Child Support
If child support payments are not
being used for the child’s needs, it can
be considered a misuse of those
funds. Mothers who spend child
support on themselves rather than the
child may face consequences if it’s
established that the child’s needs are
not being met
Fathers
Play an important role in a child's
development and can affect a child's
social competence, performance in
school and emotion regulation.
Fathers can also affect a child's
wellbeing indirectly. A supportive
relationship between parents is linked
to better self-regulation in a child
My name is Fehogia Makaveli and I learned about Fathers and Sons, Daddy Boot Camp
program from word of mouth and online. I am currently a stay-at-home Dad in the process
of getting sole custody of my son. My biggest challenges are having enough energy,
strength and time to myself and finding support. The most important thing that I learned
about being a dad is that being a parent is not for the weak minded.
Some of the most important issues that I had was when I found out I was being played by
the mother of my child. I would give her money for my son and for her to pay some bills,
but she was not using the money for the needs of my child. I am in the process of getting
sole custody of my son through the Children Services.
