Since the agencies start in 1991 there have been 45 suicides of fathers and children directly attributed to the CSA pressure. Fathers report serious depressions which can last for years. Work motivational level plummets and some lose their jobs. It is frequently reported that fathers are left with large debts on credit cards and loans to pay. During this period of high vulnerability some fathers report being involved in further disputes with friends, family, neighbours, and acquaintances.
Some fathers report being involved in a work or car related accident, perhaps as a result of stress.
Many men now consider the state to be their enemy.
