This article examines compliance with child support orders by divorced fathers in Wisconsin during 1981-1989. The father's ability to pay is strongly related to compliance: Compliance increases as the father's income increases. The "burden" of orders does not affect compliance unless the order is for more than 35% of the father's income. More stringent enforcement systems also increase compliance. Our analysis of the characteristics of fathers who are not paying child support suggests that although these fathers are not a high income group, they are generally not so poor that they could not afford to pay at least some support.
