Casino winnings could be taken for child support.

I think this is a great idea, because there are a lot of women raising their children alone and are having a hard time making ends meet. And if the fathers cant afford to pay child support, they sure cant afford gambling.

You have that right children come first. I am
glad to see that they will do this but how
are they going to get the money. The casinos
have to have a computer system set up with
the information so that the payout isn't made
to the person.

THIS WOULD BE GREAT IF IT WORKS. I am so sick of deadbeat parents. and Yes I said parents because there are a few women out there that have to pay childsupport too and don't. I actually live next to a women that had to pay childsupport until she finally got custody of her kids back.

Great post bartongrl1. I think this is a great idea and I hope it works. There is nothing worse than a dead-beat parent in my opinion. It costs a lot of money to provide for a child and needs to be both parents responsibility. You are also right that if they can't afford their child then they can't afford to gamble.
