Just because my ex is on benefits, I can’t get the money I need

My ex doesn’t contribute to our sons life . i have sometimes asked and he will give something but he will never say does he need anything .

He told me its upto me think i should have done it more often . he hasn’t worked for 10 yrs so he doesn’t have to pay.

I think they should take at least 5 pounds a week off fathers on benefits to make them see they have to pay . i was told by csa if on benefits and he stay more than 52 days in that year i can’t claim anything is this right?

  1. @Emma, Becky’s comment wasn’t really harsh.

    It was pretty helpful.

    Person A: He only gives money when I ask, even though he’s on benefits.
    Person B: So, ask as and when needed.

    What’s harsh about that?

  2. i would like to add my sons father took me to court .. got all the legal aid he could get to tell lies and i had to pay £3.000 pounds legal fees he made my son a nervous wreck and i have to pick up the pteces simply . he can bully you with the system . he told me he would never work to pay for his son he has always moaned about spending anything even a meal on our sons birthday he said he couldn’t afford it . My husband step dad to my son pays for everything in his life . you need to have finanical support for your kids . shame on him and im not being harsh .. he needs to get off his backside

  3. ive lived on benefits hated it and got a job gave myself pride that i was doing something for my kids
