Second to Mom? More like third behind the state. I know some horror stories from RI single dads and its shocking.

My friend was served from the ACI for full custody. It went to court and the court shut it down but what did she do next? Forced visitation so he had to bring the toddler to the ACI every other weekend. Kid turned 17 this year and she has been out for over ten years. Not one cent of child support has ever been paid and she has called the state at least ten times to claim he was abusing the child she never bothers to visit. Court take away her license? No. Court violate her parole? No.

Massive double standard.

One huge double standard. I know men who've been forced to turn in Job application sheets that they call and confirm your looking for work (good look to new employers) and I've seen mothers sit there and claim they don't work and get ordered $20 a week. Doesn't really have to pay it tho. Keeps license, passport,and taxes. God forbid a payment wasn't processed on time for a man and his license is gone for 6 months
