Marlene HOWARD, Appellant, v. Earl HOWARD, Appellee. Connie Scott STALEY, Appellant, v. Mark D. STALEY, Appellee.
    Nos. 87-3203, 87-3204.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    April 13, 1988.
    Rehearing Denied May 19, 1988.
    Osborne Walker O’Quinn, Fort Pierce, for appellants.
    Jacqueline L. Russakis, Fort Pierce, for appellees.
   PER CURIAM.

We affirm the orders at issue herein because we do not believe the appellants have demonstrated an abuse of discretion. Notwithstanding our affirmance we caution trial judges to be certain that child support orders are properly enforced even during the pendency of an action for modification by the parent obligated to make support payments. Children should not be deprived of support from a parent able to pay even during the pendency of a modification proceeding.

ANSTEAD, DELL and STONE, JJ., concur.
