I Am Divorced

So my divorce agreement says my X is supposed to pay half of the children’s daycare fee when I work. I have a home business, therefore I need someone to care for my 2 year old during my working hours. However, he is refusing to pay because he says I don’t need to hire a daycare for me to work at home. Really?

Don't expect him to willingly do anything. The problem is that by the time you're done paying lawyers, it's going to cost you more than you get back. I've seen this happen over, and over. I wish the world was fairer, and people realize that they should not be punishing those they once loved, and loved them back. I am not saying that bad behavior should be rewarded, but generally speaking, it's about being in differences of opinion, rather than malice.

What disappoints me every time I see this kinda stuff is.... it’s for the kid, His money... your money... the source doesn’t matter... it’s the child. The child’s care has nothing to do with how the marriage went down...
You cannot work from home and watch a 2 year-old at the same time. The agreement says he has to pay half. Talk to your lawyer again. You are not being unreasonable. Sheesh.

I have, and his lawyer is saying I’m lying about the daycare to collect money from him. Such as BS. We needed daycare when we were running the business together. Now I’m running the business on my own. @PoetryNEmotion
LoL... you may need to remind him that if you're going to make any money someone needs to watch the tiny. What an fool. just tell him he can take the little one to work with him and see how that works out.

We now live in two different states so I asked him to take the baby with him for a few months until I get the business rolling if he doesn’t want to pay for the daycare.(I was bluffing of course.) He said no. @nonsensiclesnail
@MyNewBeginning I'm sorry your dealing with this at all, and sorrier hes making things more difficult. I hope he figures out the whole parental responsibility thing does not stop when hes not in the same place.

Just go to the country and have them automatically pull it from his paycheck. I think it’s just a form. You’re decree stipulates the amount. They then send to you and you never have to deal with his ass on this subject.

@Livingwell county, not country. Spellcheck!

sounds like something for the court to decide, a lot of people have a home based business so that can look after the kid(s) themselves.

My business requires me to work in a home photo studio and lots of labor work. It makes it hard to take photos when your two year old is running around in front of the camera and picking up objects that need to be photographed. @RoxClymer

Another example of why you were right to divorce him
