Dads are just as important as mums

We hear these days that a dad is just as important as a mum in a childs life, and rightly so.

Iteven says so on my cafcass dvd and they said it a mediation i attended with my ex, but ive rarely heard any mums say “we will split our childs time fairly in half”.

We dont pay each other a penny but when our child needs something expensive we will go halves, other than that if the child is at mums she feeds him/her, and when the child is at dads he feeds him/her. I can’t see many men not wanting this to be brought in, as i said in my previous post i think alot of csa dodgers are scared to lose their homes, and far too much money each month.

On the other hand i wonder what proportion of women would welcome this idea?? Obviously if the time is split 50/50 so is the child credits, family credits. From my own life my ex went away for 3 weeks and left my son with me and my mum, but she still wanted paying!!!

And like a young mug at the time i payed it, when it was me providing. Any thought would be great, i even wrote to lord hunt once and said why cant there be a catalogue that sells childs clothes and a major proportion of the maintanence goes there, so my ex can use it for clothes, shoes, school things?

I got a reponse saying it was my duty to pay and not to tell how to spend lo.
