Hey, That’s Your Kid Too!

Sometimes a man will walk away from a relationship with minor children feeling that his obligations are finished.  How wrong is that?  They cannot legally run from their responsibility even if they live in another state.  Know this, child support agencies in different states are required to help each other establish and enforce child support orders.
