Yeah... they did this man really dirty. He's paying WAY above his means in child support and is drastically sacrificing parts of his life to do it. He's finding roommates, shopping thrift whenever he goes out, and is eating TV dinners hurting his health. He did this because he felt like he needed to do more to make up for the year that he missed, but he only makes 24,000/year. Daycare is expensive, I get that... but if shit hits the fan and he can't find a roommate situation in the future, what happens then? If he hits any hurdle in employment or has a medical issue... what happens then? This was an extremely unfair ruling. The mother just wanted to hurt him at this point.
@@DCfan6767 thing about that is that the burden of proof is on the party attempting to incur higher payments. If he is lying and it comes out then that's what perjury is intended to cover.
@@Mooe-cb6bv How you know? She hasn't ALLOWED him to see his son? When she came to court she wanted him to pay to do so,her words he wants to be dad well he can pay child support. One has nothing to do with the other.
Exactly she is rude and still mad that the relationship is gone. I'm usually for these rulings but as a mother who was wrongfully everything done I have sat on both sides of to he bench and hate this for him.
He was living with other people to make the payment, I don't agree with this, just because the lady said he was lying on his taxes, she can't assure that because she doesn't even know him, just because he agreed to pay that much to get some kind of right make it seem like not wanting to know anything about your child will do better for you
Having to eat off tv dinners is nbot proof he is comfortably able to pay all the daycare cost. Tv dinners are not a wel balanced meal. Hie health is going to suffer.
I'm so glad I clicked these comments and see the same outrage I feel, myself. This was insane. Sure he was decent enough to pay that entire daycare cost...So WHY on earth make him also responsible for reimbursing health insurance? This rules was ridiculous and frustrating. She literally punished him for his decency.
Ever wonder why in modern day men dont want kids no more? This vile woman did this out of spite not love for the child.... and the judge said yea thats cool.....
@@themanwithnoname1839 Unpopular opinion here- I always believed since women get the choice of birthing or aborting the child, with no say from the dad then it's only fair men get the choice of financially supporting the child. Takes two to create the child yet only 1 actually has any real say over the child.
So I don’t think he is telling the full truth. Because he does his own documents and works for himself it’s pretty easy to put how much you earn under certain amount. It’s also really odd that he makes right under $25,000 a year. It’s odd because a lot or tax and government assistance work for those under $25,000 a year because generally that is considered the poverty line. Etc. I just think something is suspicious.
@@wildfirefly22 the federal poverty line is like 16,500 a year actually. But you can still get a lot of other benefits from the state as long as you're under 25k. There's no way to know if he's lying or not though, could be. 🤷♀️ I still think he's paying plenty of support though even if he was fudging the numbers a bit.
The thing I don't like is she said she earns considerably more than him, and doesn't mention the hours she does each week, or how much she earns. Then it's daycare which means the child is in there while she works, so couldn't they come up with a custody situation where he looks after the child - not paying daycare, and hands back to the mum when she comes home, as the child obviously cannot stay over.
The judge admitted he was already paying more than he should and still raised it. That's pretty fucked up. I usually agree with her rulings but this was bogus as hell
It's Texas law that's messed. If the judge had lowered it, mom could have appealed. Dad messed up by offering paying that much. Even in other states, I've seen judges go with what the parents have already been doing even it it's more than what the calculations show. It's dumb; however, it that's what they've been paying without issue, that's what the judge goes with.
The child support system in this country is a scam and needs to be restructured. It encourages family separation and is susepable to fraud. Maryland courts will make you pay daycare and insurance on top of child support.
I feel like he should be able to claim hardship. It's odd that Judge Vonda did this. It was bad enough that she didn't reduce it but then she actually RAISED it for the health insurance? That woman is getting him to pay the lion's share when he's not the custodial parent. That's so wrong.
Yea my ex made over 90k a year but is self employed so wrote off over 65k and taxable income was 24k. He travels, has a 30k car and always has new clothes. Self employed make way more money than they claim
@@Turts-Mc-Gurts ITS COOL IN A REAL COURT OF LAW CHILD SUPPORT GOES AGAINST THE FATHER I SAY ITS TIME TO GIVE THE MEN A BREAK UNLESS THEY CAN AFFORD IT WOMEN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS AND IN MOST CASES GUYS GET PUT IN JAIL WOMEN GET A SLAP ON THE HAND WHEN ITS VISE A VERSA AND MOST PEOPLE KNOW WORKING UNDER THE TABLE WORKS BEST TO SPITE THE MOM DISSAPEAR AND LET HER BEAR THE FULL LOAD FOR WHAT HAPPENS TO GUYS
Sounds like the mother wanted to punish him for wanting to share being a parent... and the judge punishes him for volontarily sharing his salary...?!?! As a woman and mother myself I must say this is INSANELY UNFAIR!!! Appeal, beardman, appeal!!!
Exactly, thats not comfy living and did she even bother to consider if he wants visitation a stable place for the child to live/sleep? Similar life as mother offers? This is why fathers need to be careful, people claim that fathers get equal treatment but this case showed exactly the issues in family court. If he took her back because he was struggling could he get it to be calculated fairly? The mom clearly was holding money in with visitation, she said it and the judge didnt even tell her two separate subjects
😮 Wooooooooooow!! 😮 My mind is in a tornado of thoughts while my heart aches for that man. How can a judge contradict they’re own words. You pay three times too much but legally pay some more. Unbelievable.
My heart aches for the kid. Kids who need clothes and to eat. Two parents made him and two parents need to care for him. I, the taxpayer, is tired of paying for irresponsibility. He goes to go out and get a new job. He has a kid.
This is where her experience in the court comes into play As I watched this i saw the same thing I’ve seen in court while waiting for my own case to come up Many of the dads make choices to keep their income low and make claims of poverty but can find the money for fun things. Things like vacations, dates, the bar, gym memberships, new cars. But then claim being broke and can’t pay for the kids. He looks to be in his 40s. He can afford to go out but can’t afford his life or any kids? Something doesn’t add up. It just feels off. But besides that point. He set a status quo. Legally she can ask for that to be maintained and for him to pay for his portion of the kids. Just because she had paid while he was uncooperative doesn’t mean it was comfortable for her either. They didn’t go into it but she may have been struggling as well and needs help so she can house and feed the kid they made. She can’t be on the hook for most of it because he makes poor financial choices. All of that is extraneous to parenting responsibilities.
She only added in insurance which always make the parent not carrying the child pay back. Then she told him how to get out of paying that by adding the child to his insurance.
She is only doing what the law allows her to do. If the dad petitioned the court to lower the cs then she could have done that but since he didn’t she couldn’t do anything. And the person who pays cs always has to pay the health insurance,
I totally disagree with you Vonda, in the best interest of the child the mother should continue with paying the health insurance. Gracious dad is paying almost half his monthly salary. That was a very unfair ruling.
Support Court with Judge Vonda B. what difference does that make he could have been selling off his own stuff to make enough to pay it and ran out, you took advantage of a man who didn't know what he was legally responsible to pay ,I have been getting child support for 3 years the mother owes me for 8 years over 30 grand and I would never expect her to pay over 50 percent of her income to catch up on back child support, if that was a real case it would have been a very wrong ruling
Support Court with Judge Vonda B. wrong it is the judges job when setting-up a child support pay schedule to make sure the payments can be met with the income of the person paying, this could never be a real ruling , I understand your not a real judge and these cases are just entertainment but you should at least try to stick to reality
I JUST saw him in the backgrund of the video i watched just before this one. First thing i thought was "oooooo! I hope i see HIS video!" Its BEAUTIFUL!
