[quote=Anonymous]Op, a lot of people are giving great advice.  I just want to add (and emphasize) that you need to talk to your DH about the money issue.  If you both are really strapped for cash, then your DH needs to see that.  You could take over finances (give DH an allowance on what he could spend on all things - including his DS), you could have separate finances - and let him handle his half any way he likes.

The other thing I think you should point out to your DH is that if he is really worried that his son will stop visiting if DH stops giving him money, then he needs to realize he's paying for company.  And that's what whores are for.  Explain to him that he's basically paying someone to give him attention.  And that he needs to take a step back and decide if that's the kind of relationship he wants with his son.  And if it is - you both decide what the hourly rate will be - $50/hour for each visit? $100/day?  what?  because honestly, that's all it is - a business transaction for his son.[/quote]
