They make virtually everything they have. Whatever they need to buy they barter for. They make an extremely limited amount of money, if any.
The point is, they lived this way before and they should be able to continue to live this way.
Why don't you tell me why a person shouldn't be able to provide food instead of cash? What's the problem with that? Everyone eats, the kid eats, why is cash better than food?
What are they using for bartering? The food they grow? So they could barter for their child's needed items as well. Or I don't know sell it and give them cash? They can't barter for a doctor's visit. I don't know any dentists that fill cavities for corn. Not everything can be bartered for. You can't barter for property taxes, or insurance. They can't pay for everything with food.
But the child needs food. It's an unavoidable, everyday need for everyone. The cash provided would be spent on food in the end so why can't they just be given food? Quit complicating it.
You can barter for almost anything. Taxes, cash, but that's ONE thing...you can barter for virtually everything else, or go without. I know people who pull their own teeth and take horse antibiotics. I know people who barter with doctors. Doctors are people too. They need work done or other stuff. They're down to trade.
But what if they have a different need thing at the time? Why can't you understand that? What you are describing is not proper parenting. They might need something else right then and there and the food isn't going to help them but the cash is... get it?
You ALWAYS need food every day. There's no substitute for food. There's substitutes for everything else, there's ways to get other things without cash if it's an emergency. The money that the custodian saves on NOT having to buy food would then go for "other needs". What aren't you understanding about that?
IIN to think Child Support Is Unfair!

Again, tell me. How is this person meeting their own personal needs aside from food?

So it is totally on the other parent to handle such things? How is that fair? What the fuck do you think 50 a month is gonna do anyway?
