DS is 17 and has an interview for an apprenticeship. He needs some new clothes (nothing too expensive).
I have three p/t jobs which equate to a f/t wage and hours, DH gets ESA for a disability and also gets Child Benefit for our son. I live with our son and have not lived with DH for three years.
My issue has only arisen because I am really short of money. I am paying for DS's driving lessons and partially supporting our other son (who is in a few difficulties at the moment). Our other son is 19 and does not live at home.
AIBU to expect my DH to help out with the cost of interview clothes, since he receives CB for our youngest? My opinion is that, fundamentally, Child Benefit should be for the child.

Should DH pay?
