Hi. Just joined after heating good things about this site.
I wondered if anyone can help or give me a mother's perspective on the following:
My x and I are recently divorced and we have 3 kids. Im actually paying more maintenance than I should be as my son stays with me regularly but I haven't contested this as my x has turned very nasty and I don't want her to stop me seeing my 10 year old son altogether.
My son plays football and his subs were due. My x refuses point blank to pay them in an attempt to get more money out of me and a total disregard for my son's feelings as my x will often use him to pass messages and ask for money even though I've officially asked her to stop doing this, both personally and via my solicitor.
I even offered to pay these subs and taken the money back via the maintenance over a number of pay days....but she still refused.
So on my last pay day I deducted the football subs from her maintenance and paid the subs.....I have receipts.
Has anyone been in this situation? My x is completely irrational at the moment so I'm expecting repercussions.
