Is there something on internet explaining, reasoning with a mean/thick deadbeat why he should, morally, pay maintenance?

Just wondering?

My x is maggoty rich and doesn't contribute. He genuinely believes that he has no moral obligation to give me money towards the children because I left him, and therefore 'implicity undertook to pay for their upbringing'.

I can't argue or reason with that level of idiocy and denial, and I don't try anymore.

I am just wondering if there is anything on the internet, aimed at deadbeat fathers, to make them understand and face up to the fact that they are in the wrong not to contribute,,,

just wondering, because although for now I'm not persuing x for money, I will next year. (long story, legal issue).

I am about. Just not posting about a topic that's obviously not going to get us all to agree and as it seems just as likely that we are not going to agree to disagree, it's not really practical to argue in circles.

Good plan N1.
