    The MDHS State Disbursement Unit is the Child Support department. Dude went nuts because he doesn’t want to pay child support. What a POS.

        Yeah they are. But fun fact, garnishments and liens work just as well without an INTERNATIONAL TREATY and a surprising number of these loons still work and own stuff.

          Yes but they’re their own country, and the USA needs to form a treaty to have say in their business, unless they’re “travelling” or receiving welfare or benefit in some other way

        “I don’t have anything to do with that kid! Why should I have to pay child support?”

        Unfortunately I know people like that in real life, who don’t seem to understand that the child support is largely because they want nothing to do with their kid

            If they were going to want the baby aborted, they shouldn’t have had sex without a condom. You don’t get to cum inside someone and then tell them what to do with it. Your jizz, your problem.

                What a person does with their own body is entirely up to them. If you play your part in making that baby, and the person you came inside of plays their part too, you both have to pay for it. The sperm donor has one opportunity to opt out of being a parent, and that one opportunity is when they’re having sex.

                  Yes, but when one person has the choice to not have a child, the other person can express their desire to not raise the child.

                  If you play your part in making that baby, and the person you came inside of plays their part too, you both have to pay for it.

                  Why?

                  The sperm donor has one opportunity to opt out of being a parent, and that one opportunity is when they’re having sex.

                  Why?

                    1. You can express your desire to not raise a child all you want, it doesn’t change the fact that you made a choice that led to that child being born.

                    2. You both have to pay for it because you both made a decision to make it. Both parents have an obligation to provide support, and if one parent wants nothing to do with the kid, that support must be financial. “Why?” Because that kid costs money to raise, and the alternative is the state paying for your decision not to wrap it up. Like hell do I want my taxes paying for your one night stand.

                    3. Because you can’t make medical decisions for someone else, your one and only opportunity to opt out of being a father is while you’re having sex. The only person who gets to decide whether or not to have an abortion is the pregnant party. If they opt not to, but you really, really want them to, then that sucks for you, but refer back to point 2.
