I have two kids by my ex. When we seperated, he was fully aware that I had absolutely NO source of income, aside from a little child support I received for one of my oldest sons from a previous relationship.
Yes he was a great dad, and he would give me money here and there when he had it, but I needed money every single month, and because our kids were young, I could not work, and he would not keep them when he wasn't working. I had no babysitter or daycare available to me....so I filed for child support . but he still didn't pay consistantly, however he did pay sometimes when he could. there were alot times I got no child support from him ! and eventually I had to file criminal non support charges...
so now he has a felony on his record and is mad at me, and says he will now have a harder time finding a job... I do feel bad about this, but when I filed the charges I felt deperate, because I had no money, and no child care. but I didn't want to ruin his life either...
Was I wrong ?
