She gave the woman grief because she tried to use him not paying child support as a reason she’s not paying the cable bill. She thinks deducting the cable bill from child support is appropriate when it’s not! And how is he gonna deduct it when the courts are already garnishing the set amounts from his check?!
@@nanjones3973 Yes, and more so. If the court has made a decision and has garnished wages on one of the parents, the other parent has no right to change how that support is being paid. She nearly doubled dipped. She didn't take him to court at first because she would have to pay, meaning the child was going without when in his custody. Then she gets him to sign her up for cable. She moves and leaves him with a bill over 1k. Meanwhile she decides she has her child more often and sounds like she changed jobs to a lower paying job. She goes to court and gets support, with back pay for the months he was paying for the cable. So she almost got away with it. but now she has to pay him back for the cable. Sounds fair.

I mean if she’s broke why ask for cable, ask for the child support payments. She seems to have depended on him to be the adult and not take her own responsibility (she didn’t know the babysitter wasn’t being paid, she wanted cable for a 3 year old, filed late). He is doing the bare minimum sure, but she isn’t owed anything the kid is.
@@mmk07135 did you not hear her say she was making more than he was at the time & she had the child more? So she was likely doing him a favor by not putting him on child support and thought they could come to an agreement. & she never asked him to pay the bill, she asked to open the line in his name. She was making payments until she fell on hardships, which he clearly was in the same boat before but you don’t see her holding it against him. Lmao she helped him when he was down and here he is, beating her when she’s down. Men love blaming women & never hold men accountable for skipping out on their responsibilities. Lol you paid zero attention to the actual details on the case. & let’s be real, society would be mad if she did put him on child support and clearly if she didn’t. She’s damned if she did damned if she didn’t but never any blame the men.
Wow! Totally disappointed in the judge! She grilled her about child support, but did not say anything to the father! He is responsible just as much as she is!
Yeah but he will never change being a dead beat. The only way that will shift is if the girl forces his hand through the courts. That is why it was all about her, not to be mean but to empower her to fight for her child.
THAT IS EXACTLY what is happening to my niece. She finally filed for child support. He is paying but now fighting to get it lowered because "he was humiliated by his boss telling him he has to get his wages garnished'. Disgusting piece of *&&^. He is also filing for full custopdy of the kids as payback.
Yes, I agree, punished the child, doesn't matter what angle you look at it from and am surprised that the Judge, famous for her opinions, didn't have an opinion of this nastiness on his part.
That's not audacity, that's just common sense tough talk in defense of the child whose "necessary" needs the mother has seemingly neglected. Obviously, Mommy thinks it's more important to have cable television in the home for the child, although I'm quite sure that it is mommy mostly benefitting from the cable, rather than child support.
Nonsense, just because she wants money that doesn't mean she would get them from a court. JM is totally correct, if you think you are owed money for child support, go get them. Unless you know the court won't reward you and use it as an excuse for nonsense. In this particular case, they share custody and the child spent time on both parents. Why would she get child support? She made more money than him and he had the child about half days each month. Then after she didn't pay her bills they fought about it and she decided to keep the child more days and the court ruled she should get 120 dollars = nothing. JUst because you are a woman that doesn't mean automatically you will get child support. The family court that rewarded her 120 dollars has already decided he doesn't owe anything for previous child support, why JM attack the father for that? Because the mother thinks he owes her?

It means for Caribbean people you put yourself in a difficult situation by making foolish decisions. I detect an accent from him. He is referring to the equipment she did not turn in and now they have to pay.These are terms used by our elders.
His comments threw me for a loop, too. I think that he was just embarrassed that the child support issue came up and was just saying something. Either that or she did something that was edited out (likely not).
After he made that comment I had to stop and look at the comment section because that just threw me off. She seems like struggling single mom and she said that she has health issues so why would he even say that. it really rubbed me the wrong way. she did nothing wrong. plenty of mom's don't want to deal with the courts because it's a hassle. the facts that the courts had to take it out of his checks is proof enough that he was inconsistent. it doesn't get that far unless he's not paying.
@@stefanossmitty3318 Correct. and she said he just needs to take this money she owes him out of the child support that neither of them can change because its in the courts now. Now that it is in the courts, this is the only way to make everyone whole.
How is it taking money from the child if it's going from one parent to another? Shit doesn't even make sense. So every bill that she has is taking money away from the child? So should he pay all of her bills? Or is that taking away from the child too? I swear people don't think these things through.
