[quote=Anonymous]We have a 2.5 year-old. My ex pays adequate/generous support (it basically covers our full-day preschool payment) and I pay for everything out of his support check. We're both on the same page in terms of what extra activities we want her to do. When she's in public school, his support will decrease, but we'll make sure that activities like ballet, soccer, camps, etc. are included in the calculations. Personally, I think the ex might be taking advantage, unless the child support payment is a very small one. Perhaps you could sit down and figure out what the coming year's expenses are likely to be, and how much should be paid by each parent? I don't see anything wrong with your post, OP- I feel like the ex should take some responsibility over how much things cost, not just run to your husband for money every time she pays for something. I wouldn't dream of asking for extra money beyond my support checks.[/quote]
