If no legal representatives are required, I would go for it as well. I have a second friend who has wasted his life over this type of situation.
Got married years ago, had a son and after 8 years they split. Nasty split BTW. All was well for the first couple of years then she cut off any visitation for my friend, and the court, while not agreeing, did not force the issue. My friend said "to hell with you, if I cannot see my son, all payments stop" and he stopped paying. They went after him and he stopped working, sold everything and now lives undercover with little or no reportable income. He has gone to the point of declaring bankruptcy and since its a federal condition, the state people cannot touch him until its over.
Personally I feel he has wasted his life just to get back at her, but part of what he is doing is correct. She is breaking the law by not allowing him to see his child, and the court could care less. On the otherhand they want their (her) money every month no matter what.
Tough situation and hope that it works out for you and your kids.
