A quick definition of DPPA:

Term: DPPA

Definition: DPPA stands for Deadbeat Parents Punishment Act. This is a law that punishes parents who do not pay child support. Child support is money that a parent pays to help take care of their child. If a parent does not pay child support, they can be punished by the law.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: DPPA stands for Deadbeat Parents Punishment Act. It is a federal law that punishes parents who fail to pay child support.

Example: John was ordered by the court to pay $500 a month in child support for his two children. However, he stopped paying after a few months. His ex-wife filed a complaint, and John was found guilty of violating the DPPA. He was fined and sentenced to six months in jail.

Explanation: The example illustrates how the DPPA is used to punish parents who do not fulfill their financial obligations towards their children. In this case, John was ordered by the court to pay child support, but he failed to do so. As a result, he was punished under the DPPA, which is a federal law that aims to ensure that parents meet their child support obligations.