Right? You're paying 850, which is almost 3x what you're supposed to be paying. Now you have to pay 968. Why? Just because! In what world does that make any sense? He should be paying less with that income, but you know F E M I N I S M.
This goes to show, if you help out of the goodness of your heart, there will always be a way someone can screw you over. If she wants help, he should have told this broad to put him on childsupport INSTEAD of offering to pay such an outrageous bill. Reason being; No matter what they say, they WILL put you on childsupport and anything you do to help in the past will come back and bite you.
I don't agree with her judgement... He is paying way more in excess of what child support would be calculated out to be... Voluntarily.... Then she threw insurance on top... He should refile for adjusted child support.. And base it on his income... Goes to show... When you try to be nice Someone's going to shit on you
I seconded that, This was a bad judgement. The judge should had lower his payment because he is paying more than someone who makes twice as much. This is why most men do the least to come out on top thanks for the life lesson. Now more kids are going to suffer because of this type of judgment.
With the excess of overpayment of his child support why is he having to pay for the health insurance? He's already paying the health insurance in the cost of the daycare. This is a prime example to him needing an attorney. I would have said, "no let me pay what is the state's payment scale based on my income."
It should be the simple calculation as usually mentioned. Its understood that hes been paying 500 per month over the estimate. This is a decision that warrants men going their own way and not having kids with women. And, birth rates are going down dramatically. Its a simple calculation for men to make such decisions in todays society.
The problem is they made a deal, he covers day care, she forgoes CS from him. If it was them splitting expenses, CS being part of that, the judge could have adjusted that based on his pay. He is volunteering to pay the higher FIXED amount of day care to not be in child support, VARIABLE. Since he is self employed, this may have been wise, even if he is filing taxes and actually only making that much, having that fixed expense and her having agreed to it, she can't keep coming back month after month saying he makes more, make him pay more and him have all that hassle and a accountant proving he did only make that much. Sometimes its worth paying more to avoid hassle. I agree that 1/2 your pay is too much, but he volunteered that and a court can't order you to un-volunteer and force you to pay less.
@@sheneathahollowell2750kinda late to the convo but if he was lying that should be its own case . her job was just to work with the info she was given not what she thinks it is. i do believe he's lying tho
Wow, so mom got what she wanted and got MORE money. Good lesson to learn, DO NOT start giving money or paying expenses until you know your rights and responsibilities. The same applies to visitation, get everything in writing so it is clear and there are no misunderstandings.
@@Markosam29 that was total nonsense lol tf does marriage have to do with anything about this situation 😂 if he adopted alone, you really imagine he'd be paying LESS to single handedly raise a child? So stupid 😂
Pretty fucked that the lesson is don't do the right thing until the government makes u cause if u do they will screw u. Sucks more that the owner of the page liked that disgusting idea
I’ve seen personally cases in Texas where the dad was volunteering a amount higher than obligated and the judge lowered it as it should be and ordered the mom to reimburse the dad. Point is this judge is full of shit on this case
I only started binge watching these today and this is the first one I think is really unfair. He was paying that 8something out of the goodness of his heart and now he has to struggle further for trying to be a good dad. I hope he appeals this and gets a better ruling. The mother is also horrendous to let this happen as well.
I think it’s perfectly fair. He skated on his responsibilities for a year to lower his taxes thinking he wouldn’t have to pay as much in child support. He’s a grown ass man and you’re telling me he can’t find a job that pays more than $11.54 an hour? She got knocked up celebrating his promotion, and he dipped after he found out she was pregnant. I see this all the time. Men literally quit high paying jobs to avoid a court order, lower their income, get the bare minimum and then once it’s in place go back to his high earnings
@@theoneandonlymvd 🤔 🤨 umm yeah that makes no sense. If that was the case then all have to do is go back to curt & ask to increase in child support based on the new income.
@@millertime28290 it doesn’t make sense to you because you think oh we’ll just go back to court. Getting an adjustment isn’t that easy and when you’re “self employed” taxes can be reduced for literally anything. He’ll be able to write off the day care because it’s an “expense occurred in order to work”.
Wow, there’s no way he is to pay that amount on a very, very low income! My child’s dad makes $80,000 and he only pays $600 a month 🤦🏻♀️ I am baffled at this ruling and it’s not fair for the father whatsoever. The mother makes more money than him and he is trying to do right by his child. This is more than a punishment rather than a fair ruling for both parties. What a shame! He needs to have a second hearing with a different judge or get an attorney.
She really could’ve dismissed this case. I usually agree with her rulings but this one was really mind boggling. Like I can’t understand why she increased the amount?
So lemme get this straight, the dad pays the daycare fully and the mom was paying the health insurance fully by now he pays partially the health insurance and STILL the full day care? wow
@@minxymoo2325 did you even wat h the video? He was paying way more than he could afford and then the judge increased the amount to make it even more ridiculous...
I support and love this judge but this ruling is foul! To admit that he’s paying more than he should then raise it under the assumption that he’s been paying it comfortably after he admits to all the assistance he require is truly foul…
So why not SUBTRACT the $113 from the $855 he's already overpaying so that he's covering most of the daycare expense and ALL of the health insurance since he's already overpaying? He's already overpaying and she's making more than he is! If the roles were reversed the outrage to this ruling would be insane!
I can't believe the judge did that to him. If he was paying $200 a month to the mother in child support the judge would have made him pay more. He earn less but the judge is still going to make him pay more. When the mother brings receipts for items she purchased for the child that father has to pay for half of it. When the father brings receipts for items he purchased for the child it is a gift and he gets no credit for it.
I disagree with this ruling. He is already struggling to pay daycare, that he willing agreed to pay. Mom makes more money and should continue to pay the health insurance. Having the daycare paid for is a huge financial relief for her already. She can handle the $113 that automatically comes out of her paycheck
@@pamelaeiskina3838 I just found that out myself about a week ago. These people were just too crazy for me, but once I found out they were actors, I laughed.
I disagree with the judge on this case. That man should keep what he is paying now. He should also have visitation rights in which he doesn’t. He needs a lawyer.
no he should not his obligation as far as child support is almost 2 times the amount he is supposed to be paying he should pay what is mandatory witch was the 350 a month and the 100 dollars on insurance women want the higher amount of course when they learn she is getting way more than she was supposed to be getting

Bingo!!!!! This is the first parent for me to hear… OUR SON!!!! Thank you. You can tell a lot about a person when they say the child , my child as to OUR child. No matter how bad things are with your ex you say OUR CHILD! This guy is a good guy. Judge what happened???
Texas law. That's what happened. Texas likes to screw fathers in court. Had he not agreed to that amount she would've only gotten the $355 because otherwise she has to prove that he can afford it. Which she can't given the cost of living. The court would've had no way to do that. But because he was bamboozled by this woman into paying that and has been for a bit that means the courts can say "You're making it work so continue to pay." What gets me is that she had the audacity to make him pay health insurance. She should've said that's too much hardship. Now because he has to pay that he will probably not be able to eat or pay rent. That will lead to him going homeless at which point he will take it to court and claim hardship. Whatever judge he gets will review Judge Vonda's judgment and tell her that she was being biased. You heard what she said. She said she had the DISCRETION to assign higher benefits. That means it's her choice. She didn't have to do that. She did that because he's the father. A lot of judges are in favor of mothers. Usually Judge Vonda is pretty good at being fair towards fathers but maybe she had a case that disturbed her right before. I think this one needs to be reviewed. If I were the father, I'd appeal the decision.
