Rejected petition Change the way child maintenance is calculated.

I want a fairness in calculation, not based on wages. Based on the average cost to bring up a child, also child maintenance to take into account the other parents expenses to maintain his/her family. Without trying to make the paying parent financially strained.

More details

I have suffered unfairness within the system and now it’s time for a change, my local MP couldn’t help, so this is my last hope to make a wrong a right and serve justice to the man/women that has been bullied by the system and have a structure that is helpful to the paying parent.
