spending the money she gets for child support on my daughter

Forget about the money. It never hurts to take the high road. Focus on being the best parent you can be which includes not sabotaging the other parent. If you make life difficult or miserable for the other parent, it affects your daughter more than you know. Give freely of your money owed to the other parent so that it doesn't control you. Don't let the hate become more important than the love.

I am not sure of the question but I can say this for an example. My child's father seemed to think that I was not spending his $52 a week on our son so he did the most sensible thing (to him anyway) and stopped paying it. Well that was about 1 1/2 years ago. Now his license & registation is suspended. I am saying this to you because whether or not you think she is using the money you have to pay it anyway. As a mom I can say that it has been a few time that I may have put $10 worth of gas in my car with his money, BUT it didn't make me a bad person considering that $52 a week does not SOLELY take care of my son. I work 2 jobs and have been for years to care for my son and pay bills. My son is 11, wears a mens 10 shoe wears mens clothes and eats like a man. So basically if you ex is paying rent/ mortgage, gas & electric, water, and buying food it may be for herself (your ex) but rememeber your 7 year old lives there too and is using the same water, gas and eating food.

you have no say so as to where mom spends the money. it is unfortunate, but custodial parent can spend the money on anything but the children and courts don't care. the child support agency will tell you your daughter needs the money badly. been there and done that. good luck.

So, you want to seek full custody.
Bottom line, is your girl in danger. Suing for custody can get so nasty in the end everyone is f u c k ed especially the kids.
Is your daughter suffering or are you just p.o'd because mommy is sporting a new Fendi purse????
Think this through and IS IT really for your girl or for you.

I'm a single mother. My kids are adults now...I too had same issues with my ex saying he felt I wasn't spending the support on our kids..it got so ugly that we ended up in court. The judge had said to my ex..If your kids have a roof over their heads, and clothes on their backs, as well as not going hungry...that the kids mother is not going to the food bank, then that clearly says...SHE IS USING THE SUPPORT FOR THE KIDS!!! regardless if she is going out with her friends every other Saturday night. See...bottom line for my ex was, He didn't like the fact that I was getting on with my life, and the kids were adjusting as well. as said in some other answers I've read to this question...Its all about the kids, try to remain adults...the kids will come out the better for it...trust me! My ex and I are now good friends, and we chalk it up to a learning progress, unfortunately the kids had to endure the brunt of our mistakes.