I don’t think she’s scamming him. His tax returns are obviously prepared to his advantage. And she knows he’s not broke. So legally he should be paying 20% of what he really makes not what he chooses to report to the government. And based on well common sense he’s scamming her. That’s why he agreed to the $850 a month. He can more than afford that. If anything based on his attitude it’s junk change to him. He should want to have his offspring live the life that he’s living. Not limit it.
@@d2dag5 since when does money raise the child? I was a single parent for years on top of years and it never took 850 a month to raise my lil girl. What does giving the mom or dad,(whoever has custody)more money do with the life that he's living? 50/50.
@@porkbeats the law says 20%. Point blank period. And I would think and hope every parent wants the best they can provide for their child. Yes you can definitely raise a child on a tighter budget. No argument there. But if I could afford to give my child what I never had and more I would. With more income they can join more activities and go to better schools- better daycares. It’s all about the child.
Smart move. I been tell my friends they should get one too because They have already have more then one child and some cheat too. 🤷 Just saying. The procedure is not even super expensive.
That’s fairly young I feel like (they make women wait longer to have tubes tied/hysterectomy, smh) but if you know you don’t want any kids or anymore kids, that’s so awesome of you and I applaud you. Very responsible. My sister’s father is 53 and refuses to get a vasectomy, yet doesn’t want to care for the children he has or the ones that may come in the future
Very unfair ruling by the judge, him paying $855 should be voluntary, the court has no right to force him to pay 50% of his income. The man can't even afford housing for himself. I can't believe she even ADDED more expenses to his already too high payments. This judge got it awfully wrong.
This is the one so far that just was depressing, man struggled to pay for day care. He then had to be legally made to struggle instead of having the law step in and saying he was over paying every month so far. At the start of this the judge was wondering if she was sure she’d want to risk losing extra money, then she GAVE her 113 more.
I disagree with this ruling. Just because he has been paying more doesn't mean he should continue. Also, if he already paying more. Why make him reimburse health care. Absurd
It's all good. He needs a lawyer and GeT his 12 days which affects support. Volunteer for childcare which reduces daycare ... visitation. Basically get your ducks in a row before doing ANYTHING....
@@who346 nope they can have it amended if he fights it and get a lawyer and if that does not work then quit your job she dont get shit and after a year go back to court and they have to go biased off of his income
This was a bad ruling, on her part. I'm kinda surprised . I think the fact that he has been making extraordinary sacrifices in order to give the mother 45% of his income, should have been taken into account, especially if normal child support is 20%. I hope he was able to appeal this ruling
Feel sorry for the father and the way the decision was come to, he has pretty much handed over 50 percent all he earns and yet that still wasnt enough. Madness
He got screwed in the end. Should have never told the judge that he would pay the daycare. Deny, Deny, next time! Coluld have walked out paying the 340 dollars plus med services.
I don't understand why she didn't just make his child support 400 plus the health insurance. This basically just made his life harder because he was a good person. Stepping up got punished 😢.
Gandalf- "I want to be a better man, own up to my mistakes, take responsibility and hopefully have a relationship with my child. I give 45% of my income willingly which equates to 3x the amount I should pay in child support because I want to do the right thing." Judge- "True, tv dinners and roommates are rough, let's add reimbursing that insurance in addition!" 🤷♂️🤦♂️ wtf is this ruling?? Punish a man who wanted to do the right thing? Shes been paying the insurance comfortably, so why??
He may have been manipulating his income but this judgement is no fair. This man just like other guests should be allowed to pay the fair amount based off his salary. That's the $355
I actually feel sorry for the dude. He paid more than he should have, and because of it he's gonna live in a shared appartement until his retirement and beyond. I know it's the law and all but.... If I was a father I would understand this as: give the bare minimum at all times or you might get screwed over later.
I like how the judge assumed he was comfortably making payments. If a judge has the power to just throw the guidelines out the window then how are we supposed to trust the laws and the rules that govern these things??
I disagree with that because if his income by the set standards say he is suppose to pay a lesser amount, then he should have to only pay that with the insurance expense added.
Check with Texas law, that is the law the Judge is upholding. It is fair and just to both parties. He has limited income and is paying for the daycare, same amount as it would be for Child support for one child. You can't have everything.
Startrek1965, If you listened the, so called judge, she stated that his child support would be around $380.00 a month based on his income of $24,000.00 a year. But because he was already paying $855.00 for daycare that he should continue doing that! What the, so called, judge did wrong was adding the $113.00 for medical insurance. If you would read other comments, the so called, judge reply’s to some comments! Vonda B is not a real judge, she’s a lawyer who works with people who hire her to get the other parent to pay more money to her clients.
"Well you were happy paying 850 so why not 1k?" "No I was struggling to pay 850 in the hopes of being allowed to see my son but that's clearly not gonna happen until she gets everything."
This woman wants a 2nd pay cheque and not child support, her demeanour in the court shows that, especially when she wanted him to pay even more than what he owes, and the fact she’s upset he is directly paying the daycare rather than her!!!
I got really weird vibes from this entire case. Laying out a year and then stepping up makes it seem like he waited to get a favorable tax return. If he does only make 24k, then the ruling was practically criminal. The lady seemed greedy in that case. He would need to bring a suit for joint custody and get the support removed. That might be better for the kid anyway. The nice thing is the daycare bills will go down as the child gets older.
THANK YOU. Everyone was acting like a victim, and I found it so hard to believe he only made 24k a year. The whole thing was fishy, and i I thought the judge politely let him know
This mother is literally negotiating this man access to his child based on what he pays. Girl take him paying daycare and shut up. I’m so confused if he would only be paying $340 then why his he paying $855 and healthcare. If I was him I’d be like no legally I only have to pay child support and health insurance and I believe it’s only half of health insurance. I do not agree with this ruling at all
First ruling I have disagreed with. Utterly shocked. Even when he questioned it, the judge doubled down. Almost like he was punished because he already took the initiative to start paying for things.
Glad I am not the only one who is upset with this ruling. If she wanted to be fair, she should’ve lowered the child support to the state figure amount, then added the 1/2 of the insurance amount.
That’s crazy the judge is allowed to “deviate” from what he should lawfully pay for good reason that means it’s allowing the opinion from judge to judge to come up with higher amounts if they so feel like it
I respectfully disagree because he's paying 3times the amount, which in my eyes he's essentially paying back the time he was missing. At the same time i can understand what she's saying about securing the baby's spot for day care, which is why she set it at 855. Assuming he's telling the truth about making 24k a year, he's probably a bartender/ waiter... He's not going to get health insurance for the kid because those occupations normally have those types of benefits. So I find it unfair to set the fee even higher... Let's all say it: that lady was only there to get more money.
