[quote=Anonymous]No, camp is not a necessity and it is not child support -- I'm talking about not WANTING to pay for camp because it is not a necessity and not child support. That is wrong. I'm the PP who doesn't even get child support. I can't always afford "extras" like camp, but when I can, I pay for them. What if I said "if your father isn't paying for it, why should I?" That is wrong. I do whatever I can to provide the best childhood I can for my kids. Not everything in life is fair or even. How sad to not want to give as much as you can to your own kids because you can't stop comparing how much you give to how much the other parent gives. And again, if they weren't divorced they each would be giving 100%, because they would be functioning as a couple and all of their money would belong to both of them. I'm so glad I have had the experience of having a deadbeat as my DC's dad. It has taught me so much, and made me a better parent and a more competent, confident person.[/quote]
