Article Abstract:

Studies show that non-custodial parents are likely to pay more child support when they hear of achievements made by their child, which convinces them their money is well spent. Conversely, custodial parents may encourage achievement in their child in hope of receiving improved support payments.

A reason for quantity regulation

Article Abstract:

Limiting undesirable behavior by quantity regulations is less expensive to law enforcement than attempting to limit undesirable activity by taxation. Enforcement of limits is often free because it is reported by concerned citizens. Tax enforcement is difficult, time consuming and expensive.
