If you voted Republican at any point in your life, you deserve this.
Vote Socialist or perish in wage slavery.
I feel that wasent the answer this person was looking for
Faggot
I mean, he asked where he fucked up. It should be very obvious right now why he is suffering pocket book pains.
>no universal healthcare yet, getting screwed on mom's meds
>probably lives in a highly conservative state where if women are stay at home moms they automatically deserve a permanent allowance forever because divorce isn't a final stage of separation to them especially if they made a child.
>drinking to escape problems likely at an expensive bar and not buying a cheap handle
>miminum wage peanut jobs cucking him for massive production instead of fair wages and unions
I have no idea how to help you OP, but I can tell you you're the strongest person on this board. Stay strong, stop drinking, and keep your head up. Your suffering will make you stronger in the end, as long as you keep going.
t. upper middle class faggot who has never struggled
Lol. Yeah. Vote socialist so we can all be poor. Well, everyone except the elite socialist leaders in charge.
Sometimes I come here to cheer up, try to find a thread where someone has it worse than you and you'll suddenly appreciate your life a little bit more. Ask for a raise at Mcdonalds tell u r boss you're fucked financially and you want a better paying position there? only works like once or twice a year tho.
Sounds very much like the capitalist world we live in now.
This thread brought to you by Magnum Condoms!
Don't be silly, wrap your willy. Condoms are cheaper than children. If you can't feed your kids, don't have kids.
>still believing we won't hang the elite in the streets or rape them for equal wages
Must be fun to enjoy being poor so much you think there is no hope for you.
Have you spoken to your social worker or legal liason about changing around your child-schedule? If mom is such a useless bum, that means that she's got more free time to watch the kid while you relax a little more. There's got to be some help that she can provide too, legally speaking. Especially if YOU are paying HER child support.
If you think people in the West are poor in any way you're beyond retarded. The poorest people here have more than the average African.
>turns out the tripfag is, indeed, a faggot
he probably doesn't want the kid staying with the mom because she's a bad influence.
she doesent have custody cause she couldn't leave her old life behind she took our child to the doctor and got our child on adderal or how ever you spell that but she did it behind my back and I didn't know and this was when she was a more involved parent but she let the school know our child would be taking them and I still didn't know any of this but one day the school called me and said there going to be investigating the missing pills??? apparently she was giving them a bottle with like 5 pills in it when it said like 30 on the side of the bottle whole bunch of other stuff went down but that's the main reason I got custody now and I did try talking to her case worker and it's sum stupid shit where if she's trying to find work and still a active parent, and showing shes getting better? and sumthing else to do with housing and the other freebie handouts she gets ...uts a bit of a mess
So how did a crack whore get the child-package she did at the time of the custody battle? If you've got proof that she's using her kids for illegal meds and shit, then you should take her back to court and redo things if you can.
I dont drink like I said I tryed lol but thanks....im too lame to waist my time drinking rather spend it with my kid ...currently my child's room is half box fort ..two floors 9 rooms I can fit in only half of then ,lighting,heating,we had a sleep over last weekend so we installed zombie proof walls and doors ...thats a thing we picked up sum weird hobbies for the winter months ... but box fort awesomeness cost pffffff 30 40 bucks at most for a full fort
That's really fucking cool, I hope your kids are grateful for having such a good father. What they'll remember from their childhood is that quality time, not the economical problems. Please push your kids towards a good career if you can, that way they can help you retire.
Good luck man
sorry if my shit don't make sence I apologise ...but she lost custody after the pill thing it got brought to court after that but she was still able to keep receiving he handouts while not working and about a year after that she was able to get visitation or what ever they call it once a month on the weekend
when she got the visitation that's when the child support letter cam and that was about 3 years ago
sorry for my rant I'm not one to complain about my problems but I'm in a pickle and love the feed back even the negative....sumtimes being called a faggit helps lol kinda like a recomposure slap...you suck and you just gotta keep going :) thanks
So she's unreliable but still gotta pay her child support even tho she's not raising the child, that's some BS man. I've caught some BS in my life but that's a cancer. So, you've been diagnosed cancer, you seem to be mature making good decisions, but the moeny not working.
I think the solution for you is a better job. THe factory job overnight? that must suck balls and pay dick... call centers hire basically anyone, they are a grind but they pay better. Or if you want to stay within somewhat similar to what you're doing, dude there's gotta be something around, unless you're in buttfuck georgia and there is 1 job for ever town and it's walmart. I pounded the pavement for 3 days straight, applied to like 20 jobs this week, 1 call back so far for to be a dishwasher, it was disappointing but i'm not giving up man
It sounds like he probably could feed his kid but his leech of an ex wife is taking money from him too
Pay me to iill your wife
yeah, what did he say, he was sending her 1200 dollars a month? that's Andrew Yang money...
