What do you think of the new law that charges the custodial parent a fee for child support collected?

There is a new law now where Child Enforcement Agencies are charging a $25 a year fee, not to the ones that owe child support, but to the custodial parent who is OWED child support...that when the non cust. parent sends in a payment, a fee is taken out and guess where it goes? TO HELP REDUCE THE DEFICIT!!!


What do you think of this?What do you think of the new law that charges the custodial parent a fee for child support collected?
I think that it makes sense on some level, and in a perfect world. I mean, a lot of parents don't want to do their own dirty work of collecting money. This is not meant to be a generalization. I KNOW that there are plenty of parents that wouldn't get a dime even if the cried blood, and pulled teeth. But there are plenty others that don't want to lift a finger and still expect to get something for their kids every month.





It is not easy, but it is for the child so why not go to bat for them. I think the original intent behind the fee was to convince parents that were otherwise able to collect outside of the system, to take advantage of that. And to save the system for those that really needed it in order to get anything. That plan of course would only work in a perfect world where there was enough man-power to determine who really did need it and who didn't. But oh well...What do you think of the new law that charges the custodial parent a fee for child support collected?
This is NOT happening in Wyoming.





But it may be happening in other states. Something like this coming from California wouldn't surprise me.
That is crap!
Which state and a link please.
Which state is this in?
