50/50 parenting nightmare

I just want people opinions on this or if anyone has been through this. When I divorced almost two years ago I just wanted it to all be over and not fight, so I foolishly agreed to things that if I had it all to do over again I would not. We discussed different custody options shared parenting, shared parenting with me being primary parent ect. My ex husband pushed hard for the shared parenting with no primary parent because with that the child support was $250, if I was assigned primary parent it wold of been $1200. I understood because that is alot of money, he agreed to pay 50% of all the kids bills and I agreed because I wanted to get along. Since then it has been a nightmare. The each of us paying 50% is in the decree, but what happens is he does not ever pay anything up front for the kids. If they are out of lunch money he will wait until the day they come back to my house and sent me a text saying the kids are negative in lunch accout and I need to send $. Then I have to handwrite him a request for the money and he gets 7 days to pay me his half. This happens for everything in two years I think I have wrote him 3 checks to pay him for half of their expenses. He refuses to take them to any Dr Appts, pay the Drivers ed registration, auto repairs absolutely everything. He texts or calls me daily to fight about every expense the kids have , he is verbally abusive. No joke on average I will get 20-30 texts a day telling me that he is broke cant afford this and that and that I have done all this to him by divorcing him. I just looked and I have saved every text since march 5 there are 784!! He will always pay his part on day 7 as the orders state, with the exception of a couple times he says the reciepts didnt make it, but I have to go through absolute hell to get the $. I have to deal with him more now then when married. Our youngest is 12 I cannot imagine going thru this hell daily for the next 6 years. I know it is hard to get a modification, but can I on grounds that we can not co-parent together? Im at a loss of how to deal with this. I have no more money to get a lawyer and do this all over Im still making monthly payments on the remainder of the divorce.
