Hello again,
New problem to share and need advice on. MY ex is ow saying I can have my son in the week. However, I have to sort and pay child care out. The problem is. She knows I can not afford child care with going through an IVA. It is her attempt to stop me seeing him. She claims all the benifits so I am stuck on what to do. I know I can get child care vouchers through work but even then I can not afford the costs with living. I am not a claimer and have said to her she can have everything regarding claims. But now she has done this I need help and advice on what I can do. I want to see my son as much as possible. but now she is playing games of 'well you can see him as oftern as I like but I got to pay for it.
What do I do?
As usual you guys are always helpful ad give good advice so ay help with this matter is great.
Hello Mate,
She is trying isn't she Lol
Talk about give with one hand and take with the other, I would carry on as you have been go to mediation and get an agreement and then get that agreement made legally binding or you will be to and throw throughout.

That she is. But hey life is not aloud to be simple. lol. To make it better it is all because I will not keep her cats any longer. lol. Why is it harder with animals? lol.
That is what I am hoping to do. More of waiting again for the assessment to come back to see what is said and happens. Do you know how long you have to wait after the assessment till you get the paper work through so can start the ball rolling. Been over a week now and the mediator said she would do it straight away.
Hi,
I don't mate I'm afraid, Just sit tight, easier said than done I know.
