He spent TG alone, and now he'll be alone on Christmas. It's heartbreaking...
At the same time he is reaping the results of choices he is choosing to make. I don't know that I will ever understand the WAS.

I spoke to an attorney this morning. She said I could either file an order for child support with the attorney general's office, or I could file for divorce myself and get temporary orders of support.
My original plan was to assume H would pay child support, but my mother insists I can't trust him. So, I filed the papers with the AG to have the CS attached from his pay.
Should I warn him? I feel sick and scared. Even if we were to reconcile, how could we when I am blindsiding him with something like this. I can hear the I knew I couldn't trust you already...

How about this... H, you said you were getting your own bank account. Because I want to make sure I have access to money for the kids, I filed a case for child support with the AG's office.

Close... would this work better?
"You said you were going to get your own bank account. I want to make sure that the kids are protected while we work through this, so I filed a case for child support with the AG's office."
