[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He doesn’t get to just not help pay camp and childcare expenses. He is also a parent and child support alone is a joke in most states. If you truly have the kids 99% of the week, your child support should be adjusted accordingly. For example, in VA there are two formulas; one for most custody splits and one in situations where one parent has fewer than 95 x 24 hour periods with their children. The parent with far less custody has to pay more.

I know lawyers are expensive but DO NOT let him steamroll you because you are afraid of having to pay a good lawyer.

+1 my sister was thrifty on the legal support during her divorce and paid for it dearly over the years. Invest some time and money here to make sure you turn over every leaf on what you and your kids will need and should expect. Don’t count on any amicable generosity later. One of her kids has expensive out-of-pocket medical needs and she is solely responsible even the ex makes 5x her salary. [/quote]

This. Remember, he already [b]hired an aggressive attorney[/b]. Don't bring a knife to this gun fight. [/quote]

This OP. My mom was Ms. Nice and got effed by her second husband. His despicable family helped him hide money. Their DD will barely speak to him now, kids know what's what.

You are a bad @ss! Go get what you deserve, girl. If he's not seeing the kids, you could also move them out of state to force his hand.

Try Starbucks or Whole Foods for insurance.

This.  The attorney is just doing his job but has to have DH's support in this move, which is telling.  YOu need to hire an equally aggressive attorney.  don't do anything else until you do that.[/quote][/quote]