What’s that have to do with honoring a financial obligation ???🤔. Paying her own bills is taking from the kid, she needs to manage better and handle her responsibilities.
A thousand-dollar cable bill is FAR from significant enough for me to sue the mother of my child. Taking food out of my kids mouth over a cable bill?! NAHHHHHHH
How many times did this young lady have to repeat to JM that she had already gone to court and an order is in place and that the furthest they would backdate any child support was to August?! JM kept preaching that the cable bill and child support were 2 separate things yet grilled and questioned the young lady about it when she should have asked this poor excuse of a man WHY he hadn’t contributed to HIS child. This case was hard to watch 😣
Definitely get an agreement in court. I had to learn the hard way. Even though the judicial system is a joke on calculating a measly payment to raise a child.
Why is she grilling the mom? She is doing what she’s supposed to. She went to court. She got an order. HE IS NOT PAYING. You can’t force someone to pay anything they don’t want to (unless the court orders it and garnishes checks). She needs to be grilling HIM.
She wasn't being honest about him paying her or helping her financially with their child. She was double talking. He wasn't behind. The court assessed their situation.
I find it strange that in this society and culture only women are held accountable when it comes to children. Yet, it's the male who actually impregnates the woman, but he shares none of the accountability. That's fascinating to me and guys think they are decent fathers when they pay a pittance in support when the cost to raise a child annually is between $15,000-$20,000. Stop birthing these bastards children. Some don't deserve a lineage. They need to be held MORE accountable and share the responsibility.
Judge Milian is always so much harsher on the women. I get she thinks that women should assert themselves not follow after irresponsible men or have more self worth but it's all in the delivery and how you say it. These men on here need to be told their crap stinks too.
Why wasn't jm getting on HIM for not paying his child support for so long? Instead of making the mother feel bad for not fighting him for it? That didn't sit well with me at all.
If she's not on any public assistance, chooses to take care of her child on her own there's no need to insert courts in family business. People don't always need courts to sort their affairs.
$110 a month so their 3 year old child can watch TV. Whats really sad that she felt this reason is strong enough to say on national TV! In my circle of friends they would bring it up on any occasion and you keep doing it until my 3 year-old daughter has kids of her own.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to make the most out of life and avoid headaches like the one depicted here, here is the CORRECT order of major life's decisions: 1. Date 2. Get engaged 3. Marry 4. Have children The WRONG order would be (1) date (2) have children out of wedlock (3) leave mother and child (4) get married to someone other than the mother of your child(ren); (5) avoid paying proper child support to the mother of your child until the court says you HAVE to do so; (6) sue in small claims court. There are no guarantees in life, but if one is interested in making wise decisions, start with the basics. That's the order, folks.
Terrible! If this was Judge Judy or Judge Mathis, they would have been all over that man for not taking responsibility for his son! Just like JM told her she needed to put her big girl panties on, she should have told that man to put his big boy underwear on and take responsibility for his son! They both had a child not just her!
Glad she told her to go get moneys for her child. Because telling him to pay, when he clearly hasn’t paid anything won’t change even if JM would have grilled him. She has to be proactive and put child support order on him 👩⚖️
Thank you! So many comments on here angry at JM for saying nothing to him, when he clearly doesn't care. She was hard on the mom because the mom waited a year to fight for the support she needed for their child!
The defendant thought she was in judge mathis court. She kept throwing up child support that she didn't file for until she was making lesser money and then she said they were paying everything 50 50 before that. Yeah Judge was hard on her because she was trying to come off as a victim to keep from paying the bill she agreed to pay for in exchange for child support. She was right 2 different things.
It’s so sad and dumb because there are so many other ways to entertain a child including putting on a FREE youtTube kids video… but they don’t have brains and want to live above their means.
If I was him I woulda just asked her to deduct it from the support or just paid it and not sued cuz he may have won the battle and lost the war over some damn cable
Yeah it seems like she was trying to explain that at the end! She said she requested him take it out of his “child support “ money from their child tax break but the point got brushed over
These people lack common sense and end up in the positions they are in. You’re struggling to make ends meet and decide that you need cable? Nobody NEEDS cable .. it is a luxury. Turn on UA-cam kids and pay your bills. The entitlement in these two is just plain pathetic.
Why tf is JM so angry at the woman. She’s yelling at her but didn’t say a single thing to that scumbag of a plaintiff. She picks and chooses..nothing new.
