Hi Guys. 25 years old with 5yr son. My ex is being in a sense a, "bully" and using her rights with my son to be nasty and manipulative when it comes to arrangements. No co operation, all on her terms I.e she can take him on holiday, I can't. She refuses to make any effort for my son to see his father and is happy to rub in the fact she has a new man to raise our child. I am sick of being treated like this...I have, this month turned off the Β£ tap until I start getting cooperation and respect when it comes to our boy - I have always seen our child 6pm-8pm every Thursday since being broke up 2.5years, and have him every other weekend for 24hrs also. I have always paid Β£36PM above the CSA recommendation of Β£124. I hate to use the money for our son as leverage, I have to do what I feel is right and this is the only way out I can see.
Am I breaking the law?
My new partner wants me to go for the overpaid maintainence?
What are my options?
Massively appreciate any advise π
TT
