfactions of raising a child, which is why people have children in the first place, the non-custodial parent furthermore must pay sums that seem far in excess of what is needed for raising a child (mostly because the custodial parent is spending the non-custodial parent's money and so she has no incentive to shop wisely). He must pay those sums to someone whom he probably doesn't like. He must suffer for a major part of his adult life the handicap, with respect to remarrying and trying again to have a family, that goes with having to pay those sums.

And all that hate and bitterness and legal trouble could be avoided simply by awarding custody to the parent who can best afford to do the raising without the other parent's help. Man, what a screwed up set of laws we have.

Answer to your question: he's a victim of extortion. The exwife is the perpetrator. The law is her accessory, before and after the fact.

Answer 2

Total deadbeat and it is unfortunate scum boys like this don't even feel shame for leaving their child "without". I would bet that if asked why he doesn't pay child support he would blame his X and say he doesn't want her(the ex) to benefit from his efforts. What these types fail to realize is the money is for the child and only benefits the home parent by helping provide the needs of that child. These people need to have the money taken directly from them by a court officer, but since that is costly it won't happen and kids are left to suffer the loss.

Answer 3

It's funny how the PP trys to maintain some kind of equality when he starts talking about the justice system and who gets punished but then spills his beans by saying "He" must pay, "He" must suffer. I got news. "She" was my mother...and she never paid a dime. I never felt like she deserved anything. I never felt sorry for her predicament. Ever. The "she" who never had any worry about how he spent the money and to shop wisely was my father. He worried all the time.

My point is, if he is a good dad he WILL get his kids. If he's not worthy of them, then he won't.

Answer 4

Dead beat dad.

Answer 5

He is a deadbeat but he is not typical. The typical deadbeat earns one seventh what he does.

I want to make some thing clear. A lot of girls and women pull a passive resistive piece of stupidity and it always end up like a disaster.

They say trust me with birth control. The man does. She is pregnant and feels entitled to have him committed to the relationship that he had no commitment. It is common for him to be resentful and then walks away because he did not ask for this and all he did was to trust her. Woman do this all the time and they wonder why it does not work.

     Before you start a morals talk with me I want to remind you that what you tried failed and you are all alone with the kids. Who cares if you are right if your personal relationship with the father of your children is a failure because you followed a sure formula to make that happen.

Answer 6

How is he a victim of extortion? He's waited so long to pay child support that his kid is almost grown up and won't be eligible for it much longer.

And from the article, he earns good money and can well afford to pay, this is not some poor fellow who is in a low paying job and barely getting by.

You posted about a woman owing $210,000 who was imprisoned, yet this man owes $420,000 and continues to live comfortably, thumbing his nose at the law. he hasn't even got the excuse of maybe being mentally affected, he's just a criminal.

Where are the people yelling for equal rights for men?

This guy should be having his income garnisheed and his property sold and put into a trust fund for this kid. She will need a future!

Issues between him and his ex are just a smokescreen. They're grown-ups, and should sort it out or shut up. This is about the kid.

BTW ~ what's the betting, if he ever needs a kidney, he'll go straight to the kid for his chance?

If I was her, I'd say ~ yeah, in a few years.

He's a creep.

Cheers :-)

Answer 7

"Deadbeat" mums and dads? What a judgemental expression.

Answer 8

extortion do the math it dosn't add up

Answer 9

Extortion is the gaining of property or money by almost any kind of force, or threat of  violence, property damage, harm to reputation, or  unfavorable government action.

I believe it is moral extortion but legally, it is not  extortion because he has committed a crime (not paying his child support).

Answer 10

Again any data collected will be done in such a way as to provide a skewed view in order to forward a given opinion. In this case it is to bias you against the father. I'm sure their is a balance of guilt on both sides of this argument.

Answer 11

From the information provided, a deadbeat.
