Rational response, yo.
Not that I condone in any way what he did but it's always struck me as strange how the absent father has to pay so much, yet a 'replacement' father can just waltz in and enjoy the fruits of someone else's labour. If you're taking on a family as the role of father shouldn't you contribute as well?

Depends on how highly you see the value in the animal like instinct to spread your own genes. Me personally, I would never want to raise someone else's kids and love the fact that mine are being raised by other people.

What on god's green earth are you talking about?
Dating someone with kids does not mean that you intend on being coming the replacement father figure. Even if you do end up getting with the mother on a long term basis that should not give the absent father to 'pass over the reins' for one second. If you're going to have kids it is your responsibility to pay for them, regardless of who your Ex now decides to knock boots with.
Even in the best scenarios a a Stepfather/mum's boyfriend should not be a replacement for the biological father. Love them as your own, long out for them, etc but don't try to 'replace'. I think the vast majority of men who go into relationships with single mothers understand and respect this.

Why on earth did you have kids??![]()

I think you've misunderstood me, my opinion is that if someone else moves in with your ex then some of the burden should be taken from you not all of it. The system seems to be slanted terribly towards the woman (and any future live in partner of hers).

But what he pays to the CSA does not go to your G/f. Your G/f will be no worse or better off...he is a prime retard

Nope, i can just understand why fathers get annoyed by the situations they are put in though.Is someone living with your baby mama and enjoying her and raising your kids or something, because that's a really strange opinion to have.
A bit ironic coming from banned 10 times from ocuk and father of the year 2011 don't you think?Even if that was a joke, it really does not read well or put you in a good light, free tip.

Our old next door neighbour was screwed like this in a big way, couldn't sell the old family home and some jobless waster ended up living in a house he was basically paying for.
So your happy to spread your seed and **** off to let someone else clean up the mess?
I was a sperm donor when the NHS ran out of sperm due to the legal changes that resulted in the loss of complete anonymity to the donaters. So yea, I wouldn't put it the way you did, but I made some couples very happy (I hope) if the thank you letters plastered all over the wall written to "Anonymous"
