I was wondering if anybody had any advice on the following.
I split up with my daughters mum when my daughter was approximately 2 years old (we were never married) My daughter is now 15 and a half and spends a minimum of 3 nights with me per week. I have always paid her mum the amount we agreed and have never missed a payment, in fact I also pay for almost everything else i.e. horse riding, clothes, social event etc. Her mum doesn't take her anywhere, not even doctor appointments or the orthodontist, it is always down to me. The CSA have never been involved.
My question is that my daughter wants to live with me full time when she is 16 (she has told her mum this) and I have been told that because I haven't got "parental responsibilities" her mum can disagree, I believe her mum is only worried about loosing the money I pay her. How would do I stand if my daughter moves in with me when she is 16 and I stop the maintenance payments? I would not want to go to court over this as we have always been amicable towards each other and I wouldn't want to drag my daughter through this.
Any help would be grateful. Thank you.
