    Oh yeah, I honestly agree…fuck a dude taking a vacation when he’s way behind on child support. But at the same time…iono…somehow denying a passport over that feels weird?

      Fleeing to another country and not returning would make holding individuals who do owe child support much harder…

        I actually knew a guy who did that and goes on my list of “biggest pieces of shit Ive ever known”

        Was a bible thumping “christian” who couldnt wait to lecture people. Girlfriend got pregnant, he volunteered to go work at a catholic mission in Africa somewhere before she had the baby. Never came back.

      For me, the idea of the opposite feels weird… being able to get a passport when you are delinquent on child support.

      It’s not like they are being denied health insurance or food stamps.
