We're kicking off the 2024 Secret Santa! Exchange gifts with other monkeys - from beer and snacks, to bike gear, to custom machined holiday decorations and tools by our more talented members, there's something for everyone.
I am pretty sure I don't know the circumstance, so I will keep my mouth shut. I'll just not that it was tough on my mom raising my brother and myself, child support and a job.
Whats liberal about it? Is she not at home making a man some meals, taking a job that some man should really have?
She gets child support to support her child(ren?). She doesn't have to spend all the money she makes from her job on that, so she has some free cash to spend?

her: we're ordering lunch, want something?
me: thanks, brought lunch, can't really afford to eat out.
her: yeah, I wouldn't have money to eat out either if it wasn't for... child support.
Was her reply in a diabolical, scheming manner, or in a "we finally tracked him down so now not only can I buy little Timmy some new clothes instead of shopping at Value Village and taking hand-outs but I can actually enjoy going out for a meal every now and again" way?
Maybe there is something else your not mentioning like she is a money-grubbing whore that took some moron to the cleaners? From this little snippet I could take it to be that the deadbeat that calls himself a "father" is actually doing the right thing and paying his fair share of the support?
So she drives an SUV? Is it a KIA spectra or is it an Escalade? Even if it is an Escalade so what? If her job allows her to buy and drive an SUV that shouldn't disturb you so much. If the father paying child support enables her to go out to luch instead of bologne on wonder bread then whats the problem?
So if she makes enough to buy an SUV then the father/ex-husband shouldn't have to pay child/spousal support?
Are her kids eating bolgne for lunch while shes going out to Ruth Chris' to lunch everyday?
Maybe it was my white trash upbringing, but I've seen a lot more deadbeat dads/absentee fathers then I've seen women taking advantage of the system.