I legit went back multiple times just so I can hear the '' Just because I make more money then him , doesn't mean I should be covering all the child's expenses '' ! Has this woman been living under ,a rock or something ???? This is how it has been FOR THE GUYS / Fathers and even worse for millionaires for dacades now . This was the 2nd video I watched about this judge have no idea how even the 1st one got on my recomended but I know I will not watch any more since I find her ruling to be really bad or just how easy to abuse the laws in the US are and how BAD they are towards fathers or even in more particular the male portion of the population . I legit feel sorry for you guys over there !
Daycare is insanely expensive in USA. Here in Sweden we have a cap at max 150$ a month for the first child. The max cap for all the children in a family is 300$ a month.
I know somebody who is going through a bit of an ordeal with his "baby-mama" and I thought it would be a good scenario for your show! The guy and girl become friends after meeting at work. She feels bad for him sleeping in his car and offers him a place to stay. A few months later, she becomes pregnant. Quickly realizes he isn't much of a hard worker & sees that he likes living off & taking the credit for other's hard earned work. While living with her family during her pregnancy, he convinces them all that they will all come out ahead in the long run if he doesn't sign the birth certificate when the baby is born. Tells them that they will get Medicaid, nobody will have to reimburse since baby will be considered "fatherless", and in turn he will be able to pay more to the mother's "shopping habits" since he won't have to repaying the government through child support if they don't end up staying together. Baby boy is born, and even carries father's last name & is a "junior". Father never signed birth certificate, nor did he show up for the birth of the child. Time passes & the ordeal of him not showing up at the hospital was hardly spoken on, the 2 finally decide that they aren't meant for each other. He still can't keep a job, starts staying out more often with friends, eventually detaches himself from her household completely. Baby boy is now around 6 years old, dad misses seeing his son, and starts to contact mom to initiate some type of contact with his son that hardly knows him. Mom says that he needs to start helping out financially in some way, because the $20 here and $30 there isn't putting nothing on the table, nor gas in the tank. Mother is now fed up and says if he wants to see his son, that he must "sign the birth certificate" the right way, AKA Paternity Test etc... He gets his feelings hurt and starts to remind baby mama of all they had agreed on and how it would help them out in the long run if he wasn't officially the legal father on paper because now it will only come hurt him worse because they will make him reimburse all expenses as "backpay" and assumes this can all be avoided by leaving everything as is, once again reminding her that could be money for her to go shopping with.. Continues to ask her to allow him to see his son without making anything "legal" while she continues working a full time job, still living with her parents. The father is now a well known"couch-surfer" staying at different houses every night for a little to nothing fee and seems to really enjoy it, looks more like a hobby now. If he does get any type of job, he does his best to find people that will pay him under the table to hide his pay. Now I would like to see this type of scenario played out on your show! Goes pretty far in depth but I think it would be a good one! And couldn't imagine what you would have to say to the dead beat dad for convincing baby mama that he was only doing them a favor by not having him legally "sign the birth certificate"! Thank you!
This judge needs to step down,the man is paying three times what is required and you still penalise the man with the insurance cost. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Judge Vonda B, the man is taking initiative to help support his child and you call him a fool for that? This man could have just as easily denied claims of his child. Instead he stepped up to do the right thing and you gut him for that? There is a special place in hell reserved for you.
Given he was ALREADY paying WELL in excess of what he is required, and given his income, making him pay the additional for insurance reimbursement was unfair.
This is the first time I disagree with her ruling. He’s already been paying three times what he is obligated too and she tacked on medical too. That’s just not fair at all.
I think what would of been more appropriate for him to pay is the child support amount that he should be paying (300 something) and health insurance. So it would be roughly $500ish a month? Idk I just dont agree with him paying almost $1000 a month when he only makes $24,000 a year, parents need food, clothes, heat etc too. I usually agree with Vonda, but in this case I do not..
Wrist disabled Writer She’s been paying it for a year. Under Texas law, the noncustodial parent is the obligor of health insurance. Therefore, he has to reimburse her.
@@JudgeVondaB lol but isnt that the agreement. Under state law, he should be paying 300 something a month. So its ok to infringe up on a agreement when its in her favor but not when its in his favor?
GUYS be smart and don’t get drunk and start leaving your seeds in the wrong land. It’s expensive! If you don’t have money to support yourself and you want to avoid a case like this, don’t have unprotected sex, or have a vasectomy.
Support Court with Judge Vonda B., I’d like to know why you added the medical insurance, knowing he was already paying twice what he should’ve been paying? The woman, mother, was trying to find a way to make him pay more and you fell for it! A real judge would have lowered his payments and then added the medical insurance. You were totally wrong in this situation!
@@sherrydepew8815 she isn't a real judge she is the reason men don't take responsibility if I get someone pregnant I'm going to disappear because of people like her she isn't even a judge he needs to take this to a real court maybe get done a little better
I have watched a few of these now and they have always seemed to end in a fair decision. From what I know of this type of court that is not normally the case. It had me thinking that this was scripted to try and hide the inequality that is standard in court. This is the first video to show reality. A guy already paying more than he should and living a compromised life to afford to give that support, is mandated to pay even more. This is why men lose everything and go to jail for child support.
Unfair ruling. He should've just been ordered to pay what he was suppose to. And it would've been up to HIS PREFERENCE whether he wants to add into it as a Father.
Yeah... they did this man really dirty. He's paying WAY above his means in child support and is drastically sacrificing parts of his life to do it. He's finding roommates, shopping thrift whenever he goes out, and is eating TV dinners hurting his health. He did this because he felt like he needed to do more to make up for the year that he missed, but he only makes 24,000/year. Daycare is expensive, I get that... but if shit hits the fan and he can't find a roommate situation in the future, what happens then? If he hits any hurdle in employment or has a medical issue... what happens then? This was an extremely unfair ruling. The mother just wanted to hurt him at this point.
He’s lying
@@DCfan6767 thing about that is that the burden of proof is on the party attempting to incur higher payments. If he is lying and it comes out then that's what perjury is intended to cover.
Facts, and she still hasn't allowed him to see his son, c'mon now, the judge was being ridiculous.
@@Mooe-cb6bv How you know? She hasn't ALLOWED him to see his son? When she came to court she wanted him to pay to do so,her words he wants to be dad well he can pay child support. One has nothing to do with the other.
Exactly she is rude and still mad that the relationship is gone. I'm usually for these rulings but as a mother who was wrongfully everything done I have sat on both sides of to he bench and hate this for him.
45% is too much. And he NEVER said he was comfortably paying that amount. This is ridiculous
He was living with other people to make the payment, I don't agree with this, just because the lady said he was lying on his taxes, she can't assure that because she doesn't even know him, just because he agreed to pay that much to get some kind of right make it seem like not wanting to know anything about your child will do better for you
Having to eat off tv dinners is nbot proof he is comfortably able to pay all the daycare cost. Tv dinners are not a wel balanced meal. Hie health is going to suffer.
Hes self employed hes not telling the truth on his income as he would never survive
Unless you’re a multi millionaire I don’t think anyone could comfortably do this
IF that's what he makes a year
I found my husband a VERY nice suit at a thrift store for $15. Him having a nice suit is an absolutely ridiculous reason to think he makes more money
My sons and his wife Wr t to Goodwill for him a sport coat for a wedding. For pants & coat $12.50. The baby Mama sucks.
It is especially with 2nd hand stores out there
Agreed I went to a charity shop in the rich area of where I live and got my husband a very very nice suit for £20
I kind of get it. If you don't know enough or where to look, hearing he got it at a big discount would be hard to believe.
