[quote=Anonymous]OP again.  I actually am surprised at this reaction but I guess I shouldn't be.  DH asked me to post here because we don't know if what we ware doing is normal or not, we dont have any friends or family in our situation.  DH pays $1400/m in support, his ex lives in Charles County with a very low cost of living, and if he went back to court our payments would likely increase a few hundred dollars.  He pays 100% of all extra activities which averages out to $100's more a month - so at the end of day he probably wouldn't give her any less than he does now.  We just don't know if this is how others operate.  I do not care at all about the extra money, it is a matter of feeling like the ex is constantly asking for more and more.  Actually HE feels this more than I do, I want to avoid all conflict with her if I can.  I love my DSS and I'm not an awful step mom.  In the future I will make sure that DH asks these questions so at least the evil step mom component will be removed.  [/quote]
