Why is this? kinda weird, is your ex a deadbeat dad? have your boys given up on him?
Your daughter is lucky. I buy my kids expensive clothes and shoes, the latest xbox bullshit, and take them places. Anything else, I make them do chores for money. (I try this but it's mostly a lie, lol)
Oh, I'm still married. He pays for the house, insurance, and my car (a fucking Lincoln, his choice not mine). But the kids are my expense mostly. Except for rare things like paying for my son to go to National competition this year. But I'm paying to travel there and the lodgings.
Deadbeat? Nah, they think he hung the moon. They don't ask him for money because he says no. Lol
I can't seem to get the 'no' down. I grew up poor and want them to have everything.
I'm probably raising entitled assholes.
In all honesty what % of the overall household expenditure does the house, insurance and your car payment account for? if its ≥ 50% then I hate to break it to you but you should be paying for that extra stuff for the kids. Im not being presumptuous here nor is my question rhetorical in nature i'm just being honest while asking a question.
How is the kids time split between your homes? how much time do they spend with him? if its ≥ 25% and your getting all of that then id consider myself lucky, literally no male I know gets that.
Lastly do you get that alimony shit? we dont have it here (unless its offered by the male and thats only ever the case with really high net worth men).