If you can't afford to pay for cable, use a DVD player. In my poor as crap days with tiny kids, they watched the same Thomas the Train DVD over and over again. I'm not judging needing a distraction so you can make food or heaven forbid use the bathroom (why do they KNOW when you have to go...). But use a dirt cheap option. If you're doing it on your own, you're throwing away your $ with cable.
Absolutely believe that guy said he would pay the cable bill instead of child support. Why didn't he shut it off when she was 1 month late? Mitigate your damages, sir.
Finally the judge went off the case .. child support is not this case . If she wanted to handle that go to court .. which she did .. and pay attention to what she says .
I see the moms in comments are big mad over the verdict in this case but the case was not about child support it was about a cable bill cable😂 she owed him that money!
Yep!! Exactly! That’s why the country is so over burdened with having to pay for our careless citizens who keep having babies, even though they know dang well they CANT AFFORD THEM!! Why?? A few $ more on their welfare checks or a little more in food stamps! That’s crazy & will no way help pay for another mouth to feed, clothed, etc.! (Who suffers in the end? The kids do!!
I like how JM was firm yet gentle with the defendant about the purpose of child support and what she needed to do. Some people honestly don't know or think that they will get more. I used to tell the young men in my life that child support protects them. Establish it through the courts when you are still getting along because when if it gets bad, they will owe for ALL the years not represented through the courts. Some judges consider the direct payment a gift and WILL NOT count it against the arrears. Just do everything above board.
The judge did the right thing. The Child support and cable issue are two separate things. Just because he’s behind on child support does not negate her from her duty of paying off the cable bill. This is why judge Milian is the judge and we are not. She can’t rule based on emotions. She ruled based on the facts of this case and the law.
The lady to the left of the plaintiff and the one to the right of the defendant are absolutely lovely. That being said, more people world wide should just pay $70.00 a month for internet, and use FREE services like 'Tubi, Freevee, UA-cam, etc.' to save money. Did wonders for me.
I felt Judge was too hard on her too, but she was just giving her some tough love. That stern but loving look she gave her at the end was very telling. She looked disgusted with him, which is probably why she didn't waste her breath telling him what he already knows
Get rid of the welfare system which is a great encourager of irresponsible pregnancies. It's easy to "spit out kids" when you know that someone else will be paying the "freight."
Everyone crying out here, especially women, about child support but this case was not about or before the judge as a child support case. This case was about the plaintiff making a contractional agreement with the defendant to have cable installed in her home which she would be completely & solely responsible for but then reneged on & caused the plaintiff to incur financial distress. The defendant owes the money, period & that was the only issue that was before this court. The defendant filed for child support 2 years after their separation & only because the plaintiff sought to recover his money for the cable installation. Apparently, everything was good prior to this cable issue & so the defendant didn't feel that a court-imposed child support order was necessary which suggests to me that the father was already willingly paying some measure of support for the child.
No he wasn't paying nothing, he could have paid that cable bill every month when she couldn't but he didn't and he could have had the account stopped when he first notice she hadn't paid
The plaintiff was nice enough to hook the cable up for the defendant, which he wasn't obligated to do, but did so anyway because her credit was SHIT. All he asked for in return was that the defendant pay the bill but she couldn't even do that. You NEVER sign for a person who has Bad credit because they are usually irresponsible & users & they will screw you over just as they did the credit company. @@missa1goins

Because he’s not even worth her breath that’s why
@@thatsassyrepublicanthis!!!!
What should she say? She doesn't care about either of the parents she's worried about the child!
@@shaydaslaysshe could’ve went off on that bum like she did the woman.
@@shaydaslaysand I said what I said, never said she don’t care about the child but If you’re going to go off on the mom the dad a bum too!
A thousand-dollar cable bill is FAR from significant enough for me to sue the mother of my child. Taking food out of my kids mouth over a cable bill?! NAHHHHHHH
How many times did this young lady have to repeat to JM that she had already gone to court and an order is in place and that the furthest they would backdate any child support was to August?! JM kept preaching that the cable bill and child support were 2 separate things yet grilled and questioned the young lady about it when she should have asked this poor excuse of a man WHY he hadn’t contributed to HIS child. This case was hard to watch 😣
This guy is a lousy BUM !!! This girl should not have been so nice to him from the start
Put them on child support right away if you were never married.
