Thank you, Chair. Thank you to both of the witnesses for being here.
I think that this legislation, by and large, has good cross-party support. It's something that we all want to see to make things better for people going through difficult times in their lives. Certainly all of us have that huge soft spot with children because they seem to be the bartering tool for many of these people.
I guess what I'm concerned about or wonder about is that many of these breakdowns occur when the children are very young.
Ms. Vandergrift, I think you mentioned that it is capacity, not age, that is important. How do we make those determinations for children who are of a very young and tender age? How should they be represented? What should be there for them?
Part of what I worry about are the support monies. Obviously, they are typically paid by one spouse to another. How do we know that those children get the benefit of those support payments?
