When Rewards Backfire

Child support policies are designed to ensure children's financial well-being. But for low-income, non-custodial parents, these rules can create a strong disincentive to earn more, as higher wages mean higher payments. This can lead parents to reduce work hours or take off-the-books jobs to lower their obligations. The unintended consequence is a system that can paradoxically reduce the very financial support it was created to provide, punishing both the parent and the child.