Harvey acting surprised that two adults cant be amicable and make an agreement without going to court
Considering his job, it makes sense. That's all he sees!
Judge Judy would’ve ruled differently and scolded the father about not paying child support. Smh
Hear that, men! Children are entitled to support. Not just from the mother.
Definitely get an agreement in court. I had to learn the hard way. Even though the judicial system is a joke on calculating a measly payment to raise a child.
I honestly don't like how judge came down on her so hard. He's clearly bum material and needs to do better by his child too.
💯
That’s why she went so hard on her because she can do better. He’s stuck being a POS.
She's also a bum. They deserve each other
So if he’s a bum who is going to get him to pay support.
It’s her job to go get him to pay up
Why is she grilling the mom? She is doing what she’s supposed to. She went to court. She got an order. HE IS NOT PAYING. You can’t force someone to pay anything they don’t want to (unless the court orders it and garnishes checks). She needs to be grilling HIM.
She wasn't being honest about him paying her or helping her financially with their child. She was double talking. He wasn't behind. The court assessed their situation.
I find it strange that in this society and culture only women are held accountable when it comes to children. Yet, it's the male who actually impregnates the woman, but he shares none of the accountability. That's fascinating to me and guys think they are decent fathers when they pay a pittance in support when the cost to raise a child annually is between $15,000-$20,000. Stop birthing these bastards children. Some don't deserve a lineage. They need to be held MORE accountable and share the responsibility.
He bogus as hell SMH she sound so quiet 🤐
Sad little boy.....smh
Dad's a real gem.
The Plaintiff knew he’d win. He hardly had to say a word.
JM needs to retire atp. She’s always going after one side instead of the side that should be lectured.
Judge Milian is always so much harsher on the women. I get she thinks that women should assert themselves not follow after irresponsible men or have more self worth but it's all in the delivery and how you say it. These men on here need to be told their crap stinks too.
Why wasn't jm getting on HIM for not paying his child support for so long? Instead of making the mother feel bad for not fighting him for it? That didn't sit well with me at all.
why did the judge say nothing to him about his child support
If she's not on any public assistance, chooses to take care of her child on her own there's no need to insert courts in family business. People don't always need courts to sort their affairs.
Maybe one out of a million. Hence the necessity
$110 a month so their 3 year old child can watch TV. Whats really sad that she felt this reason is strong enough to say on national TV!
In my circle of friends they would bring it up on any occasion and you keep doing it until my 3 year-old daughter has kids of her own.
That's half of a car note. A 3-yr-old would have to make do w streaming cartoons on a cheap tablet.
OMG! The father is the worst!
Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to make the most out of life and avoid headaches like the one depicted here, here is the CORRECT order of major life's decisions:
1. Date
2. Get engaged
3. Marry
4. Have children
The WRONG order would be (1) date (2) have children out of wedlock (3) leave mother and child (4) get married to someone other than the mother of your child(ren); (5) avoid paying proper child support to the mother of your child until the court says you HAVE to do so; (6) sue in small claims court.
There are no guarantees in life, but if one is interested in making wise decisions, start with the basics. That's the order, folks.
Terrible! If this was Judge Judy or Judge Mathis, they would have been all over that man for not taking responsibility for his son! Just like JM told her she needed to put her big girl panties on, she should have told that man to put his big boy underwear on and take responsibility for his son! They both had a child not just her!
Really gotta be careful who you have children with, the fastest way to ruin your life is to have a child with the wrong person.
Yes, she was definitely the wrong choice.
Glad she told her to go get moneys for her child. Because telling him to pay, when he clearly hasn’t paid anything won’t change even if JM would have grilled him. She has to be proactive and put child support order on him 👩⚖️
Thank you! So many comments on here angry at JM for saying nothing to him, when he clearly doesn't care. She was hard on the mom because the mom waited a year to fight for the support she needed for their child!
Over a 1000 dollars a year for cable is too much luxury for the baby, according to him, SMH 😡😡
Kids don't need tv
@@surfbreak190Wow, you are going to be a lame parent lol
@@surfbreak190I agree kids don’t need cable.
@@oldageisdumbyou sound like a 10 year old. Kids don’t need tv. In this economy, that is a lot
I doubt the child was watching television more than mommy. We know exactly who this TV cable was clearly for.