He should have used a condom.
I'm so glad I clicked these comments and see the same outrage I feel, myself. This was insane. Sure he was decent enough to pay that entire daycare cost...So WHY on earth make him also responsible for reimbursing health insurance? This rules was ridiculous and frustrating. She literally punished him for his decency.
Ever wonder why in modern day men dont want kids no more? This vile woman did this out of spite not love for the child.... and the judge said yea thats cool.....
@@themanwithnoname1839 Unpopular opinion here-
I always believed since women get the choice of birthing or aborting the child, with no say from the dad then it's only fair men get the choice of financially supporting the child. Takes two to create the child yet only 1 actually has any real say over the child.
So I don’t think he is telling the full truth. Because he does his own documents and works for himself it’s pretty easy to put how much you earn under certain amount. It’s also really odd that he makes right under $25,000 a year. It’s odd because a lot or tax and government assistance work for those under $25,000 a year because generally that is considered the poverty line. Etc. I just think something is suspicious.
@@wildfirefly22 the federal poverty line is like 16,500 a year actually. But you can still get a lot of other benefits from the state as long as you're under 25k. There's no way to know if he's lying or not though, could be. 🤷♀️ I still think he's paying plenty of support though even if he was fudging the numbers a bit.
The thing I don't like is she said she earns considerably more than him, and doesn't mention the hours she does each week, or how much she earns. Then it's daycare which means the child is in there while she works, so couldn't they come up with a custody situation where he looks after the child - not paying daycare, and hands back to the mum when she comes home, as the child obviously cannot stay over.
The judge admitted he was already paying more than he should and still raised it. That's pretty fucked up. I usually agree with her rulings but this was bogus as hell
It's Texas law that's messed. If the judge had lowered it, mom could have appealed. Dad messed up by offering paying that much. Even in other states, I've seen judges go with what the parents have already been doing even it it's more than what the calculations show. It's dumb; however, it that's what they've been paying without issue, that's what the judge goes with.
This is the first ruling I disagree with
This is why I only mess with MILF's.

The child support system in this country is a scam and needs to be restructured. It encourages family separation and is susepable to fraud. Maryland courts will make you pay daycare and insurance on top of child support.

He needs to immediately file for a reduction. He’s been impoverishing himself to provide support beyond his means.

No, he's already paying this amount. Were you watching the same show that I watched.?
@@sierraanderson8149and he’s living in poverty
I feel like he should be able to claim hardship. It's odd that Judge Vonda did this. It was bad enough that she didn't reduce it but then she actually RAISED it for the health insurance? That woman is getting him to pay the lion's share when he's not the custodial parent. That's so wrong.
I disagree with this ruling, the guy can't even afford his own place. This is crazy

Wow. And they wonder why a lot of fathers are scared to step up and try to be a part of a child’s life. I feel so bad for this guy.
Condoms
He got screwed. Seems unfair. Judge said he was paying it "comfortably" but he wasn't. He was living with roommates and eating TV dinners.
if he's living with roomates and eating TV dinners at his age.......
Exactly, thats not comfy living and did she even bother to consider if he wants visitation a stable place for the child to live/sleep? Similar life as mother offers? This is why fathers need to be careful, people claim that fathers get equal treatment but this case showed exactly the issues in family court. If he took her back because he was struggling could he get it to be calculated fairly? The mom clearly was holding money in with visitation, she said it and the judge didnt even tell her two separate subjects
Exactly.
😮 Wooooooooooow!! 😮
My mind is in a tornado of thoughts while my heart aches for that man.
How can a judge contradict they’re own words. You pay three times too much but legally pay some more. Unbelievable.
My heart aches for the kid. Kids who need clothes and to eat. Two parents made him and two parents need to care for him. I, the taxpayer, is tired of paying for irresponsibility. He goes to go out and get a new job. He has a kid.
This is where her experience in the court comes into play
As I watched this i saw the same thing I’ve seen in court while waiting for my own case to come up
Many of the dads make choices to keep their income low and make claims of poverty but can find the money for fun things. Things like vacations, dates, the bar, gym memberships, new cars.
But then claim being broke and can’t pay for the kids.
He looks to be in his 40s. He can afford to go out but can’t afford his life or any kids?
Something doesn’t add up. It just feels off.
But besides that point. He set a status quo. Legally she can ask for that to be maintained and for him to pay for his portion of the kids.
Just because she had paid while he was uncooperative doesn’t mean it was comfortable for her either. They didn’t go into it but she may have been struggling as well and needs help so she can house and feed the kid they made.
She can’t be on the hook for most of it because he makes poor financial choices. All of that is extraneous to parenting responsibilities.
this is seriously fucked up, ESPECIALLY after seeing how amazing and fair the judge has been all the other times, this was just cruel
I agree. I was shock when it was increased. Paying more than half your salary. He can’t even get a car
Prime examples how a generous man can gets srewed. That is all I'm saying
She only added in insurance which always make the parent not carrying the child pay back. Then she told him how to get out of paying that by adding the child to his insurance.
She is only doing what the law allows her to do. If the dad petitioned the court to lower the cs then she could have done that but since he didn’t she couldn’t do anything. And the person who pays cs always has to pay the health insurance,
I totally disagree with you Vonda, in the best interest of the child the mother should continue with paying the health insurance. Gracious dad is paying almost half his monthly salary. That was a very unfair ruling.
He’s been paying it.
Support Court with Judge Vonda B. what difference does that make he could have been selling off his own stuff to make enough to pay it and ran out, you took advantage of a man who didn't know what he was legally responsible to pay ,I have been getting child support for 3 years the mother owes me for 8 years over 30 grand and I would never expect her to pay over 50 percent of her income to catch up on back child support, if that was a real case it would have been a very wrong ruling
Josh Henderson It’s not a judge’s job to give a litigant legal advice. Him selling off assets has nothing to do with his income.
mike scott LOL
Support Court with Judge Vonda B. wrong it is the judges job when setting-up a child support pay schedule to make sure the payments can be met with the income of the person paying, this could never be a real ruling , I understand your not a real judge and these cases are just entertainment but you should at least try to stick to reality
This ruling confirms that "no good deed goes unpunished " especially when it involves a woman

Dealing with these BMTs
Right? You're paying 850, which is almost 3x what you're supposed to be paying. Now you have to pay 968. Why? Just because! In what world does that make any sense? He should be paying less with that income, but you know F E M I N I S M.
This goes to show, if you help out of the goodness of your heart, there will always be a way someone can screw you over. If she wants help, he should have told this broad to put him on childsupport INSTEAD of offering to pay such an outrageous bill. Reason being; No matter what they say, they WILL put you on childsupport and anything you do to help in the past will come back and bite you.
I don't agree with her judgement...
He is paying way more in excess of what child support would be calculated out to be...
Voluntarily....
Then she threw insurance on top...
He should refile for adjusted child support.. And base it on his income...
Goes to show... When you try to be nice
Someone's going to shit on you
I seconded that, This was a bad judgement. The judge should had lower his payment because he is paying more than someone who makes twice as much. This is why most men do the least to come out on top thanks for the life lesson. Now more kids are going to suffer because of this type of judgment.
