My advice is yes, the father should have the responsibility for his kids even if it is just financially, if he is unstable that does NOT mean you let him get away with it, If you try the system will go after him even if you don’t get him right away he will be liable to pay back child support or prison time. Good Luck to you
Always set up child support, but don’t expect to have regular monthly checks. Unstable people are just that & the “system” doesn’t go after them like they would if he had millions to spare. If he’s like most unstable people it takes serious pressure to make them do what’s right, and it takes a long time for the system to build so you better start asap. Being a parent is very expensive, and it gets worse the older they get. I wish you all the luck in the world, you’re at the begining of a long journey.
Yes but if he is that unstable and the divorce decree supports it ensure that your location is kept from him. For that reason I would insist that you involve the State Child Support Agency because they are required to keep your information confidential which would not be the case if it was a negotiation you made with the father.
Yes! Always try to get support. If you are not currently in need of the money you can put it in to a savings account for the child’s future. Stable or not, make him pay you! Taking support from him does NOT mean you must give him visitation.
depends on what you mean by unstable. hopefully its no job unstable. but if you need it and it was decreed by the court then yes. you can always put a lein on his paycheck it tracks his social so you will get your money no matter where he is.
