This is my sister's ex boyfriend. He messaged my mom this. 1st of all, I want to point out he never claimed my niece or even asked how she was doing. Never asked my sister how her c section went and if she was healing up good. My sister always sends him pictures of their daughter. He seems them and never replies back. They serve him with child support papers. Well they got sent to him. Anyway, and this is his response. The least he could do is pay child support. She is only asking $170 a month. When she could be asking more. He comes from a very rich family. He was also so quick to move on from my sister. And now has another girl pregnant. I see what he is trying to do terminate my sister's parenting rights so he doesn't have to pay any child support. Like I said before he's never even claimed their daughter or asked how she was doing. Or anything related to her. He only only wants to take my niece away so he can keep his money. My question is there anything I could do about this to help my sister? I don't want my niece to get taken away. She's in a very loving home right now.
Funny how he things $170 is so much to give for a child he hasn't even taken the time know. Does he think she'll be free if he takes her?? 😂 if he strips her of her parental rights (which takes years) he's now solely financially responsible for the child .. what an idiot lol
And as long as your sister and him weren't married she legally has 100% custody in the eyes of the law until court papers are issued stating otherwise
Since he hasn't shown interest in the child, most likely standard visitation is all he could get until doing : a background check, parenting classes, mental wellness check, "house check" and SO much more. The only way he would be able to "take her" away completely would be if your sister was found an unfit mother which is REALLY hard to do.
Child support and custody are two separate cases. If there are no custody papers then child support is set to the maximum since it's assumed that he doesn't spend anytime with the child.
She's entitled to ALOT more that $170/month
Try more like $500/month
@sarahmartinez817 thank you for replying! :) No they don't split custody. She has their daughter full time. My mom is the one who buy her baby's bottles and diapers. He has never even taken the time to see her. Now he is threatens to take her away so he keep his pretty pennies. I'm so glad you told me he won't win this case just because he used to work at a daycare. I told my mom to tell him let's go to court. He's an unfit and deadbeat father. Yes I hope my sister gets the money she deserves too. :) Thanks for the advice
Does your sister have full or majority custody right now? If so, she is entitled to child support in most (if not all) states.
If he tries to file for full custody, he would need a lot more than working at a daycare to win that case. He would need to prove that your sister is an unfit mother, which is pretty hard to do, especially against a mother.
At best he would get an order to split custody, but if he's never shown an interest in the child before I don't know why he would want that, and he could still end up owing child support if it's less than a perfect 50/50 custody split (though that is different in each state, so it would be best for your sister to do some research on custody and child support laws in your state, usually that info is available on the state government website).
He sounds like he's bluffing to get her to back off, what a useless POS. I hope she gets every cent of child support she's asking for!
Some "Daddies" have so much to say but don't do anything for their children. What's $170 a month for his child?. Nothing!. I hope it all works out-Be positive and document everything he tells you and your family. Keep receipts of everything your sister buys for your niece. I was given this advice by my coworker-hope it helps. God Bless you and your family💕
I told him the only reason why you took care of those kids in preschool is because you got paid. And that you can't even give any money or buy anything for your daughter.