Thats fup
With the excess of overpayment of his child support why is he having to pay for the health insurance? He's already paying the health insurance in the cost of the daycare. This is a prime example to him needing an attorney. I would have said, "no let me pay what is the state's payment scale based on my income."
It should be the simple calculation as usually mentioned. Its understood that hes been paying 500 per month over the estimate. This is a decision that warrants men going their own way and not having kids with women. And, birth rates are going down dramatically. Its a simple calculation for men to make such decisions in todays society.
The problem is they made a deal, he covers day care, she forgoes CS from him. If it was them splitting expenses, CS being part of that, the judge could have adjusted that based on his pay. He is volunteering to pay the higher FIXED amount of day care to not be in child support, VARIABLE. Since he is self employed, this may have been wise, even if he is filing taxes and actually only making that much, having that fixed expense and her having agreed to it, she can't keep coming back month after month saying he makes more, make him pay more and him have all that hassle and a accountant proving he did only make that much. Sometimes its worth paying more to avoid hassle. I agree that 1/2 your pay is too much, but he volunteered that and a court can't order you to un-volunteer and force you to pay less.
This is the ONE time I don’t agree with her ruling. He’s already paying 3 times his required amount so adding insurance was WRONG.
Agree
Go watch the episode with the pool guy, it's stupid.
I agree but I believe he was lying about his wages though
@@sheneathahollowell2750kinda late to the convo but if he was lying that should be its own case . her job was just to work with the info she was given not what she thinks it is. i do believe he's lying tho
This was really unfair for this man. Just because he's paying that amount doesn't mean he's not struggling, which clearly he is.
Wow, so mom got what she wanted and got MORE money. Good lesson to learn, DO NOT start giving money or paying expenses until you know your rights and responsibilities. The same applies to visitation, get everything in writing so it is clear and there are no misunderstandings.

I’ve seen personally cases in Texas where the dad was volunteering a amount higher than obligated and the judge lowered it as it should be and ordered the mom to reimburse the dad. Point is this judge is full of shit on this case
I only started binge watching these today and this is the first one I think is really unfair. He was paying that 8something out of the goodness of his heart and now he has to struggle further for trying to be a good dad. I hope he appeals this and gets a better ruling. The mother is also horrendous to let this happen as well.
Same
Me too🎉🎉
I think it’s perfectly fair. He skated on his responsibilities for a year to lower his taxes thinking he wouldn’t have to pay as much in child support. He’s a grown ass man and you’re telling me he can’t find a job that pays more than $11.54 an hour? She got knocked up celebrating his promotion, and he dipped after he found out she was pregnant. I see this all the time. Men literally quit high paying jobs to avoid a court order, lower their income, get the bare minimum and then once it’s in place go back to his high earnings
@@theoneandonlymvd 🤔 🤨 umm yeah that makes no sense. If that was the case then all have to do is go back to curt & ask to increase in child support based on the new income.
@@millertime28290 it doesn’t make sense to you because you think oh we’ll just go back to court. Getting an adjustment isn’t that easy and when you’re “self employed” taxes can be reduced for literally anything. He’ll be able to write off the day care because it’s an “expense occurred in order to work”.
Wow, there’s no way he is to pay that amount on a very, very low income! My child’s dad makes $80,000 and he only pays $600 a month 🤦🏻♀️ I am baffled at this ruling and it’s not fair for the father whatsoever. The mother makes more money than him and he is trying to do right by his child. This is more than a punishment rather than a fair ruling for both parties. What a shame! He needs to have a second hearing with a different judge or get an attorney.
He makes 80k and is only paying 600?! Something is off about that
She really could’ve dismissed this case. I usually agree with her rulings but this one was really mind boggling. Like I can’t understand why she increased the amount?
It's mind boggling that he said he wants to pay more than he has to and the judge let him? Some men want to take care of their kids. What's the issue?
So lemme get this straight, the dad pays the daycare fully and the mom was paying the health insurance fully by now he pays partially the health insurance and STILL the full day care? wow
@@minxymoo2325 did you even wat h the video? He was paying way more than he could afford and then the judge increased the amount to make it even more ridiculous...
I support and love this judge but this ruling is foul! To admit that he’s paying more than he should then raise it under the assumption that he’s been paying it comfortably after he admits to all the assistance he require is truly foul…
So why not SUBTRACT the $113 from the $855 he's already overpaying so that he's covering most of the daycare expense and ALL of the health insurance since he's already overpaying? He's already overpaying and she's making more than he is! If the roles were reversed the outrage to this ruling would be insane!
She kept asking the chick what she wants her to do🤔
She wanted the judge to bully him and this judgment did just that! 😒
I can't believe the judge did that to him. If he was paying $200 a month to the mother in child support the judge would have made him pay more. He earn less but the judge is still going to make him pay more. When the mother brings receipts for items she purchased for the child that father has to pay for half of it. When the father brings receipts for items he purchased for the child it is a gift and he gets no credit for it.
I disagree with this ruling. He is already struggling to pay daycare, that he willing agreed to pay. Mom makes more money and should continue to pay the health insurance. Having the daycare paid for is a huge financial relief for her already. She can handle the $113 that automatically comes out of her paycheck
2 years later, I really hope this father is doing good. This really wasn’t fair to the father to give up what little money he had.

Judge is bugging adding the insurance into his payment. He's already paying 3 times the amount the court would grant her typically.

Texas law. That's what happened. Texas likes to screw fathers in court. Had he not agreed to that amount she would've only gotten the $355 because otherwise she has to prove that he can afford it. Which she can't given the cost of living. The court would've had no way to do that. But because he was bamboozled by this woman into paying that and has been for a bit that means the courts can say "You're making it work so continue to pay." What gets me is that she had the audacity to make him pay health insurance. She should've said that's too much hardship. Now because he has to pay that he will probably not be able to eat or pay rent. That will lead to him going homeless at which point he will take it to court and claim hardship. Whatever judge he gets will review Judge Vonda's judgment and tell her that she was being biased. You heard what she said. She said she had the DISCRETION to assign higher benefits. That means it's her choice. She didn't have to do that. She did that because he's the father. A lot of judges are in favor of mothers. Usually Judge Vonda is pretty good at being fair towards fathers but maybe she had a case that disturbed her right before. I think this one needs to be reviewed. If I were the father, I'd appeal the decision.

I don’t think she’s scamming him. His tax returns are obviously prepared to his advantage. And she knows he’s not broke. So legally he should be paying 20% of what he really makes not what he chooses to report to the government. And based on well common sense he’s scamming her. That’s why he agreed to the $850 a month. He can more than afford that. If anything based on his attitude it’s junk change to him. He should want to have his offspring live the life that he’s living. Not limit it.
@@d2dag5 since when does money raise the child? I was a single parent for years on top of years and it never took 850 a month to raise my lil girl. What does giving the mom or dad,(whoever has custody)more money do with the life that he's living? 50/50.
@@porkbeats the law says 20%. Point blank period. And I would think and hope every parent wants the best they can provide for their child. Yes you can definitely raise a child on a tighter budget.

Very responsible. My sister’s father is 53 and refuses to get a vasectomy, yet doesn’t want to care for the children he has or the ones that may come in the future
Very unfair ruling by the judge, him paying $855 should be voluntary, the court has no right to force him to pay 50% of his income. The man can't even afford housing for himself.
