Child Maintenance

Hello! Hoping for some advice.
My XP, father of my child, has told my child that he pays child maintenance and as such I need to pay for stuff at his house. Like clothes, curtains, Knick knacks. Is there any where online that clears this issue up? I can’t find anything online.
He has always been a bit tight spending money on her but expecting me to buy a duvet set for his house is a new low!
What do you think?

It’s nonsense…in fact almost laughable!

Lol he says you need to buy stuff for his home when his child stays.

That money is to support the child when they are in your care. If he is unable to look after your child while in his care... Well then he can't have them.

My ex tried this, sent a list of things he required for his house. No hope, the money just a our covers half the nursery fees.

That's actually hilarious!! A judge who ordered contact would expect only you hand over your dc.. Not with a bag or a swash of fabric /wallpaper samples your ex can select you to order.. He is cf of the week for sure....
