Most certainly.... You didn't get pregnant by your self....its his choice to not see them....too many men (including) women, find it easy to walk away from their responsibilities...my ex was getting social security, didn't pay for 18 yrs, until his death last month i was getting a payment from social security..... Go for it girl

Research the laws in your state. In some states, if the man signs over custody of the children, he is no longer required to pay child support. If this is the case, ask nicely again about support but don't push it because he may have the papers drawn up to give you custody and you wont see any of it.

Even though he doesn't want to see the kids, he WILL NOT sign them over. I already asked him. I don't know why he wont. He's so strange. He says it hurts him to bad to see them right now, but who cares about his feelings, he should be concerned with theirs over his own.

Yes, he should help raise those kid's, financially, if he doesn't want to be in their lives, so sad for the girls, but whether he pays child support, is up to you.. And I am thinking with rising prices and college as expensive as it is.. Then yes without a doubt.please do it for the kid's, they deserve his financial help...

You should be able to find out through the state if he is lying about the disability. I wouldn't let him get away with not paying, you can bet that if you were hurt, he would still be after you for money.

Apply for welfare and they will get every cent they gave you back from him. You can go to family court, they will handle it from their, and find out if he has any money for support.

Yes it takes to to raise children and if he chooses not to see them then that's his deal. File asap. My mom got money from the state when my father refused to pay like $400 a month... There are ways.

Yes you should file. He may be working -- are you sure his accident is 'for real'? If you don't need it for living expenses save it for your daughters education!

Yes his accident is 'for real". I was still with him at the time. Bad, very bad car accident. The docs kept saying how lucky he was. He had many fractured vertebraes, and worst of all his neck was broke, i cant remember the exact name of the "bone" but docs said he should've been paralyzed or DEAD!! He has a plate and screw in his neck , 2 surgerys, and cannot move his head up down or side to side. He also suffers from memory loss,...not stuff that happened a long time ago but recent things. He asked why this had to happen to him and one day when we were fighting I told him it was because god punished you for being mean to your family and mentally and physically abusing me. But he thinks he's perfect and he's not. Someone who doesn't care or want to see their 2 very beautiful and lovable 1 ad 2 yr old daughters isn't perfect and has no love in him at all. And I do need the money I just don't know if I should cause I feel bad for him cause he says he isn't getting any income at all but he has to be lying!! So I don't know what to do!! He had and still has me so controlled!!!

I used the max. Amount of words so I'm writing more on the answer part... He says that I'm just money hungry, but we both made these girls so we should both take care of them right?? Since his accident he's tried to work but is in too much pain and said that he got turned down from disability and has no income. I doubt that!! He has to be lying about money somewhere. I haven't filed for child support cause part of me feels bad for him (for his accident and for the fact that when we were together he paid for my two boys that aren't his) but another part of me feels that he should pay for our girls. Its bad enough that he doesn't want to see his 2 precious daughters but he should at least help support them. And i don't work..i have an autistic child and and adhd child (plus my 2 little girls) and no drivers license so right now it's hard for me to work. (but i am trying to find a job) i don't know.. I'm just so  confused. And if i do file will i ever get any money from him if he says he has no income?? Any suggestions would be great!!

Well if he doesn't pay he could go to jail. Anything is better than nothing, all men that don't want to help financially say we are money hungry..your girls deserve his help..good luck. I mean that.
