Hello Everyone
Well, i am not really sure what to write since i have never done anything like this before. My faith isnt really at very high levels right now either. I have never asked for help for myself except when i had custody of my oldest son and i was told that i made too much money. Child support is NEVER figured into the equation. All i can really say is that i was making 8.00 an hour, raising a child, and paying on my car, rent and other monthly bills while paying out at one point over 900.00 a month in support, which finally dropped to about 600.00 a month thanks to a very understanding female judge (Please don't get me wrong. I have no problems with the fact that the judge was a female. Only that everyone in the child support office is female and they don't care if you die. Only that you pay. I could never thank this judge for doing the right thing enough in a lifetime.) I know that i have obligations too the support, however and it's my fault, i trusted twice and should not have becaus i am now paying support on two children that i do not even know because number one i don't have any money to do anything with them and number two i feel that out of sight out of mind is my only recourse since i asm afraid of the childrens mothers asking for more money so that they can live better themselves. Not the children. I do not say this freely. I have seen what happens with the money that i pay out. It is sickening. Both of these childrens mothers got pregnant on purpose only for the money. Yes, this is true and i am sure of it!!! Again though it was my fault for trusting. To go back, as all this was going on i was only making 8.50 an hour and trying to raise a child of my own. (I was not receiving support myself for my son) Who now lives with his mother to try to help me out. This went on for 6 years and my credit was excellent. However you can only do this for so long before ALL of your credit cards get maxed out just trying to live. Its a shame to have to rely on credit cards and to have to apply for them while your credit is good because a person already knows what the future holds as far as this road is concerned. Now i am receiving phone calls all of the time and they just started to call me at work. I am even afraid to answer my phone or door. Just in case it may be a bill collector. I owe almost 40,000 over the years of trying to do the right thing. You see his mother is now trying to help, but i took custody of my son because his mother did not want him anymore at the time. It killed me to even let him go back to her after the way she just let him go, but i had no choice. All we could do to survive was hope i did well hunting, my oversized garden did well, and the game commission would contact me about any road killed deer. As already mentioned my debt is nearly 40,000 and laywers want over 2,000 with court costs to file bankruptcy and to stop the harassment for now. No promises though about how filing bankruptcy would even go. My whole life i have helped anyone that i was able to. I am not a deadbeat and am having a very difficult time writing this posting It is embarrassing and humiliating, but do not know what else to do. If there is anyone who is willing and able to help. I beg you Please. If you have any doubts, i am more than willing to provide you with my personal email or phone number to answer any questions. I cannot be any more serious and honest with you than i am being now. Thanks to anyone who may consider helping and God Bless You!
