Petition updateRevise child maintenance calculations to consider both parents' incomesAwaiting update from my local MP

Thank you so much for taking the time to support me and sign my petition. The Child Maintenance Service must stop enabling financial abuse and allowing ex‑partners to use their children as a tool for personal gain. It’s heartbreaking how many people have become victims of this government‑run system—pushed into debt, driven into depression, and in the most devastating cases, losing their lives.
I’ve contacted my local MP to ask for their support in getting this petition seen by a wider audience. Some people have told me it’s pointless, but I believe it’s worth trying every possible avenue to create change.
If you’re going through this, or you know someone who has been affected, please share and sign. Every voice matters 🙏
Thank you
Jodi
