I'm another decent dad that is getting done over by cms and struggling to keep the house that my children live in when they come stay with me.
Today I woke to see on my wage slip that 567 pound has come out of my wage before it its my bank tomorrow without being informed of it or nothing.
I called them and they are no help at all.
My kids stay with me more than how they work the 1 night or 1- 2 nights a week system .
I work shift pattern of 6 on 3 off they stay the first 2 nights and sometimes the 3rd night depending if im on shipping the next morning or if im on night shift. ( court order does not state that extra night when it happens) and ex partner won't say that's the case.
They also stay 12 days in Easter and about 20+ days in the summer and their birthday nights etc .
What I'm trying to say is they stay alot more than what she's telling csa.
Today I have been upset and I've tried my hardest to make csa and my ex realise that I won't be able to cope and I'm worried that my mental health will be effected and me as my children's dad won't be the dad I have been and it worries and scares me cause I love them 2 kids of mine with all my heart.
I know there are dads like me some not as strong and I can see why but I need support and the government need to help paying dads who see their children.

How old are they?
That would be half of a monthly nursery bill. Without a single other bill.
