I need to contact legal aid to see about revising the tax dependent part of our D settlement. He's going on three years since seeing Louisa. I want to see if I can get the dependency status switched to me annually, as opposed to every other year.
Is he paying child support? If so, I rather doubt you can change this without his consent, as it's really about the financial obligations not the social ones.
If, on the other hand, he's not paying his child support, you should have an excellent case.
Congrats too on sticking the the Debtors Anonymous stuff. Can you start putting some money away from side jobs to save up for a car? Did you ever look at the mrmoneymustache website?
As for your mom - best not to take anything more from her, the strings attached are too much. And although she whined, she will probably respect you more in the long run for making the right financial decision for you (or not - she's pretty toxic after all.) If she's really dying to see the girls she knows where you live.
