So much to read! lol

I know this has become a generic discussion but I'm going to speak regarding mine.

As a CP I consider CS to cover part of the kids food, utlitites, gas, clothes, and extras. That includes school lunches, field trips, carnivals, book fairs, sports, and yearbooks. IF ex wants to spend extra on it I'mnot going to argue but I'm not going to ask him to.

I figure my budget on my income. Can I afford things without CS? If I can then I go ahead because I never know when he will be without a job. With CS helping on the above items, I can spend my income on whatever I want. I really have no idea how much the kids utilities, food etc cost because they are never gone. I do know that OS can eat in a week what I would eat in a month.

Cassie reminded me that when Ex was going to school (for his 2nd degree) I helped out and bought food when the boys went over or rented a few movies, games whatever so they had fun. When he needed help he was much nicer. I even went over and packed up the kids stuff when he was evicted so he didn't lose what he had for them because he didn't have time to pack it. I stored his stuff in my garage for over a year until he got a new place to take it to.

I did not do the same thing when he decided he didn't want to do the career he got the 2nd degree for and went for his 3rd degree. The deal with the 2nd was I help him and then when he got on his feet I would go to school to get my first degree. Ya, know that he has it and is banking the money...He doesn't even take the kids. But I'll figure it out. I don't need him but the kids do. If they didn't I would never speak to him or take anything from him again.

CS is Nebraska takes both incomes for a combined income and has a chart of income and number of kids, they take the cost of raising the kids from that and figure the % of each parent contributing to the combined income and that % of the cost is your contribution. So if I made more I could easily end up paying ex CS.

I would never send my kids with less than they needed. I want them to go to their dads and enjoy themselves. I really do try to put the kids needs before my feelings.
