bigboi,

I take back my remark. You are not a dim bulb. You were an uninformed bulb, which any one of us can be at times.

I did find some statistics similiar to what Lisa produced. It showed that the amound spent varied by income level as follows:

Under 38,000 - 600 per month
38,000 to 60,000 800 per month
62,000 1,200 per month

As in her stats this is up through age 17 and does not include college, weddings, and severe medical expenses that occur in some families.

Yes, you can do it for under 900 per month, but it ain't easy.

Hi all,

I'm joining this thread very late. But I wanted to comment on the original news article and the court forbidding the man to father any more children.

Humans are over-running the earth. The population is reaching crisis stage. It seems that there should be regulation on reproduction in order to prevent humans from becoming extinct, as so many other species have done from over-running their environment.

This seems like a drop in the bucket, but step in the right direction.

I intend to look into Zero Population Growth and even Negative Population Growth organizations one of these days.

Just a little side point to the discussion.

Pat,

I intend to look into Zero Population Growth and even Negative Population Growth organizations one of these days.

Unless you intend to start WWIII, which would be one way to accomplish what you propose and then some, I can assure you that the whole project is unneccessary.

The human population on Earth has most certainly doubled for the last time in the foreseeable future. Around 2050, if not sooner, the world population will stabilize on around 11,500 million people before starting to slowly decline.

This is indeed the most "pessimistic" estimate avilable from recent, serious sources, namely State of the world from World Watch Institute, 1994. Considering that this institute is about as alarmist/environmentalist as you can get while still preserving scientific creditentials, and that these figures have met no serious opposition, it is pretty safe to consider them the scientific consensus of the most reliable estimate we can currently have.

That politicians, journalists and environmentalists still believe the fantasy about an explosive population growth, is an interesting fact in itself, but not very related to hard facts.

To LDH,

I understand about the ncp coming to court and ready to lie and finding out that they have other income on the side. I'm referring to the ncp's who only have 1 income and who are struggling themselves. Of course if you have a kid or kids out there, take care of them. I believe that the cp should be working regardless to if they are getting cs or not. Not every one has the $$$$$ to send their kid(s) to private school. You got the skies and the instruments, all these material things. These are things that you want for the child, not need. Don't get me wrong, theres nothing wrong with an exta activities, but sometimes people can go over board. And I do understand cs and the court system all to well. My husband has been playing the court room game since 1994. His ex takes him to court when ever she feels he's not doing what she wants and she gets pissed off. Since 1994, her kids cs has changed 3 times. From 1994-1996, it was $100 a month cause she lied in court, my husband, then at the time was my boyfriend, he caught her lie and threatened to expose her and the judge saw through it. She was asking for $75 every 2 weeks, and the judge made it $50 every 2 weeks cause he saw through her lies. That lasted til May of 1996, she took him back and the courts saw that he had made $17,000 for the year of 1995. That was overtime but its not like he made that annually and the judge went off that. The judge never once asked him for his pay stubs, if he would've seen them, he would've saw that he only brings home around $250 every 2 weeks. The judge talked as through that was his income yearly. The ex lied and said her income was only $9000 knowing she had at least 3 incomes at the time, and they weren't the kind of work that you had to leave the house for. They made him pay $82 a week and we were in poverty until 1999. I had a job to but because I was going to college ft, I couldn't work ft, and we had a kid at home to. There were times he'd bring home checks for $80 every 2 weeks. And because he owed her arrears, they took an extra $10 a week, that's almost $370 a month. At that time, he should've only been paying $65 a week. He finally got it lowered in September of 99, he took it to court in Jan of 99, the judge didn't want to lower it. He told the judge, your putting me in poverty, we both know she's lieing about everything, you've asked her no proof of anything. I have no problem with of taking care of her kids but would you prefer for me to pay a reasonable amount that I can afford and I can still pay my bills or would you prefer me to continue paying this high amount, can't pay my bills and then I find a way to leave my job so I don't have to pay? IT finally got lowered to $50 a week, which was what he could afford to pay and be able to live. Every one's circumstances are different. I know of the court system all to well. There was 1 year that her oldest daughter stayed with us for a month and a half, and they were getting their cs. I brought it up to my husband that your paying for this child and she's here with us, does that make sense to you? He took her to court for that month and a half. The courts gave him credit for the month and a half and she had to pay him for that time. She was mad about it. She tried to take him to court to raise the kids money because she was mad that she had to pay for her kid and she felt that she shouldn't have had to pay a dime. I told her, since you have custody, he has to pay. If he had custody, you'd better believe you'd have to also. He knows that all the money he pays doesn't go on the kids. That same year, a few months earlier. Now this was before her money was lowered to $50. She brought a new bed set for a little over $600. She complained 2 weeks later how she was broke and that her electricity was about to be cut off cause she owed $600. Hello. That bed set you brought with your kids money had nothing to do with them, for someone's electric, gas or any bill to get up to $600, it must have been building up for months. Your kids use electricity and the cs you get should be used to pay your bills. But yet and still you can afford to buy a new bed set for your self. Something doesn't add up. That's what most ncp's ( mostly guys) complain about, is that the $$$$ isn't being spent on the kids. The ncp's have no proof of what's going on and its not right.

To Bigboi,

I understand what your saying about females can choice but guys don't have that option. So therefore, if the female wants the baby and the dad doesn't and she has the kid anyways, of course they make daddy dearest pay. And if the female doesn't want the kid and daddy does, give him custody and make her pay, she doesn't have to have anything to do with the kid. Equal rights, right?

To Claudia,

This comment is about what you said to BigBoi, its not always true that if the mother is the cp and she makes more money because she's educated, the father pays less. My husband only has an high school education, his ex has a aa behind her name. The court still made him pay more that what he should've been and his ex was making 2-3 times what he did.

To Justathought,,

When you made the comment that children are burdens, that sounds so harsh. A child isn't a burden, they are blessings. I bet that if there was a new law to be passed that if you chose not to protect yourself in every way shape for form to not get pregnant,knowing that your not ready and the dad's not ready and abortion of any kind was illegal. If you have someone kill your baby(abortion), you either go to jail for life or you get the electric chair and if you try to give yourself an abortion, you face a life time sentence, I bet you'd have no one getting pregnant unless they were ready. There would be no ooppss!!, it was an accident or I made a mistake.But we know that won't happen.
