my kids dad works full time and i hardly get anything from him. we have two kids who live with me. I havent been able to get a job for five fuckin months.i look for jobs almost every week. my mom is helpin me with my bills and the kids. I have to be on FS so my kids can have full bellies at breakfast lunch and dinner. I also live on housing. I was on financial assitance for a month and when dad got the notice i was on it he threw a bitch fit and started calling me names and was livid. so now i'm back to having nothing. he always says he will help with shit but never does or is broke even though he just got paid. he lives with his parents.. where does his money go?????????  aside from his phone bill and fines.  God do i WISH i got even 5 bucks a month. 100 would be a dream

I don't get any either. :/ I've just learned to be as self-sufficient as possible without it.

HE threw a fit and you just quit getting cash assistance who freakin cares if it bothers him....why did you stop getting it? Go reapply for that, and they will make sure he pays

Go to court. The CS I get for dd is taken right from her dads check each week and sent to me. Most states, I believe, just garnish the support, so then he would have no choice.

Go to child support enforcement.  Or if you haven't even gotten a court order start at family court.  100 dollars is ridiculous for one child.  Five dollars is ignorant to ask for.  Stop bitching and do something about your situation.

Yup. You can also go to womanslaw.org and look up your state. That's what I did but then opted to hire an advocate who accepts payment plans to fill out my documents.
