I may be in the minority, but think what that $5000 you spent on attorney's fees could have paid for.....

Your ex can drag this out until at least one of the children is 18, then agree to increase the child support on the basis of ONE child that is a minor and probably wind up paying less anyway.

At this particular time, is it worth it? And you are incorrect, your ex HAS been financially responsible for his kids and on YOUR terms. He's paid what you stipulated to and takes his parenting time according to the agreement.

Having raised two kids by myself, I KNOW the expense of it and I KNOW what it's like to have the other parent offer NOTHING extra. There's a suck it up factor when you have the kids and although you've decreased your child support voluntarily, it's time for you and your DH to suck it up.

If you had looked ahead and realized that your expenses would increase, you should not have made a **deal** for less child support.
