It is very hard to support two pre-teen boys. They grow so fast. I work a full time job, a part time job, and sub for two other companies when needed. The boys father doesn't pay child support yet. I have been going to court for child support for 3 years now. I can't seem to get the Judge to order support. I feel it is in part due to my ex being a police officer and the child support judge and him were friends. Also, the boys father has other children with other women that he had after our marriage. He pays both of them child support and after he pays them he claims to have nothing left to pay me. Mind you he has no children living with him. I say he should be the one working 4 jobs. His new thing is he said he is going to file for custody because I am always at work and the kids are raising themselves. How am I supposed to feed the kids and pay the bills if I don't work like I do. I don't want to work as much as I do, I have to! Now I am worried that if I am not home much with the kids he will have ground to take custody. Can I tell the Judge, Make him work 4 jobs and pay support then I won't have to work so much and would be able to be home more with the kids?
