As for the maintenance part. GOOD FOR YOU FIGHTING!!! i would have fought tooth and nail against David for maintenance of Angel and i would have been with Lee and with him not wanting nothing to do with baby. He helped make the baby he can help bloody pay. There is nothing wrong with getting help and its not discpicable and using, he should have thought about that too when he had sex. Men have just as much responsibility as us, they can walk away (to some extent so can women) but why should they get away with it. Some people arent in the situation to be able to not ask for help.
Fair enough, if he going to be a part of the babies life but why should he be made to pay for child who he doesn't see?!
Too many men are shafted by women trying to get maintanance out them and it's wrong. Jon pays towards Evie and for that reason, if he wanted to, he could see her. If I didn't want him a part of her life at all I would be brave enough to say that I don't need his money and he can bugger off.[/quote:11wnio3k]
Sorry Jade but I do not agree with your statement.
If a man helps get a women pregnant but chooses to piss off then why shouldnt he pay?
He dam well should, why does that make the women look bad, it makes then look smart for not letting the man think he can help make a baby but step out of the life completely.
Why should it all be put on the mother who does everything.
You should not have pride when it comes to a situation like this.