The defendant thought she was in judge mathis court. She kept throwing up child support that she didn't file for until she was making lesser money and then she said they were paying everything 50 50 before that. Yeah Judge was hard on her because she was trying to come off as a victim to keep from paying the bill she agreed to pay for in exchange for child support. She was right 2 different things.
Wow, someone finally called it fair from the facts shown in the show. I'm impressed, thank you.
What sort of father doesn't support his own son and then when on rare occasions gets him for a day or 2 needs a baby sitter to look after him.
Unfortunately, for parents like these, cable IS a necessity because TV is the "babysitter" and entertainer for the child.
This!! If she asks for child support how the hell is cable on her to get list
It’s so sad and dumb because there are so many other ways to entertain a child including putting on a FREE youtTube kids video… but they don’t have brains and want to live above their means.
One of them should have turned the cable off when it was clear they couldn’t afford it. DIRECTV often tells you to leave the antennae.
If I was him I woulda just asked her to deduct it from the support or just paid it and not sued cuz he may have won the battle and lost the war over some damn cable
Yeah it seems like she was trying to explain that at the end! She said she requested him take it out of his “child support “ money from their child tax break but the point got brushed over
These people lack common sense and end up in the positions they are in. You’re struggling to make ends meet and decide that you need cable? Nobody NEEDS cable .. it is a luxury. Turn on UA-cam kids and pay your bills. The entitlement in these two is just plain pathetic.
EMPHASIS ON THE ONE CENT HE IS OWED 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
She’s probably gonna turn around and ask for more child support he just messed up 😂😂
This a weak a** man case! You behind on child support but taking the mom to court! She better get smarter about this situation. Smh
bro don’t bring up child care and child support that was established a YEAR later bro just pay the shit not even $200 a month for cable 🙄🙄🙄
Well apparently it was agreements made before coming to court, the defendant tried to explain that.
10:53 You scolding the Mom about child support but never said a word to the Dad on why he didn’t pay. Saying what kind of Mom are you.
A man shouldnt have to be forced to pay child support its supposed to happen naturally 😔
So the judge yelling at her but he don't pay child support and has new kids he takes care of.
Why tf is JM so angry at the woman. She’s yelling at her but didn’t say a single thing to that scumbag of a plaintiff. She picks and chooses..nothing new.
Judge asked her if dad violated the court order for child support , she said NO
I hate when they say my CHILD it our CHILD
If you can't afford to pay for cable, use a DVD player. In my poor as crap days with tiny kids, they watched the same Thomas the Train DVD over and over again. I'm not judging needing a distraction so you can make food or heaven forbid use the bathroom (why do they KNOW when you have to go...). But use a dirt cheap option. If you're doing it on your own, you're throwing away your $ with cable.
Regardless of her mistake yes she should pay the cable bill but he's a total DB
Why do people have such hard times explaining the most simplest of things. It's so frustrating
Judge is spot on with this case. Poor woman. Pfft.. poor her
"She thinks she can get even more money out of me 😁." He's a prince. Glad she's going through the court now...
Absolutely believe that guy said he would pay the cable bill instead of child support. Why didn't he shut it off when she was 1 month late? Mitigate your damages, sir.
He wanted this
Just because a man has a judgement for support doesn't mean he will pay it. In Tennessee, the courts won't do anything until it's about 7,000 behind.
no handshake shade....works everytime doug !
Finally the judge went off the case .. child support is not this case . If she wanted to handle that go to court .. which she did .. and pay attention to what she says .
I see the moms in comments are big mad over the verdict in this case but the case was not about child support it was about a cable bill cable😂 she owed him that money!
Women need to hold men responsible for their children. Not the Taxpayers!!!!!
Yep!! Exactly! That’s why the country is so over burdened with having to pay for our careless citizens who keep having babies, even though they know dang well they CANT AFFORD THEM!! Why?? A few $ more on their welfare checks or a little more in food stamps! That’s crazy & will no way help pay for another mouth to feed, clothed, etc.! (Who suffers in the end? The kids do!!
Plaintiff got some damn nerves suing someone for a cable bill and he’s not even paying child support 😠
$120 a week for child support? When the childcare is more than that weekly is crazy to me
I know some that pay that a month
And what according to you would be more reasonable?
Child support is based on income so if women expect to rake in money from it, they need to have babies with high income earners 🤷🏾♂️
I guess that she shouldn't have had a child in that case.
@@dessean1 or have one with a man who makes a lot of money 🤷🏾♂️
Wow. Taking money out his kid's mouth - literally.
