Child Support !

                                         Child Support!

Well this is a pretty touchy subject here but I must dive into it. My father had 18 children and he never have heard of child support. His definition of child support was feeding. clothing and keeping a roof over our heads. I am baffled as to why the US Courts have to make a dad take care of his child/children. What in the world has happened to our culture.

A father would rather quit his job, lose his home, go hungry rather than to just support the children he brought into the world. Can someone explain this to Mother Allen? I never did hear my father complain because he had children to take care of. He loved us conditionally. Dad didn't have a lot of money, in fact we were poor but just didn't know it. He was a farmer or in a better term, a share-cropper. He never owned any land of his own. But he never ever left us to fend for ourselves. 

Fathers and I must say some mothers, just don't want to care for their children. You know Jesus told the disciples in Matthews 19:14 "Let the little children come to Me, and  do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven". He also said "the least you do unto these my little ones, you have done it unto me".

 I had the opportunity to sit in a Child Support Court to listen to the cases and when I tell you I was so saddened to hear of the poor reasons why the fathers did not take care of their children even after been told by the courts they had to. Consequently some of these fathers were ordered to be incarcerated immediately. My Bishop of Greater Mt Calvary Holy Church has a profound slogan which is "Can't We Just All Get Along"? Ask God to remove the disdain you may have for your child's mom or dad and move on.

Well, this is all I'm going to say for now. But please get it together, our children are precious in God's sight and He will charge you for not caring for them.
