Hey everyone, I live in Ontario Canada, I’m 26 years old with a 5 year old daughter. Me and my ex fiancée separated a year ago and just recently she’s informed me that she’s been looking into lawyers to get child support from me. I’m not upset about it in any means and I’m not a confrontational person but I need some help. I have my daughter on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and every other weekend. She’s under my health insurance, I pay for all of her extra curriculars and most of her school supplies, fieldtrips, pizza days ect. I have a really good paying job and so does she, I make between 110-130k a year and she’s sitting around 80-90. Even though we’re separated she drives a brand new suv that I bought and currently pay for (all in my name), pay her insurance and phone bills every month and all of that combined is $1,261 a month. I feel in a way that I’m being taken advantage of and that comment she made saying shes debating child support court rubbed me the wrong way a little bit. I didn’t react in a negative way and just said “okay, thank you for letting me know” but it does deep down bother me that every time I see her she has her hair done from a salon, nails and eyelashes are always done, always buying new luxury items yet wants more money from me for our daughter… also to add; this whole thing stemmed from me finally bringing myself to buy a new truck because my old one was starting to fail and rust out.. I was told that I could have been putting that money towards our daughter and not buying a new truck… is there any advise out there or idea on how things will go if she goes through with it? I feel at a loss and can use any encouraging words, support or advice. Thank you so much
