You said that you "heard" this info and went straight into "he said". This was one person/friend that you heard this from then?

Jorgelito, do you and jewels live in different states? And the law can be so much different between states?
Did you mean Levite? He's talking about alimony which has no real base and often seems random; I was talking about child support.

Your friend is right. I think the system is often exploited. (Welcome to America, right?) Often the guys still get screwed over. I don't think alimony should ever apply, unless it's for a woman who hasn't worked and then it should be provided only to survive until she completes training or school.

Please don't forget that there are millions of women out there who are not receiving Court ordered CHILD support who are getting screwed as well. We all need to take responsibility when it comes to separation and divorce.
