I am one among countless parents who have been financially manipulated and controlled by an ex-partner refusing to fulfill their child support obligations. As a single parent earning 50k a year, I've had my daughter in daycare since she was just 8 weeks old. I returned to work merely four days after her birth, striving tirelessly to provide for her - only to be mocked by my ex who refuses to pay his due share.

My story is not unique. There are many others like me - mothers who are being financially abused by ex-partners exploiting the system's loopholes. My ex has lied about his wages, hasn't lodged a tax return in over ten years, and owes approximately 50k with no apparent consequences.

The current laws surrounding child support need urgent reform. It should be considered a criminal offence when individuals deliberately mislead government bodies with false information or withhold necessary details related to their financial responsibilities towards their children.

This is not just about the money; it's about justice for parents struggling alone while others shirk their responsibilities without any repercussions. We demand that refusal to pay child support and providing misleading information become criminal offences punishable under law.

Enough is enough! Stand with us as we fight for justice for all single parents out there dealing with similar circumstances. Sign this petition today!
