If there was a law in place that was enforced too that BOTH parents contribute to the child’s upbringing whether it be financial &/or otherwise – you might find more parents will support their child – this should be instilled into children at school – education to support this – not supporting people having kids here there and everywhere and the state brings up the tab!

How does wanting whats best for your child make you scum? How is it ok for a man to have a child, then leave that child and contribute nothing towards it, and then you say that the woman is at fault for picking the wrong man, and it is HER being irresponsible?! HOW in gods name, is it ever ok, for ANY parent, male/female resident/non resident to leave their child/ren and then expect to provide them with nothing? It amazes me the way these peoples minds work. How is any adult that idiotic? A stand needs to be taken against the CSA or a new agency needs to be put together that works better. If the CSA were working for a percent of maintenance they collect, they would work a lot harder to get the right amount. I would be happy to contribute a small percentage of my maintenance payments towards making sure myself and other pwc are getting what is rightfully theirs, and their childrens. Perhaps there is a call for a privatised organisation, one which you can opt into if the CSA fail you, who will do ALL the relevant checks, follow EVERYTHING up, and make it their mission to get whats fair at a small cost to the pwc. It doesnt have to be a profitable organisation, so just cost enough to keep it running. I bet you could find enough intelligent and business minded women that have been shafted by the CSA that would be up for the challenge!

i dont normally have my say on forums, everyone is entitled to their own opinion but the messages i have read on here from anonymous are bordering on psychotic. i dont think this person is normal !!!!! anyone who has children knows you’ll fight for £2;00 or £200;00 to give them a better life . well done karen xx

Kelly please go the child support agencies failings fb group to get advice and support, it should give you an idea of things to try (id you havent already) I suggest everything gets on top of any probs they having with the CSA and/the non support paying parent before the CSA introduce the charges. Good Luck

Hi Gareth, thanks for your comment, sorry to hear you having probs too yes appeal dont give up it should come under Lifestyle Departure, £120 a month is good compared to I at one time got £28 per wk, that was few years ago now, obviously not much changed, you need to speak to Mr Taxman & Mr Vatman too. Good Luck, please join the facebook group Child Support Agencies Failings and see if the advise on there might help also. Good Luck.
