Withholding Payment
Am I wrong for wanting to withhold partial payment to cover unplanned summer camp?
We pay child support for two kids to one mother. My spouse and the oldest child is going on a European trip which was planned for a few months. Instead of the mother adjusting her night work schedule, I have to keep the second child which was not planned. I decided to put that child in camp. Since I am not working and we paid for the European trip and we are keeping the kids for an entire month, I sent a text to the mother saying that I was withholding the cost of the camp from the next payment.
When the child support amount was set, she was not supposed to be working and she only wanted us to have the 2nd child every 3 weeks. Once everything was finalized, we got both kids EVERY weekend, even ALL holidays including Mother’s Day and most of the summers for the last 9 yrs!
