Hi
I’m new here but looking for advice.
I seperated from my partner 18 months ago and we agreed at the time that he would take our son 50/50 - 4 days on, 4 days off to suit his shift pattern. During that time dad has had multiple girlfriends and places to live. He’s now living with someone he’s know 5 months and subsequently my Son lives there on his 4 days.
During the past 12 months i’ve paid for the clothes for both houses and school trips etc. We agreed that now he lives in a new house i would have £150 per month as per the Gov calculator and i’d pay for clothes still .
He now won’t pay £150 per month yet i’m still expected to pay his clothes , trips, football fees etc . I’ve started a claim with the child maintenance to let them decide as i’m getting mixed responses on line. I was very honest with the calculator and said that my son sleeps there half of the time. at the moment i’m told by my ex i can’t move house as ge won’t allow my son to move school. I’ve been added to a whatsapp group with him , his new partner and his mum and dad and i can only communicate through that. I feel very upset and feel that i have to run my plans with my little boy by 4 people for approval. I’m not bothered if child maint come back with a an amount of zero to be honest but i don’t want to have to pay for everything for both houses! nor do i want to be told where i can and can’t live! I’m at the end of my tether
