Where does one turn...?

user

I felt very moved by what you wrote in your letter. I had a little boy in 2003, his father gave me money to abort the baby. After I couldn't do it, I gave birth to him and took care of him. About the middle of 2004 I filed for child support. Ever since then, he has been dragging me through court trying to reduce his support payments. In June of 2008, I moved to a small southern town to give me and my children a more southern outlook on life and to enjoy the outdoors. Alot more than I could provide for them in the city. I now again was taken to court and since I didn't have the money for an attorney, my son's father won custody of him. I was heartbroken. Since my son was born, I was the one changing diapers, endless nights, doctor's appointments, day care bills, etc. Now my son's father, comes into his life after maybe seeing my son a whole 150 times in his life. Of course, it's easy now. My little boy is going into the 1st grade, all the hard work is done.

I stand behind you when you said to fight back and be as strong as you can. Your story made me feel like I am not the only one trying as hard as I can....

Thank you!! :)
