Sun, I hope your son decides to get out and get a job. Why hasn't he done so yet? Since you are struggling financially, that would really help you out. Have you told him how much it would help? As for his dad giving him money for Mother's Day.... he is 18... and capable of making his own money... my 8yo didn't ask his dad, he worked and did chores for his grandma to earn money to buy me a gift and buy my lunch. I think you guys still need to have the mentality that you are getting NOTHING from your xh. I have a feeling my son knew that it would be fruitless to ask his dad, because he's broke.
