It would maybe be fair enough if the parent with care was then guaranteed support for their children as a result, but as we can see the odds are stacked against that happening. Even with the supposed powers the CSA have, too often nothing gets done.Lubeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15665415663950882185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6384527644390171544.post-3611667423646635122011-12-02T14:22:24.880+00:002011-12-02T14:22:24.880+00:00Seriously?

I am really lucky, for the past 15 years I've had a private arrangement with my ex husband, a 4 weekly direct debit and not much hassle at all. I did not realise I was such a minority. <br /><br />The flip side tho, whenever I declare the child maintenance nobody accepts that I receive it because it is not CSA ordained or under a court order.
