If a man was her sole source of support, then alimony is his responsibility even if for a short length of time until she can go to school, train for a career, and get established as a provider for the children he abandoned. And the same on the flipside. If a woman were in the same position, she should have to pay alimony to the man.
Child support is non-negotiable. If you are the parent, you pay for the child. Whether it was from a one-night stand, or a ten year committed marriage. The old expression, ';you fathered it, you feed it'; comes to mind.
And on the negligence issue, you have to have beyond a reasonable doubt and plus some proof!Why are cases involving negligence so hard to prove? Can you justify paying alimony/child support to a woman?
You have to prove that the person knowingly neglected someone/thing. Not that it was just a mistake. As for alimony, if you start out in 1 social/economical class %26amp; are higher when the marriage ends, the wife helped the husband get where he is %26amp; he owes her %26amp; has to keep her in the lifestyle she was in at the end of the marriage, not the beginning. Child support is for the kids. The money is for paying to raise them. Most husbands think that they only need to set up a college fund or a bank account to be used when they're grown. Support is paid to the Mom so she can pay the bills; electric, gas, water, rent/mortgage, food, clothes for NOW not later.
Who is to say the person is negligent. What is percieved as negligenence could just be a simple mistake that any one could make but because bitterness is involved it becomes negligence. What do you think should happen no support what so ever to raise a child or is every thing free in today's society.