I can't believe she even ADDED more expenses to his already too high payments. This judge got it awfully wrong.
This is the one so far that just was depressing, man struggled to pay for day care. He then had to be legally made to struggle instead of having the law step in and saying he was over paying every month so far. At the start of this the judge was wondering if she was sure she’d want to risk losing extra money, then she GAVE her 113 more.
Why is the father responsible for “all” of the daycare? That’s insane!
He did that on his own, but I don't agree with the ruling. I think the judge should have dialed it back a bit.
I disagree with this ruling. Just because he has been paying more doesn't mean he should continue. Also, if he already paying more. Why make him reimburse health care. Absurd
Dude got ripped! He's already over paying thru the nose and then you add insurance, what the hell?
If you look at it he's going to just continue to pay the day care. So he's really not paying child support. He's just repaying the health insurance.

This was a bad ruling, on her part. I'm kinda surprised . I think the fact that he has been making extraordinary sacrifices in order to give the mother 45% of his income, should have been taken into account, especially if normal child support is 20%. I hope he was able to appeal this ruling
Feel sorry for the father and the way the decision was come to, he has pretty much handed over 50 percent all he earns and yet that still wasnt enough. Madness
He got screwed in the end. Should have never told the judge that he would pay the daycare. Deny, Deny, next time! Coluld have walked out paying the 340 dollars plus med services.
I don't understand why she didn't just make his child support 400 plus the health insurance. This basically just made his life harder because he was a good person. Stepping up got punished 😢.
Gandalf- "I want to be a better man, own up to my mistakes, take responsibility and hopefully have a relationship with my child. I give 45% of my income willingly which equates to 3x the amount I should pay in child support because I want to do the right thing."
Judge- "True, tv dinners and roommates are rough, let's add reimbursing that insurance in addition!"

Wow that's amazing 200 points after child support wow! 😱😱😱.
😂😂😂😂 In the words of the judge.. Congratulations!
Then you must have been in arrears at one time. Typical child support doesn’t appear on credit reports.
@@joytoyouandme4593
You do understand that was a joke right ? 🤔
He may have been manipulating his income but this judgement is no fair. This man just like other guests should be allowed to pay the fair amount based off his salary. That's the $355
I actually feel sorry for the dude. He paid more than he should have, and because of it he's gonna live in a shared appartement until his retirement and beyond. I know it's the law and all but.... If I was a father I would understand this as: give the bare minimum at all times or you might get screwed over later.
This is crazy! She added 100 on to what he was already struggling to pay. Man! Then the judge smiled
I like how the judge assumed he was comfortably making payments. If a judge has the power to just throw the guidelines out the window then how are we supposed to trust the laws and the rules that govern these things??
Comfortably making payments? I wonder what would indicate a struggle? Maybe he should relocate to under a nearby bridge
I disagree with that because if his income by the set standards say he is suppose to pay a lesser amount, then he should have to only pay that with the insurance expense added.
Check with Texas law, that is the law the Judge is upholding. It is fair and just to both parties. He has limited income and is paying for the daycare, same amount as it would be for Child support for one child. You can't have everything.
Startrek1965,
If you listened the, so called judge, she stated that his child support would be around $380.00 a month based on his income of $24,000.00 a year. But because he was already paying $855.00 for daycare that he should continue doing that! What the, so called, judge did wrong was adding the $113.00 for medical insurance. If you would read other comments, the so called, judge reply’s to some comments! Vonda B is not a real judge, she’s a lawyer who works with people who hire her to get the other parent to pay more money to her clients.
@@sherrydepew8815 Look I listened and heard. And its my right to disagree. Have a great day
LauraThe Virgo,
I’m agreeing with you! My comment was for Startrek1965, not you!!!
@@sherrydepew8815 I'm sorry I thought Starttrek was talking to me like that. Have a great day.
"Well you were happy paying 850 so why not 1k?" "No I was struggling to pay 850 in the hopes of being allowed to see my son but that's clearly not gonna happen until she gets everything."
This woman wants a 2nd pay cheque and not child support, her demeanour in the court shows that, especially when she wanted him to pay even more than what he owes, and the fact she’s upset he is directly paying the daycare rather than her!!!
Hi Judge l think that she should have grateful for daycare being paid. $133.00 he should not have to pay. He has to eat and pay his bills too.🤦
Right it was the “you’ve been comfortably paying it already” how do you know that ma’am? I don’t like this at all.
So she really didn’t see a case where the mom should be splitting that day care bill? Wild.
She actually is breaking the law by refusing the father to have visitation. It has nothing to do with child support. The law says he has visitation.
I got really weird vibes from this entire case. Laying out a year and then stepping up makes it seem like he waited to get a favorable tax return. If he does only make 24k, then the ruling was practically criminal. The lady seemed greedy in that case. He would need to bring a suit for joint custody and get the support removed. That might be better for the kid anyway. The nice thing is the daycare bills will go down as the child gets older.
this is why I came to the comments
Right, but knowing that mom, as soon as daycare goes down, she’ll find some other way to bleed him dry! 😒😔
I think he is less than truthful as well. Favorable is a good word.😊
THANK YOU. Everyone was acting like a victim, and I found it so hard to believe he only made 24k a year. The whole thing was fishy, and i I thought the judge politely let him know
This mother is literally negotiating this man access to his child based on what he pays. Girl take him paying daycare and shut up. I’m so confused if he would only be paying $340 then why his he paying $855 and healthcare. If I was him I’d be like no legally I only have to pay child support and health insurance and I believe it’s only half of health insurance. I do not agree with this ruling at all
The worst ruling I have ever heard. It incentivizes parents who do not have custody to do the bare minimum and does not reward those who step up.
I feel the ruling was totally unfair for this man. He was already paying more than double what he was supposed to…
"I don't have a law degree, I don't have a lawyer, I don't know how these things work" That's why you NEED A LAWYER!
Lawyers cost money
@@BeccasaurousRex270cheaper than 968 per month for 18 years
First ruling I have disagreed with. Utterly shocked. Even when he questioned it, the judge doubled down.
Almost like he was punished because he already took the initiative to start paying for things.
Girl you know you were wrong as hell for this verdict.
She was being greedy. Very disappointing wish she would have made them split it.
Glad I am not the only one who is upset with this ruling. If she wanted to be fair, she should’ve lowered the child support to the state figure amount, then added the 1/2 of the insurance amount.
I don’t agree either‼️The guy got rooked & he knew it. He didn’t act the fool though👌🏽, I’ll say that for him. Rockin beard too💪🏽
That’s crazy the judge is allowed to “deviate” from what he should lawfully pay for good reason that means it’s allowing the opinion from judge to judge to come up with higher amounts if they so feel like it
Now look at that SAME scenario in criminal courts. Yep..
I respectfully disagree because he's paying 3times the amount, which in my eyes he's essentially paying back the time he was missing. At the same time i can understand what she's saying about securing the baby's spot for day care, which is why she set it at 855. Assuming he's telling the truth about making 24k a year, he's probably a bartender/ waiter... He's not going to get health insurance for the kid because those occupations normally have those types of benefits. So I find it unfair to set the fee even higher... Let's all say it: that lady was only there to get more money.
I legit went back multiple times just so I can hear the '' Just because I make more money then him , doesn't mean I should be covering all the child's expenses '' ! Has this woman been living under ,a rock or something ???? This is how it has been FOR THE GUYS / Fathers and even worse for millionaires for dacades now .
