Well, I listened to my mother...... and told my WW I would give her the minimum portion of her settlement now but I would not be doing anymore in the future until part of the D process. I already feel like a fool, but I think that I would look like a liar if I changed my mind and that would be worse. this is a lose lose situation. I already give her $$ to support the kids which she has maybe 15% of the time. I knew that it would probably be a complete loss, but it's really only a few days of pay. Oh well, cheap lesson to learn. Word of advice for me in the future, don't do anything.
