About Me

My name is Chris, I first started my child support case about a year ago. The hardest part about dealing with everything is the not knowing what was going to happen, I wasn't able to plan anything and pretty much put my life on hold because this was going to be a major life adjustment.

So I have 3 kids total, my 5 year old has been largely a part of my life. I met a woman after my divorce and we were together for about 6 months when I had to move about 3 hours away for work reasons, so we ended our relationship because neither one of us wanted a long distance relationship.

After living in San Bernardino, CA. 2 years later I received a long letter in the mail from this woman, stating she had twin boys and that I'm their father. This was probably the most eye opening feeling I had in my life, my first thoughts were that she is full of it and for some sick reason this was her way of trying to get us back together.

So it took me a few weeks before I actually called her, at first I asked her if she was for sure that they're mine. After us talking about it I told her I wanted to get a paternity test, then we met up to go down to the office where we had the test done.

At this time I had already transferred my job back to San Diego, but since this had happened I didn't move back there yet, so I was commuting from San Bernardino to San Diego daily for work. For the next year I continued to do this commute, not knowing what my financial status was going to be I had to do the commute because I couldn't move out there not knowing if I was going to be able to afford living out there while supporting 3 children.

Doing that commute for a year I actually ended losing my job because of tardies, and let me say it actually worked out for me, not only for the driving but kind of made me settle here in riverside, I got another job 4 days after being fired right next to home and I am so much happier now! I'm especially happy that all the child support stuff is done, I now know the budget I'm working with and I can rest easy being able to move on with my life, I don't get to see my children as often but it will increase as time goes.
