This government has also given foster care payments a huge slug, making it very hard to care properly for these children.
But this government hasn't got a problem with the amount of money given out to help asylum seekers.
Be very careful Labour. because if these problems are not fixed, you will lose two more votes in the election.
I cannot stand Tony Abbott, but without these changes you give both my husband and I no choice but to vote Liberal.
WAKE UP AND HELP AUSTRALIA FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!

These men then claim putting they are "putting the children first" in shared parenting, but often engage in control antics, using the children unknowingly as pawns. Children knowing their fathers more closely when they are older (teen) and can have a choice & say, is much much healthier for the children & mother in these many difficult, punishing situations. Let mothers be good mothers at home!

I am going to uni to get a degree behind me, so that my son and I will have a better life with more financial stability down the track.

It's fair enough to expect parents to work, study or volunteer or undergo other mutual obligation activity, but to change the payment to a lesser amount, which is affected more by working than PPS, is only going to cause a wider gap in the community. This is discrimination in its worst form, as though the country only values 2 parent families and want them both to be working at that.

They know that if it goes to court the father will gain unsupervised access. For these women the best way to protect their children is to stay with thier abuser. The Family Law Act is now another tool of abuse used by men to control and terrorise women and in turn the children who witness this violence.
