Government told her too? - She gets pregnant every 2 years to get another Child Support order.?

Why would she do that to her 5 kids by 5 different dads? How will she survive when she can no longer produce children? She says she can't work because it is too hard and people are mean to her ( she had a job at McDonald's once.

Plus she said the people at the Child Support Enforcement Bureau are ALWAYS nice to her and help her get another court ordered child support check ! She said the highest payment monthly is 800. and one guy does not pay so she has to live on about 3000. dollars a month in Child support payments.

She said the child support workers encouraged her to have more children. Is this common?

Update:

*** QUESTION - Is this common?

    Is what common, requiring guys to pay child support for their kids? Yeah, that's common.

    Child Support Enforcement isn't telling her to have more kids. They're telling her she has the right to child support from the dads of those kids.

    And $3000 a month for a family of 6 (mom and 5 kids) below poverty.

    It not only common but required that parenys pay to support their children. In my professional experience, i have never heard of Child Support encouraging a mother to keep having more children. Why would they? There have been funding cuts to state agencies and which means less workers, less hours with mandatory furlough days and pay cuts. The child support case workers do not receive a penny more fir additional cases. The exact reason why i dont work Child Support or Family Court anymore. So why would any child support worker encourage more clients, which means higher case loads with fewer workers and less time to process and child support case workers make the same no matter how many cases they have. So this woman is lying to you or you are trying to get everyone riled up because you have a pathetic life and are being forced to pay for your responsibilities of your child.

    What exactly is your question?

    Yes, it is common that courts require fathers to pay child support for their children even if the woman has other children and even if she doesn't work. The law requires a man to support his children.

    If men don't want to pay child support they should wear a condom or forgo premarital sex.

    And what is your point??

    Maybe you should address those five idiots who got her pregnant, unless of course, you are one of them?

    A good example of why birth control, abortion, and sex education should be made as vastly available as possible
