To be pissed off and not know what to do?

Exdh left 8 years ago, we have two dc.
He is very much an in and out father, sees them often for a few months then disappears for weeks at a time, so all in all not great.

I applied for cms 2 years ago as I’d had enough of struggling to cope on my own, anyway he has another child who he lives with and I’ve just received a letter to state that said child’s dm has made a claim for cms, whilst they are living together making out that they aren’t.

I know he has a responsibility towards all his children, but this really smacks of pettiness and a dig at me.
I don’t get on with either of them and there is a hell of a back story, which I don’t want to get into. But am I right to be pissed off at this? There has been no offer to help out nor be around more so that I’m able to work more to bring extra money, and I am just bloody raging.

That isn’t going to matter the amount will still be discounted.

Its really not just about the amount as I don’t want to seem like that’s all I’m interested in, it’s the lies that has got me riled up and the fact I know it isn’t for their child.

Report them. They are trying to take from others who genuinely need the money.

Who do I report it to Cms?

I am so stressed, this is just another thing in a long line of crap that has been thrown at me and my dc.
It honestly makes my blood boil.
