Divorce Support Forums: DCS is my Enemy

I have been divorced now for three years. I have two children that I pay support for after being umemployed for about 18 months (back support).

I gave the ex and the children the paid for home and I left with some tools and a couple broken vehicles. As I am employed full time on my second job since my divorce, I still do not make enough to pay my monthly support due. I am short about $50 per month. I am also a musician that depends on gigs (employment as the state considers it) that get booked months in advance. The problem is that the state treats these gigs as employment and issues garnishment papers to club owners, who would rather not deal with the state so they drop me, fire me or whatever you want to call it. The state has hindered my music career which I have invested many years into. I have moved to and from several counties to try and establish soem income before the state gets involved, all the while while, tryign to maintain a relationship with my two children and incurring the cost of visitation travel. The mother has not once picked up or dropped off the children in three years.

I have had my license suspended due to back support. I am 50 years old and not looking at making much longer. I have very little fight left in me and not sure that back support will ever get caught up.

I have been making headway with my children. The mother finally asked me to help her deal with the kids as they are out of control. Well, she is the one out of control and I would like nothing better than to get her into court and have some judge spank her ass.

Why did I post this? I guess it takes time away from me thinking of violence directed toward some parties.

I can only hope that my children will grow up knowing that The states' laws suck and somehow the restrictions placed on their father by the state and their mother, have some how made me a better person for their sake.

WA DCS, you suck!
