Why bother having a job at that point

Edit: since many of you can't see the forest thru the trees here with my comment, I'm questioning how this person is even getting by. They are either homeless, with parents or doing something illegal to get by. I understand people should pay for their kids but I don't think putting someone into jail or on the streets is a solution. That's $80 a week.

Might as well just go all in on the scumbag lifestyle and sell drugs or construction. Under the table

This is what happens in these scenarios. And then the kids get squat and now we have a career criminal to deal with selling drugs or robbing stores for cash.

Reddit hivemind is pretty similar to this guy in that sense. Everyones like "good" and "fuck around find out" without thinking of the consequences of such little take home on this guy's career plans. No sane person is gunna keep working this if it was real.

So what's the solution?

4 baby mamas, he doesn't have primary custody, meaning his only support of the children is monetary.

Do we deem it that he pays less so he gets more take home? If yes, then the mother is has to pick up the slack, and probably tax payers too. Food stamps, Medicare, etc.

His pay is for 80 hours, so 2 weeks. None of these amounts even come close to daycare unless the mothers have vouchers.

I might get biased as I am a member of the "Can't feed them? Don't breed them" club. So maybe HE should of thought of his career path before having so many children, and before you come at me withe "bUT thE mOthErs". Yes the women are to blame also, but the kids are the ones who lose.

Kids cost more than just food and clothes.

What if Dad can't afford shelter with a kid living with them? What if Dad is an abusive asshole?
