Financial Incentives
Personal financial gain is also another strong motivator to hostile-aggressive parents. Gaining custody and control of the children involved is often desired as a way of increasing one party’s personal financial gain to the disadvantage of the other parent.
Hostile-Aggressive Parenting can help achieve this by helping to gain custody and child support for the child. For the parent with custody of the child there are huge rewards – child support payment, income tax credits and other child tax credits. Between child support and the other tax benefits, the amount of money involved is usually amounts to thousands of dollars per year, much of it tax-free.
On the opposite side is the fear of the parent of becoming the non-custodial parent. This anticipated result encourages other parents to resort to Hostile-Aggressive Parenting for the same reason. The financial windfall associated with child support does little to promote cooperative parenting and ultimately increases animosity, anger, revenge, disorder and breaks down harmony.
Child support laws are very punitive to the party who loses custody of the child.
