I am a divorced NCP of three kids. My ex gets a huge CS check each month of 3k.

I am a divorced NCP of three kids. I am only allowed by the court to see them every other weekend. My ex gets a huge CS check each month of 3k. Yet, my daughter each month says things like "Dad its your turn to get me new shoes." That always makes me so angry because she is getting so much money. Lately, I thought about it and said to her, "If I get you new shoes they are going to stay at my apartment for when you come to visit."

How do other NCP's handle this?

Jeez....she's your child if you didn't separate what would you be doing??
You separated from your wife not your kids
Kids are expensive
And whatever your wife gets is 100% for the kids..
I agree but at 3k a month , I think she is good!

@AmazingPoet: how many kids do you have
For me that would not be much
@MightyAphrodite: 3 oldest turns 18 this year. $3,000 is a lot of money. Keep in mind I have to pay taxes on the CS she does not. Thats after taxes.

@AmazingPoet: oh..jeez..things are different in Ireland

At least your oldest should be able to get a pt job abd buy herself some things
