[quote=Anonymous] The OP has not commented on my suggestion to have the grandparents involved more often, or more financially. Surely they must know/see you are in a bind? Can they send more money (for a housekeeper?) or can they visit more often (to relieve the AP of some very demanding responsibilities? Flying in frequently for short trips is expensive but what if they came for 2 or more weeks at a time and relieved the AP of 10 or so hours per week for a short time? When my sister's scumbag ex- husband refused to pay much child support, I went out and got a 2nd job specifically to send her the money. I mention this just to illustrate that someone in the family must be concerned enough to jump in with time, effort, or money. My father put off his retirement for 5 years so he could start a college fund for his grandchild. I know the OP has sole physical custody, but are the other grandparents allowed to be involved at all? [/quote]
