A young father tells Judge Judy he waited for an official court order before financially supporting his nearly two-year-old child. He says his lawyer advised him to wait for wage garnishment, but Judge Judy isn’t buying that explanation.

Judge Judy makes her position crystal clear: if you’re old enough to make a baby, you’re old enough to support one. Feeding and caring for your child isn’t something that should have to wait for a judge to tell you what to do.

Judge Judy continues to entertain viewers with Judy Sheindlin’s unmistakable mix of common sense, personal responsibility and straight talk.
