Do You Think Deadbeat Dads Need To Be Pictured On Highway Billboards?


In Detroit this week, six pictures of deadbeat dads who owed thousands in back child support were posted along a main thoroughfare. Seeing their photos, the men immediately went and paid the child support.

What about deadbeat MOM's? It's not just the dad's that are dead beats and I take offense to that, esp. after paying $150,000 in chils support over 15 years plus paying for my children's medical insurance and taking them to the Drs, dentists as thier mother refused to take care of them. I took care of my kids, had them over more than the visitation order stated and always bought the kids thier school clothes, school supplies, winter boots and coats, gloves, hats, toothbrushes, toothpaste and even had them taek food over to thier mom's because she was too lazy to go to the store and get food for them and she was using the support money I sent to her for cigarettes, liquor and for prescription pain killers her and her husband bought off the streets.  The courts finally woke up and now I have custody, she is court ordered to pay a measly $35 bucks per week until my youngest child is 18, mom hasn't paid a cent, has a bench warrant out for her arrest. See, moms can be deadbeats too and father's taht actually do things for thier children and dont' run away from thier obligations shouldn't be categorized with the people that don't take care of thier kids.
