"This coming from someone who offers mucho advice to parents with teens to which she has no experience?"
_______________________________________________
This was wrong of me to say. You don't necessarily have to have raised a teen to offer advice. I just wanted to apologize for being snarky.

Funny, most people with class don't go around telling others that they have it...it's really not that classy. But hey, if you want to feel superior and classier than the strangers on this forum, I hope you have a great life.

It's a sign of an unhappy person who has to brag a lot. They have to build up their own self worth by seeming that they are better than others.

Bingo matilda. :)
Btw - I spoke to XH. He's agreeing to the terms of my proposal. At least that's what he says today, we'll see how it goes in court tomorrow.

My hope is whatever his motivation may be he follows through this time. Like I said everyone wins when he starts making the effort to support his son both financially and with his time. I really do hope it works out.

PM- you have something that NOT all CP's have- the ability to see the other side because you have been on the other side.
Do I think JL's ex not paying CS is RIGHT? NO. Do I think it's right that some CP's don't contribute financially to their children and they aren't held responsible in the least? No.
I also can see both sides, because I have a DH who has ALWAYS paid CS on time, every time, but BM has worked $5k/year jobs and has had 2 more children with 2 more men and didn't until recently get a real job.
She was living off CS for a time, living off of state aid for several years---- no one forced her to make the $20k/year she USED to make. when she went to court for MORE CS from DH- she got it even though she wasn't working and wasn't contributing nothing towards that child. Fair? No.

I hope the same, thanks for your support.
I'm not expecting him to meet his financial obligations, alll I have to go by is his history, and that isn't saying much.
But you never know.
