My husband had his sc and they reached an agreement. She was difficult right to the end and even her lawyer didn’t want to be around her. He can live with the decision. He paid a lump sum for school so she can’t come back for ANY other expenses. Plus it was agreed he will not change cs so he doesn’t even have to worry about advising of income changes. Save the “can’t negotiate cs away” because it’s section 3 support for an adult child living away from home.
The good news is that he had all this money put away so he won’t have a financial hit and that we are finally done with this shit. The bad news is that he still has no relationship with his kids. They are still being ugly about it. I hope that since the battle is over there won’t be ongoing garbage said about him. Her sc brief was ridiculous. I wouldn’t let him read it it was that bad. We are also trying to remind ourselves no more worrying about emails, preparing for court or having to endure facing her. He can work on his mental health and focus on his interests. He told me he was going to join a local organization I had been bugging him to look into. I wish he would join big brothers but that might be a stretch. He said no to a puppy (sniff) as we work all day.
The best part was that my family really wrapped their arms around him before the sc and he told me after that he had never felt so loved and supported by a family (other than his) in his life. We know what this is like from our parents and we know he is a good dad. It was a no brainer to support him.
Let’s hope we don’t have to worry about this again. I don’t expect her to give up on her campaign against him but at least if she realizes she needs him to pay for something his answer will be a big fat no!
