OK so I work very hard for MY paycheck and I think I am justified that I want my ex to pay child support for his child.  The money is NOT for me...it is for my child.  Yes, him paying child support does open up MY money from MY paycheck for ME.  Who in the world is he to not pay child support because he thinks his child support went to getting me a new haircut or dinner out.  I mean come on when the court factored our child support they looked at both my paycheck and his to determine the amount of money that our child requires for upkeep.  They then took that number and saw that I made more and only require him to provide 30% of her upkeep.  So yeah I am going to get a little upset when he quits his job and stops paying child support.

M stupid ex has stopped paying his child support, he's never paid it regularly anyway!  It makes me furious!  It's also none of their business what the money is being used for.  Grrr!  My ex also hasn't seen my daughter or had any interaction since she was 1 she is now 6 1/2!  So, I know how you feel mama!
