My ex and I have a standard agreement when it comes to daycare reimbursement - I reimburse proportional to my income compared to hers. Given our disproportionate incomes because my ex only works part time, that reimbursement is nearly 100%.
She is the custodial parent and I have visitation.
Our eldest is old enough to stay home for the hour between school and her return from work, and so normally only needs daycare services for half days for our youngest.
She has decided to go on a vacation without the children. They'll be staying with me, but I still need to work.
As a result, we need full time daycare for the week for both children. I have agreed to cover our youngest (as I conceded that it would be likely that he'd be there anyway), but I'm having a real problem justifying reimbursing her for our eldest.
What say you?
