Child Split Custody

on

Being divorced has it advantages and disadvantages, I can't believe I am saying that! Anyhow, today was Madalyn's birthday and she is spending it with mom. I was invited but I felt weird about it and I am scared to give Madalyn the wrong impression that mom and dad may get back together. (yes I tend to over analyze or maybe look for an excuse :-) )

Well apparently I am the proud new owner of half the bill for the party she had. I even got the call before the party was over that I owed the money. I don't recall agreeing to it but I am also non confrontational when it comes to Madalyn because I don't want her to be hurt by my stubbornness.

I don't know why my ex feels I need to pay for half of everything. I take care of Madalyn and if she can't live in her means then she should cut back.

I would of been happy to pay some money if I was asked up front, not after the fact.

Oh well it is not worth fretting over. My little girl is growing up! The big 4!

Happy Birthday Madalyn!

YIKES!!! I hope the bill wasn't too big.....and most importantly, I hope Madalyn had a great time at her party.

The bill wasn't too bad, actually pretty cheap, $20 is my portion. It just bothers me sometimes. Her mom will go out and buy her some clothes and say I owe her for them. I don't do that with her, I don't get it.

Yes, Madalyn sounded like she had a great time. I miss her!
