The ex's father sent my son a fifty dollar gift card, I used it to buy my son art supplies, underwear, socks and a toy. Now I am being accused of "stealing" his gift card, I am being threatened with charges of identity theft for not giving my son his card to use as he pleases. Excuse me, my son is eight years old, he cannot control the funds in his possession, and yet these people have nothing better to do than to threaten me with fraud, I am reminded once again why I am divorced from this person. The ex just called me, telling me that I'd "better" talk to his father if "I didn't want to be arrested and brought up on charges against you stole Alex's credit card and committed identity theft." Excuse me? Its a bloody AmEx gift card. I've done nothing but get on with my life, stay away from them and raise my children as best as I can. I don't do drugs, I don't even drink, I don't bring strange men home, I don't hit, yell or mistreat my children

I've had enough, I've put up with it for seven years and even though I knew I could and should file an injunction, I didn't trust my instincts and do so, now I'm trusting those instincts and taking these threats and this ugly evil man and his father to the wall. My children do not deserve to live a lifetime of misery and pain, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Wow. I read your questions and your blog. You've been through hell, girl. Keep your head up and don't lose the real you. You seem like a strong woman. I wish you all the best. I hope you find love and hapiness with a perfect gentleman because that is what you deserve.

Its only obvious that; that man is still too immure for his own actions. I wish there could be some how I can explain why men are so dumb sometimes, but i cant. And you are right the children that come out of the relationship show have nothing to do with what goes on between the parents, but then some people both men and women use there own kids as "bate" and that's the worst thing they can do EVER! And by him getting heated up over 50.00 send it back too him and tell him that his money isn't welcome if you cant go shopping for your 8 year old son. Like an 8 year old is old enough to drive them self's to the store or even know what to buy things they really need not candy or junk food ( i know if i gave my 8 year old nephew 50.00 he would buy yugio cards and chips and candy.) Just let time pass and everything will be okay in the end.
Men will be Men and that's what all Women love.

you are right!! enough IS enough.. you dont deserve to be treated that way.. anyone accusing you of fraud is an idiot!! give an 8 year old a $50 gift card, and you'll find him with 50 bucks worth of candy.. and then you will have a hyper kid and a hefty dental bill.. good for you standing up for yourself!!
i dont think you will have anything to worry about if they try to press charges against you.. the judge will probably laugh at your ex and his father.. they both sound like @$$holes to me.. you have my support girl!!

I don't think they can do that. The card was sent to your son, a minor whom you are in legal custody of, so it would seem to reason that you have an amount of control over his finances, including gift cards. And it was spent on the child, not yourself.But I'm not a lawyer so you might want to check with one.

you should have spent all the money on "fun stuff" for your kid. socks and underwear are your responsibilty. the card was given to him with intentions of spending it on fun kid stuff, not bare necessities you should be providing...

My ex no longer has rights to his child. He surrendered them so he wouldn't have to pay child support and my husband adopted her.
I'm still dealing with his stupid ***.
Good luck.

In my never to be humble legal opinion, you ex and his father are on crack.
