Okay, my daughter is really sick with strep throat right now, and both my girls need to go to the dentist. My husband and I pay 220.74 per month for medical insurance on my girls, and well now his company no longer has dental. So the dentist tells me that they need payment upfront for services before they can see the girls. So I call their real dad...he calls me back, and I told him what was going on and I asked if he is sure that he sent the child support payment in....... Here is a little background... My ex is over 18,000.00 behind on child support. He has made a total of maybe 7-10 payments in almost 7 years. He just swore up and down last week that he sent something in. I was a single mom most or our 6 year marriage, because he would stay for a few months and then gone again. I was a full-time single mom, held a full-time job, and for about a year I also went to college full-time after we totally split in 2000. In 2004 I married my husband now,and well I'm aggrivated. My husband was paying 700 a month for his own son, plus helping take care of my two,and my ex won't do anything! ...And the story continues: So I ask him (my ex) if he really sent the payment in because we could really use it right now for the oldest daughters meds, and both the girls need to go to the dentist. My oldest had a tooth that had a filling in it break in half, and my youngest has a puss pocket on her gum. So he has the nerve to say "That's what was so important?" I was like, Hello these are our kids I'm talking about!!! What is more important? So he proceeds to lie and say he gave the support office a payment last Thursday, and that there is nothing he can do so deal with it! ..UGGH talk about being upset...My husband now cares more about my children then their own father does. I'm just so sick of this and I wish he would just help out once in awhile. I would be happy with 20 bucks a month. At least then it would show that he cares, and is making an effort! Also I called the support office, they haven't received anything. What would you do...I need all the advice and help I can get on this one.