Let it go bruh it’s over lol
😆
I hope their son sees this one day. Yes, he’s not behind today. But he has been in the past… thus putting his child’s mother in financial distress.
I like how JM was firm yet gentle with the defendant about the purpose of child support and what she needed to do. Some people honestly don't know or think that they will get more. I used to tell the young men in my life that child support protects them. Establish it through the courts when you are still getting along because when if it gets bad, they will owe for ALL the years not represented through the courts. Some judges consider the direct payment a gift and WILL NOT count it against the arrears. Just do everything above board.
The word is supposeDly. Not supposably😠
Hahahaha.
The judge did the right thing. The Child support and cable issue are two separate things. Just because he’s behind on child support does not negate her from her duty of paying off the cable bill. This is why judge Milian is the judge and we are not. She can’t rule based on emotions. She ruled based on the facts of this case and the law.
The lady to the left of the plaintiff and the one to the right of the defendant are absolutely lovely. That being said, more people world wide should just pay $70.00 a month for internet, and use FREE services like 'Tubi, Freevee, UA-cam, etc.' to save money. Did wonders for me.
What kind of man sues mother of his child over cable?? Lmao. Weak one.
What a horrible, petty, adolescent he is. He should feel ashamed, instead he is boasting and putting down the mother of his child. Poor kid. 🤮
I felt Judge was too hard on her too, but she was just giving her some tough love. That stern but loving look she gave her at the end was very telling. She looked disgusted with him, which is probably why she didn't waste her breath telling him what he already knows
The defendant was all over the place. Her child didn’t need TV at the early age of 3. Cable is not a necessity.
People, don't have kids you can't afford... Finances first, then baby
Yk things happen tho right?
Get rid of the welfare system which is a great encourager of irresponsible pregnancies. It's easy to "spit out kids" when you know that someone else will be paying the "freight."
@@theebougieprincess3509 abortion, keep the condom on, pill, morning after pill... Need I go on?

The sky is a loser? And he's abusive verbally and you can see it because of the way you handle himself at the end
Being it’s his name, he signed for it, owes support AND has went 2 years without doing a damn thing for his kid! I don’t get how she gets stuck paying
You shouldn’t win shit if you can’t be there for your child.
Everyone is in they feelings why the judge was coming at her, but the mother failed to go to child support early.
Everyone crying out here, especially women, about child support but this case was not about or before the judge as a child support case. This case was about the plaintiff making a contractional agreement with the defendant to have cable installed in her home which she would be completely & solely responsible for but then reneged on & caused the plaintiff to incur financial distress. The defendant owes the money, period & that was the only issue that was before this court. The defendant filed for child support 2 years after their separation & only because the plaintiff sought to recover his money for the cable installation. Apparently, everything was good prior to this cable issue & so the defendant didn't feel that a court-imposed child support order was necessary which suggests to me that the father was already willingly paying some measure of support for the child.
No he wasn't paying nothing, he could have paid that cable bill every month when she couldn't but he didn't and he could have had the account stopped when he first notice she hadn't paid
The plaintiff was nice enough to hook the cable up for the defendant, which he wasn't obligated to do, but did so anyway because her credit was SHIT. All he asked for in return was that the defendant pay the bill but she couldn't even do that. You NEVER sign for a person who has Bad credit because they are usually irresponsible & users & they will screw you over just as they did the credit company. @@missa1goins
She’s drilling this woman about this man not taking care of his child shows how trash Milian is 🚮
She's not a victim. She had 50% liability for creating a child.
@@TopherGrant I’m not saying she’s a victim, that’s not what my comment was about. It was about Milian, she could’ve given that energy to the father who was present. She said nothing to him about not taking care of his son, but scrutinized the mom. Nothing is ever truly 50/50 in custody agreements, even if it were, sounds like she’s doing more than 50% since dude is not taking care of his kid.
@@MsBenitaButrell ahh. I see. Fair point
It goes to show that none of you can separate facts from feelings. There is no court order showing that he is behind in child support.
Awesome comment! Totally correct!
The Judge feels like the woman is very irresponsible. Which it seems like she is.
He really took his bm
To
Court what a lame
Direct tv doesn’t take down the dish/attenaes. So she’s right about that.
The judge cracks me up because she's so damn nosy. If this was judge Judy OH none of this off topic would be heard. She sticks to the complaint period.
