he does have a lawyer Ken. He is the one who filed, with his L. SHe has a lawyer and also, her father is a lawyer.

But he doesn't like how much it costs. (Who does?)

Bruce feels that the temporary support amount requested of him which ends next month, was too much. That included past amounts not paid.

Anyhow, if you read his thread you'll be able to see Bruce's journey has taken him to some very different places in his heart/head.

Sometimes he has opined that if he were to leave Canada and live somewhere else, and not pay anything or have much to do with his son

he'd be able to contact him in the distant future and explain that his wife prevented him from paying or fathering.

Other days he suggests total surrender although I don't know what that means exactly.

My goals for Bruce would be for him to

1) find balance in his approach, and to NOT connect money to his custodial battles;

2) GAL and develop empathy for his wife. Not necessarily to agree with her perspective, but to understand she's not insane to see things quite diffferently than he does,
and

3) to develop more coping skills so that his moods don't swing so far and so he doesn't make decisions he'll later regret.

It's worth reading thru his thread, imo.
