Bah, I grew up a child of a single mother, my father never gave us any money and we both did what he had to to make do. Did I get everything i ever wanted? No.

My mother got off her ass and worked her butt off to make a living for both of us. Times were hard sometimes, fine at others. We both made do.

My father wanted nothing to do with me and I could care less. Who would want that money anyways?

It drives me nuts when i hear about women who live off of their exes child support, and don't have a job of their own.

That's fine for you...I guess...if you are good with it, who is to convince you otherwise? But what kind of "man" doesn't want to support their kids?

In a lot of cases it's not 'want,' it's 'need.' There's a difference. Such as my mother when she raised me.

I'm pretty sure no prenup in the world is going to absolve you of child support payments.
