My ex sweet talked me into letting him carry the kids on his taxes. He said that if I gave him a divorce with no argument then we would get back together. I believed him cause we slept together 2 weeks before the divorce. We didn't get back together cause he was seeing someone else. I didn't know this til 2 days after the divorce. Now that I have meet someone new he refuses to let us carry the kids on our taxes. His mother and he called me a w***e over the phone cause of this. They both say that I cheated on him and he has the proof. I know that I didn't, so I would like to see this proof. He is just upset cause I know that he cheated 13 times and 1 of them will go to court with me to prove so. I have 2 kids by this man should I go through this again even if it is just to have my say in court?

stand up for yourself! Odds are he doesnt' want this to go to court any more than you do. You are right on this one.
The kids are your dependents, they live with you, and he is claiming them on his taxes? After I filed with the court I'd contact the IRS. If the kids are your dependents you have the right to claim them, not anybody else. Actually in most states you have to be seperated physically for several months before you can divorce. If you slept together 2 weeks prior to finalization you may want to go back to court anyway. You may have gotten a divorce in bad faith. Which is a big no no.

If you have the money to go back to court, then I say go for it! He's treating you like dirt and you let him get his way! He's ticked now cuz you finally are happy with someone else, so he's doing what he can to make you miserable. I am surprised that a judge let him take the kids on taxes when you are the one supporting them most of the time. So I would say do it if you have the money and know you can win! Good luck!

Are you the custodial parent? If so, I believe you claim the kids on your taxes. What did the divorce decree state?
My ex used to give me a hard time too. Once you have kids with someone, you are stuck with them for life. I have to smile in his face every time I see him, but I remember the a*s*s he was before, during and after our divorce.
Good luck.

You can't go back to court if you just got done with it. You need to wait a while, your probably stuck with it for a couple of years.
Try to live with your decisions. Take care of your kids. They need you.

You have to check your divorce decree on the taxes thing. On mine it is clearly stated who claims my child. He sounds very manipulitive and dangerous. Be careful.

If you chase a skunk to his den, and catch him, all you've got is a skunk.....if you're not careful, you get to stinking real bad as a result. Leave your "skunk" alone....he'll get what's coming to him in time. Don't take him to court, just to have your say in court.
