@stilleaworkinprogress: Mom explains the economics of single mothers. 💸 What is the average child support award, and how much of that is actually paid? 🤰The poverty rate for single mothers is nearly 28%— more than double the rate of single fathers. #EduTok #economics #financialliteracy #wealthgap #learnontiktokcontest

Thank you for speaking on this. I’m a solo parent and receive no financial support for my son.

This🙌🏼 My 7yr old daughter and my twins 3yrs don’t get any child support from their father and see him only a few times a year. He comes and mows amour grass for free but won’t come in and spend time with them🤦🏻‍♀️I’ve invested so much in his business to help him become successful enough to pay the support. Thankfully i’ve made a very beautiful healthy life for us. There’s an emotional component to it that gets lost however because money isn’t everything.

jessf426 :

so I didnt get a thing from my son(16) but he just asked if I can get his dad something. I'm struggling. of course I came up with the $ for him. mind you his father makes 7 figures.

My daughter cooks me a meal every Father’s Day!

skye 🌿🧚🏼✨ :

child support doesn’t actually pay for anything by itself. can’t cover childcare, rent, or even most bills… thank you for spreading this awareness!

My child support order is $50 a month for my oldest and $194 for my 2nd child…the one that had the $194 order thinks that’s to high.
