Deadbeat Dads: Jail or Vasectomy

[jazz lady]

NEWPORT, Ky. - For some men showing up in court for being habitually behind in child support, their choice is jail or a vasectomy.

Family Court Judge D. Michael "Mickey" Foellger has given the option to a few men who had multiple children and were tens of thousands of dollars behind on their child support.

Foellger said he considers it an effective way to get his message across - that having children is a responsibility.

"If these children are in poverty because these guys are not paying their child support, I have no qualms about it," he said of his policy. "I don't think these men deserve to have any more children."

I hope they do sterilization for deadbeat moms, too.

I think that when your born everyone gets their tube thingies tied until you reach a certain level of responsibility they untie them and you can procreate. There would be less welfare, no teen pregnancy, and you can regulate who can bear children so there would eventually be no idiots running around. Sociallistic, yes, but wouldn't it be great.

Well, I haven't got that far yet. I start at the top and read down a page, then go to the next one down. A lot of reading when returning from exile.

So which is cheaper to taxpayers?

30 days in jail for these scumbags or a vasectomy?

Well, the "vasectomy" they deserve would be fairly cheap. A kitchen knife runs, let's say around ten bucks. Box of band-aids for about three bucks. Bottle of generic aspirin for about two bucks.

That is the funniest thing I've heard all day

My son's father hasn't even been close to going to jail, and he's only paid CS maybe three months of the entire 2 years we've had the order. They like to give the POS's the benefit of the doubt. A friend of mine's father went to jail the day after he (the friend) turned 18, for non-payment of support for 18 years. So basically, they'll give them countless chances before sending them to jail. At least that's the way it is in Charles County.

Well it might be the funniest thing you've heard, but thats the way its supposed to be, and trust me I know the POS's don't get jail time, Ive had an order since 99, and the father has paid hardly nothing and its a shame the state doesnt do more.
