Is it all about HIS money??

Does it seem money is all his ex- wife cares about? Why do the ex-wives think they are entitle to ALL his money?

I am so happy your story was published!! From the comments I can see that it's really hitting home for a lot of people. I can only hope this is a stepping stone to reform and that every other father jipped out of money and time will have the courage…

LeeAnn Nelson commented on Second Mommy's blog post 'Secrets'

Wow! This is hard because your SD is so young and impressionable. Interesting just after she starts calling you “mommy”, her mother starts in with this junk. I am sure it's due to jealously and fear that you will take her place. Which we all know is…

That is disgusting! Greed is truly the root of all evil. Are you all surviving? or are you picking up the financial slack in the family? I was doing so for a while, but now my income is very limited. It's a terrible place to be especially, when you…

The same thing happened to my husband in Polk County, we live in Orlando though. His ex is an attorney. DH lost job, I paid the health insurance $600 per month. He found a job but it was less than half of what he was making. Judge said, they gotta e…

About Me:

I have been married for 2 years to my husband John. We were married, (7months after we meet), on the beach by our home in New Smyrna Beach, FL. We had our first child about 17 months later on Nov 29, 2007. MY husband has 3 wonderful children from his first marriage and my stepchildren love their new little brother. The kids are 12, 9 & 7, 2 girls and a boy. (see photos posted) All are blondies w/ blue eyes, James our newest addition is olive skin with brown eyes. To watch them all play together is quite the sight. I love it when people think they are all mine, I tell them I look great for having 4 kids don't I? (with a big smile)

The only downside to our happy family are stuggles with John's ex wife. The issues can be quite irritating at times. I decided to join this networking site to gain some insight on how to cope with some of the issues. As well as give some advice to those who need it. (I dated a man for 4 years with a crazy ex-wife as well as dealing with my husband's pain in the butt ex-wife. Both, by chance are named Michele!!)

To blow off some steam, I created ex-wife T-shirts for those new wives who want to silently make a point to those ex-wifes who think they still control their (ex)husbands. It's more for amusement then making money. (see site below)

One big issue for us is no flexibility with the schedule, we see the kids Thursday nights, Tuesday afternoons and every other weekend. This is to accommodate the exs 2 day a week work schedule. (she's a lawyer) During the summer we would love more block time, but instead it's always back and forth between houses. We only get one full week in the summer with the kids. (as well as all day tues & fri, thursday overnights and everyother weekend, whew...)

My husband plays a huge role in his kids' lives, but his ex fails to acknowledge this and refuses to allow him to see the kids outside the divorce agreement schedule. (it saddens my heart)

Thanks for allowing me to share- every little bit helps these day.

Father's Rights Re: Child support. My husband was on the news.

Okay ladies, here's your time to help a friend in need. My husband was on the news a month or so ago. (Orlando local news) Since then the story was picked up by Glenn Sacks and is posted on his website. I will post both links for you to see the news click and follow the stories.

Well, of course there are a ton of blog postings. Many very supported of our situation, but also those who are on his ex-wives side (her friends and family) and a lot of the newest ones are nasty, hateful and angry. The… Continue

Child Support In Our Current Economy

My husband has been fighting for a reduction in his child support payment for over 2 years! He was fired from his 5yr contract position after selling his company. Cause of termination is irrelevant, but regardless of what the law states and after waiting a year to go to trial, instead of a reduction his support was increase from $2200 to $2500, this was to account for arreages. His income is currently zero. He appealed his case, which we’re still waiting on to be heard. In the meantime, when he… Continue

At 12:06pm on December 9, 2009, LeeAnn Nelson said…: Thank you so much for your support. Overall, I think the hard times have strengthen our marriage, but it doesn't mean I still don't get crazy with anger over the ex. I just found out our story was picked up on a few other sites, which I'm going to read and post. I am really hoping national exposure will make a difference and help other families. Regardless of what is said about us, I know in my heart the court system is bias and something has got to be done. Many ex-wives are vindictive and spiteful, and their judgement is clouded with jealously and hurt feelings. I believe lawyers are playing a role driving a wedge between families. My husband almost got shared custody until his ex's lawyer got involved and made her change her mind. Why not push for shared custody? That IS what's best for the children. Thank you again! I will keep the blog updated on how things turn out. & Please don't hesitate to post a comment on the Ch9 news if you feel comfortable doing so. I'm doing my best to rally support and am hoping we can get one of ABC's national news shows to pick the story up (like 20/20) .

All my best to you too!!

I cannot imagine how horrible it must have been to finally get your day in court only to have someone so bias say "deal with it". This is so outrageous and I hope that your appeals are heard and it is all dealt with in a much better, more practical manner! It really re-iterated how bias the court system is when it comes to mothers, custody, and parenting time. I fail to see the bigger importance of having a female vs male raise children as I know BOTH have life lessons to teach them. I hope things get better for you!!

ps: your children are beautiful!!!

It turns out that its actually the payroll company that does the country clubs check that did it wrong. I guess they've never had anyone have child support automatically taken out, so they didn't know the rules. He's getting it taken care of today though. It's just another hurdle to get through :) Too bad the mistake can't be reversed once it happens.

It felt good to write everything down. I had a hard time making it coherant. Have a good trip. Talk to you soon!!
