Child Support Agency ( CSA ) is unfair

CSA, guilty until proven innocent

Am I a walking wallet?

I'm sure I am not the only father out there who has been hounded by the CSA. It isn't that I am a bad father, it's just that I didn't have any choice in the first place and now I am paying the price for trusting a dishonest woman.



Does that sound like you? I’m a hard working person from a hard working family. I didn't want kids, but she did and she was less than honest with me! Now the CSA are involved and I'm treated like a walking wallet.

10-6-2008Walking wallet? - You decide - I pay my ex regularly every month based on an agreed Consent Order with an annual RPI based increase. Until last weekend I had not seen my wonderful kids for two years as she said it was now 'inconvenient' to meet halfway once a month. Now she and her solicitor...moreHad enough now

31-5-2008Women can't be expected to take medication full time (which can cause blood clots amongst other things) just in case they have a one night stand!! Besides, not all women are able to take the pill ! Either ways, if a condom fails BOTH should take responsibility, if one isn't used and pregnan...moreDigsy
31-5-2008Believe what you may.. I quote the family planing clinic website, Effectiveness 98 per cent effective if used according to instructions. Two women in 100 will get pregnant in a year.. Or as I see what they are saying.. a car if driven correctly, would reduce the amount accidents on the road.. you ...moreMark
31-5-2008Oh yeah, and wiki isnt a load of drivel is it? Maybe its referring to when condoms were made out of sheeps intestines?! Condoms are 98% effective, that means that two out of every 100 will fail. That info was on the family planning centre website and I have a feeling they actually know what they...moreDigsy
31-5-2008http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condom I dont have to go far to get true facts.. 75% is a guess.. and looking at the true effectiveness I wasnt far off for a typical use..mark
30-5-2008When did condoms start being only 75% effective? Don't be so silly!! Oh lordy, its the most pathetic made up excuse i've ever heard. The poster above is an idiotic, disease risking, responsibility dodging baby spreader who played with fire and got burned.Digsy
30-5-2008Cont.. So 9 months later a child is born into the world, but the difference her to most is this child was born to a mother and not to a father. What ever the intentions the mother had to have a child is hers and hers only. If the father was unaware and only made aware later on, the father intentions...moreMark
30-5-2008It’s funny, how that vast majority of people forget who has the actual power to have a child. And yet men are towed along made to pay for the journey. I keep getting pulled down the route of contraception and why not abstinence? Let’s start with a fundamental fact of life, I don’...moreMark

28-5-2008Alot of the women dont even know who the Father is. Usually point the fingure at the person they have kept a contact for. In fact 1 in 3 fathers is actually the natural father. Women should be more responsible they know the odds are stacked in thier favour otherwise they would be more cautious. Jus...morehow it is
