Why do men ALWAYS get the bad end of the deal in a divorce.

Why in america is Alimony, child custody, and so on always in the women's favor? My friends ex wife not only is getting over half his paycheck in child support, but took his children from him. And the courts let her despite the fact that shes schizophrenic and violent. I think if the father is there for his children child support should not be allowed, and alimony is a joke. As a HUMAN women or not you should be responsible for taking care of yourself. I have worked since i was 14 everything i have is because i worked for it. it makes me mad that a women can marry a man she doesn't love, then take him for everything he has worked for. Dont get me wrong if your man wants to take care of you by all means go for it, but to simply marry a man as a way to get thru life is ridiculous. Then to bring kids in the mix and use them as a weapon is even worse. This is why im not married. you cant trust that the other person doesnt have an angle. I think women Have proved there more than housewives. We have fought to be equal to men in America There for i think we should have to support ourselves as men do to.

You're preaching to the choir! Not only did my mother clean my dad out, she seems determined to outlive him so she can get his pension too (I know that sounds mean, but we're pretty dysfunctional, all because of her.)
Nice topic.

Now a days i think that people should be able do distinguise who is apt or not to take care of their child. For some reason they always side with the mother and in some cases i think it is right but if the mother cant even take care of herself, why on earth would they let her take care of a child.
I dont get these judges. We depend on them making the right choice and they just make A choice that they think should be right without actually balancing the facts from both sides.

That is how the system works in many cases they think since the mother carried the child for 9 months and birthed them she has the rights.

So when she took the children from him he is no longer able to see them? i thought that if he is giving child support then he should be able to get them unless it is proven that he is un fit for the children. I have always worked up until i got with my husband. I was working still when he lost his job i went back to work and i ended up lossing that job and he went and got a job. I do not like the alimony thing.My husband has asked for me to stay home with the kids. He does not want me to woek if i want to then that is fine but he really does not want me to. When we were just dating we split up for a short time and when i was leaving i did not have a job and he gave me a little money to get by. I can see alimony but for say 1 month in this type of situation. That just gives her 1 month to find a job and be able to get on her feet. But other then that getting it every month is not right when you are married ok the man takes care of you but e has to take care of you even after you are divorced is not right. I could not live and know that my ex husband was taking care of me even after we were no longer together and be with another man.

She has full custody because she took the house in the divorce and he cant afford a big enough place for them to have there own room. There for if he wants to see then she has to be ok with it and she just flat out refuses. and he cant afford a lawyer to go back to court

@KayKayx0x Yes but not for ever. To me that is not right it does not take years to get back on your feet. I mean yeah she might not have a place to stay and needs help with that but that should be wrote out that way. I will help you find a place and pay this much to start with and anfter this time you will pay from then on and i will give you this much for 1 month so you can find a job and all of that. Most of the time though that if there are kids involved then the women gets the house due to having a place for the children to sleep.

Yeah if a Husband wants his wife to be a stay at home mom or what not he should have to help her get back on her feet if they get a divorce you are right.