This was the 2nd video I watched about this judge have no idea how even the 1st one got on my recomended but I know I will not watch any more since I find her ruling to be really bad or just how easy to abuse the laws in the US are and how BAD they are towards fathers or even in more particular the male portion of the population .
I legit feel sorry for you guys over there !
When child starts school I'll be back at court.
Daycare is insanely expensive in USA. Here in Sweden we have a cap at max 150$ a month for the first child. The max cap for all the children in a family is 300$ a month.
So glad you are back, missed you and your wisdom and understanding.
We are back for Season 2!! What do you think about the new intro and outro?

@@JudgeVondaB I think it looks great!! Coming on up & it looks professional!!
StR8uP254 Great, glad you like it!!
Ok I was rocking with you Judge until this case!! This seemed very unfair.
I don’t think he should have to pay health insurance seeing he’s already paying so much in child care and that’s 45% if his income! So unfair!
This just goes to show how screwed up child support laws are! What a joke. He has to live with nothing while mom gets what she wants
Basically never pay more than needed because being the good person wont help you if you have to go to court...sad but true.
This is absolutely ridiculous! I hope he goes to a real judge with a lawyer.
I know somebody who is going through a bit of an ordeal with his "baby-mama" and I thought it would be a good scenario for your show!
The guy and girl become friends after meeting at work. She feels bad for him sleeping in his car and offers him a place to stay. A few months later, she becomes pregnant. Quickly realizes he isn't much of a hard worker & sees that he likes living off & taking the credit for other's hard earned work.
While living with her family during her pregnancy, he convinces them all that they will all come out ahead in the long run if he doesn't sign the birth certificate when the baby is born. Tells them that they will get Medicaid, nobody will have to reimburse since baby will be considered "fatherless", and in turn he will be able to pay more to the mother's "shopping habits" since he won't have to repaying the government through child support if they don't end up staying together.
Baby boy is born, and even carries father's last name & is a "junior". Father never signed birth certificate, nor did he show up for the birth of the child.
Time passes & the ordeal of him not showing up at the hospital was hardly spoken on, the 2 finally decide that they aren't meant for each other. He still can't keep a job, starts staying out more often with friends, eventually detaches himself from her household completely.
Baby boy is now around 6 years old, dad misses seeing his son, and starts to contact mom to initiate some type of contact with his son that hardly knows him. Mom says that he needs to start helping out financially in some way, because the $20 here and $30 there isn't putting nothing on the table, nor gas in the tank. Mother is now fed up and says if he wants to see his son, that he must "sign the birth certificate" the right way, AKA Paternity Test etc... He gets his feelings hurt and starts to remind baby mama of all they had agreed on and how it would help them out in the long run if he wasn't officially the legal father on paper because now it will only come hurt him worse because they will make him reimburse all expenses as "backpay" and assumes this can all be avoided by leaving everything as is, once again reminding her that could be money for her to go shopping with.. Continues to ask her to allow him to see his son without making anything "legal" while she continues working a full time job, still living with her parents. The father is now a well known"couch-surfer" staying at different houses every night for a little to nothing fee and seems to really enjoy it, looks more like a hobby now. If he does get any type of job, he does his best to find people that will pay him under the table to hide his pay.
Now I would like to see this type of scenario played out on your show! Goes pretty far in depth but I think it would be a good one! And couldn't imagine what you would have to say to the dead beat dad for convincing baby mama that he was only doing them a favor by not having him legally "sign the birth certificate"!
Thank you!
StR8uP254,
This most definitely would be a great scenario for “Support Court” with Vonda B.
This episode just goes to show never offer a lot of/for anything ever, because you'll always be asked /have to give more
Judge was definitely wrong for this one no way he should be paying that much
Dam,
Pack your bags bro, leave the country
This judge needs to step down,the man is paying three times what is required and you still penalise the man with the insurance cost. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Ha! He should be ashamed for paying something he can’t “afford” every month. And, admitting it in court.😁
@@JudgeVondaB 🤣🤣 great comeback, at least he is honest and is willing to take care of his kid.
Rasta Buggie I agree with you there!
Texas child support is some bs smh.
Judge Vonda B, the man is taking initiative to help support his child and you call him a fool for that? This man could have just as easily denied claims of his child. Instead he stepped up to do the right thing and you gut him for that? There is a special place in hell reserved for you.
Given he was ALREADY paying WELL in excess of what he is required, and given his income, making him pay the additional for insurance reimbursement was unfair.
This is the first time I disagree with her ruling.
He’s already been paying three times what he is obligated too and she tacked on medical too. That’s just not fair at all.
How the hell can that be fair
I think what would of been more appropriate for him to pay is the child support amount that he should be paying (300 something) and health insurance. So it would be roughly $500ish a month? Idk I just dont agree with him paying almost $1000 a month when he only makes $24,000 a year, parents need food, clothes, heat etc too. I usually agree with Vonda, but in this case I do not..
so being gracious and over compensating has nothing to do with any of it?! Nothing! So basically the system has become the husband to these moms.
This judge should be removed from the bench. Absolutely outrageous behavior.
Gold digging hoe from that ad
That mom was crap. She kept talking over the judge and taking cheap shots at the dad.
Why should he pay daycare and medical if he’s child support would be 400 not 900
He’s been paying it.
Support Court with Judge Vonda B. I meant why add medical
Wrist disabled Writer She’s been paying it for a year. Under Texas law, the noncustodial parent is the obligor of health insurance. Therefore, he has to reimburse her.
@@JudgeVondaB lol but isnt that the agreement. Under state law, he should be paying 300 something a month. So its ok to infringe up on a agreement when its in her favor but not when its in his favor?
t t No. He agreed to pay daycare at $850 per month and had been paying it for the past 8 months.
Wow. I guess "dad" spells "atm." That was one of the most irrational, unfair things I've ever seen.
GUYS be smart and don’t get drunk and start leaving your seeds in the wrong land.
It’s expensive! If you don’t have money to support yourself and you want to avoid a case like this, don’t have unprotected sex, or have a vasectomy.
Vonda B is an awful judge she should lower his payment to 300+ the insurance.
LOL
@@JudgeVondaB Never trust any women or court system your a damn 2 for 1
Bruce Wayne It’s “you’re” but ok.😂
Support Court with Judge Vonda B.,
I’d like to know why you added the medical insurance, knowing he was already paying twice what he should’ve been paying? The woman, mother, was trying to find a way to make him pay more and you fell for it! A real judge would have lowered his payments and then added the medical insurance. You were totally wrong in this situation!
@@sherrydepew8815 she isn't a real judge she is the reason men don't take responsibility if I get someone pregnant I'm going to disappear because of people like her she isn't even a judge he needs to take this to a real court maybe get done a little better
I have watched a few of these now and they have always seemed to end in a fair decision. From what I know of this type of court that is not normally the case. It had me thinking that this was scripted to try and hide the inequality that is standard in court. This is the first video to show reality.
A guy already paying more than he should and living a compromised life to afford to give that support, is mandated to pay even more. This is why men lose everything and go to jail for child support.
Unfair ruling. He should've just been ordered to pay what he was suppose to. And it would've been up to HIS PREFERENCE whether he wants to add into it as a Father.
I feel sorry for the man especially making $24,000
