Would it affect how much I get if I allow more nights?

July 20, 2014

I currently have a private arrangement with my ex husband for maintenance towards our son.

I was awarded sole custody, no shared access and he is allowed to have his son 8 nights per month.

My ex has now asked for 10 nights per month. Although I have not agreed, would it affect any of my possible CSA payments in the future and also custody arrangements. Many thanks.

    Ask yourself this question: what is more important “my full pocket” or my son having more time with his daddy that he needs in his life. if your question is only about the finances it speaks volume what you might really be concerned – money, not your son’s happiness. of course I don’t know your situation, and I will truly stand with you on this one, IF and only IF your ex-husband was violent to your son or drunkard, or taking drugs etc. however if the reason you are stopping your son to see your ex, is because you have a private vendetta on ex and are using your son to yank his chain, then shame on you. stopping or brainwashing child from his non-residential parent, whether it is a mom or dad should be made illegal and treated in category of Child Abuse. I went with such thing with my ex, however my son lives with me, and visits his mom when he wants… I don’t diss my ex in front of him, in the contrast of her, that does it very very often.

    I don’t know your individual circumstances so can only go on your post. Why on earth would the amount of money you get come in to your thinking when deciding if your son should spend more time with his dad. Surely your sons happiness should come before anything.

    Couldn’t agree with Dave white more. The question is, do you want your son to have a relationship with your ex and for your ex to have equal share of responsibility and upbringing of your son,as was originally intended I presume. But if money’s more important to you then why not give him no access and take all his money, the CSA will help you do that if you like.

    Another money orientated grabbing bitch that sees dollars IT can milk from the father more important than him seeing his child. You make me want to spit teeth. Grrrrrrrr
