    Dear Mr.:

    I write in behalf of, my client and the mother of your acknowledged child, , a
    minor and currently residing at, Iloilo, Philippines. You have not been consistent
    with giving financial support to the above-named child and support to said child
    should not be based on your whim but a legal obligation as his father.

    We are writing this letter to formally demand support from you.

    My client is asking for a monthly support of at least Thousand Pesos


    (Php,000.00), which is an approximate fifty percent (50%) of the monthly
    expenses of your child, payable at the first day of each. This amount will be used
    by my client to pay for the expenses of your child’s basic needs.

    Support, as defined by Article 194 of the Family Code, compromises everything


    indispensable for sustenance, dwelling, clothing, medical attendance, education
    and transportation, in keeping with the financial capacity of the family.

    The education of the person entitled to be supported referred to in the next


    preceding paragraph shall include his schooling or training for some profession,
    trade or vocation, even beyond the age of majority. The same Article also
    explained that transportation shall include expenses in going to and from school,
    or to and from place of work.

    Please take note that the amount being demanded by my client may change in
    the future depending on your child’s needs. Further, any future emergency
    expenses, such as medical attendance or hospitalization of your child, will be
    divided by you and my client equally.

    This is also to inform you that an unreasonable deprivation of your child’s basic
    needs is a criminal act. It is considered as an act of child abuse as defined under
    Sec. 3. b(3) of R.A. 7610, also known as Special Protection of Children Against
    Child Abuse, Exploitation and Discrimination Act. It states:

    "(b) "Child abuse" refers to the maltreatment, whether habitual or not, of


    the child which includes any of the following:

    (1) xxx
    (2) xxx
    (3) Unreasonable deprivation of his basic needs for survival, such
    as food and shelter;".

    Attached with this letter is a summary of the monthly expenses of the child for
    your reference.

    Please contact me at or within 10 days from receipt of this letter, otherwise, we


    will be forced to file the appropriate civil or criminal cases against you.

    Yours truly,

    ATTY.
