This is a question Crappy relationships

"Recently," Broken Arrow tells us, "The missus informed me that her brother was moving with us." What has your partner done that's convinced you the magic's gone? "Breathe" is not an answer.

You could always just provide for your children, you irresponsible prick.

You obviously haven't heard the tales of CSA madness
where attempts to amicably support the kids have seemed to be the last thing they take into consideration.

Just what I've heard, I've no direct experience. But people don't climb up parliament dressed as spiderman for a laugh.*

* Well, you know what I mean

Right, except someone has to actually get them involved,
and they can only enforce a limited amount of financial support from you. If he'd manned the fuck up and done more than the bare minimum, they wouldn't need to be involved.

I've got a co-worker whose husband is an IT contractor
currently claiming that he earns £300 a year - as a contractor his "company" earns the money and as its sole shareholder he then pays himself the dividends. From when they were married she knows he's making at least £45K a year.

Despite having this explained to them the CSA is making *her* pay child support to *him* for the weekends when he has them, over and above their losing documents, issuing demands that are in violation of their own rules etc.

I'm entirely struggling to see how most of this is in any way the CSAs fault.

To be honest I tune most of it out
but I wear my "Really? That's shocking!" face so it's alright.

Right, but what proof does she have that they can actually use to make him pay, other than her saying 'he earns more than that.'
It's his fault, not the CSA's.

Well, if he's paying dividends, they must be declared and are a matter of public record. The CSA could very easily find this out - doing so would cost them a quid at most.

I appreciate that the above is probably somewhat beyond your usual modus operandi, and fair play for attempting to take part - but given your depressing lack of knowledge and empathy, you should probably stick to your comfort-zone of calling people 'wankers'. Leave the thinking to others.

PSUEDO INTELLECTUAL SNOBBERY!

Nope, just pointing out that you're a charmless thicky.

Also, 'pseudo-intellectual' is hyphenated.

Oh, well that's me told.
