WAW, is there hope?

Hey BTrow and East TN, thanks for your responses.

Btrow, when i have them i need the clothes and don't want to have to go buy them again. Meanwhile she would have not expended any money and can apply the child support to fund a new house (eventually). I agree they are the kids clothes, but i have the kids quite a bit thankfully and need to cloth them. When we had the kids split (i had the 3 y/o and she the 13 mo old), I went out and bought 3 ppair of shoes. She went out and bought 1 pair for each of them, but brings the kids to me with no hoes. She then emails me saying she knows i have sandals, and can i send them over since the shoes she bought make the 3 y/o's feet sweaty. If i give in here, i'll be giving in forever so i'm setting this boundary so the line doesn't keep coming in my direction.


EastTN, I changed the locks after about a month of her moving out because the W's kids left the doors unlocked three times while they were clearing out their things. Two of those times the doors were left open.

Before that she had unfettered access to the house and she took almost all the kids clothes. At that time i had the 3 y/o (she had the younger one). I went out and bought some more clothes and also requested she give back some since she didn't have the 3 y/o at the time. She complied, but didn't give me everything. She now gets child support, but still comes to me for these little things. There are two ways of looking at it:
1) She is asking me to support her in ways beyond the child support we agreed on and is pushing her limits.
2) Its her funny way of reaching out to me to get a response. My buddy keeps telling me don't even respond to her requests, but this is kid related technically so i feel i have to.

Yesterday I had them for Wednesday night. She drops them off and says they have lice and were treated. Not sure where they got that from, but it certainly wasn't here and i told her so. Being a little gun shy from so much court action, I'm a little concerned she will try and put that on me.


Cristy, I'll have to go check out the specials. Money is real tight right now until at least the credit card closes. That way i can defer payment for the closing cycle plus the 25 days until its due. The lawyers were expensive and although i was able to stagger the payments, the last of the heated battle payment are getting paid off.
