Ok just the other day my daughter was getting a lecture about screwing off in school. And she had the audacity to say then just send me to Vegas with my mom. I can't say that I was particularly surprised by this but I told her hey you know the deal you want to go. Your mom pays for it. She then responds to me that well if you pay her back the money you owe her then she'll be able to pay for it. Oh I gotta tell ya she fliped that switch in me. Anyway let me tell you about the money
back when I was with her mom I had a defaulted school loan and was not getting my tax refunds.
So because we were not married I told her to claim the kids on her taxes so that we would get the refund. Now it was understood that we wopuld share the mopney. But now because it supports her looking like a vitim she says that I owe her that money back. Now what I used was about 1500.00 of that and she got the rest which was more than that.
Now as I said she fliped that switch in me so I toss her a calculator and tell her lets see who owes who what. 63.00 a week x 4 weeks x 12 months x 4 years the answer is 9,072.00 that is the amount of support her mother now owes me,considering that she has not paid one penny since the order was put in place.
Now mind you that my math was flawed. I should have had her do it @ 63.00 x 52 weeks x 4 years which comes out to the more accurate amount 13,104.00. Again I ask do ya think that I was wrong here ?

Nope don't think you were wrong at all, your daughter is old enough to know the truth - if she is going to try to throw things in your face she needs to have all the details. Obviously your ex is still feeding her trash because she doesn't want to pay for anything including your daughter going there...
My oldest had the never of telling me a couple years ago that I never did or gave him anything and now his father is like the nearest thing to God on earth because he's been showing an interest and giving gifts and such. This is the man who for 16 years didn't send a penny of support, gift or even card to either of his 2 sons... I did the math on our case and it added up to over 72,000 dollars... but I kept those boys clothed, feed, roof over their heads, and although not always the greatest gifts they never went a birthday or Christmas without something.

WHooooaa ! 72,000 that certainly make mine pale in comparrison. It make you wonder how the heck the courts let it get to that point. But the good news is that I have recently been contacted by the Las vegas DA's offce so perhaps something will be done soon.
I know what ya mean about the food and clothes though it seems like these are not considered tangable to the youngings.

By far shes at falt. She should own up to her responsablity.Why does she live so far from her children.?I dont think i could ever live so far from my kids they would need money to come and see me. I say take her to court and get the money you deserve.
