Dear Editor,
Allow me a little space to inform of what is going on with our children’s rights.
On the 26th of March I visited the Court of Guardianship for the second time this month as my children’s child support was still not showing up on my account. Last week I was told that their system was down and that this is something that happens very often.
The Court of Guardianship is supposed to be a regulatory entity, making sure that child support is paid, among other things, and yet here we are, the 26th of the month, no child support paid (it is to be paid the first week of the month) and at 11:45am on a Tuesday, no one present who can even answer to the system being up or not.
My children’s rights are being trampled upon, and this is not right, nor fair.
We are quick to react when faced with deadbeat fathers; how do we deal with a deadbeat system?
