    There's a saying, you can't get blood from a turnip. If he has no money, he has no money. If he has no driver's license, they can't suspend his license. What do you propose that they should do?

    Wait, you're complaining that he doesn't have a job, but your daughter is receiving TANF, which means she doesn't either... or she has one that makes very little money.

    As Aaron said, you can't get blood from a turnip and they won't find him in contempt unless his failure to pay support is willful. Regardless, since your daughter is receiving taxpayer money, the money they collect will belong to the state, not your daughter anyway, so they can do with the case what they want.

    My daughter receives Social Security Disability Benefits and has just finished classes hoping to get into the medical billing and coding field. I do totally understand what you are saying about getting blood from a turnip. I just find it hard to believe that he has not had some kind of income for over two years now, especially since he moved out of his parents' home. If he has no income, how is he supporting himself? Instead of him helping to support their child, it's left to my husband and I to do so. Don't get me wrong, we dearly love our daughter and granddaughter. It just drives me nuts that this man alternates between demanding that my daughter send him updates about my granddaughter (even though he fled the state and she had no way to contact him) and then threatening to sue her for harassment when she DOES e-mail him telling him about her.
