Exactly. He has to pay! Ex and I never went trough courts. I think at the end it worked out well and fair and we always got along. But there were times when it was problematic with how my ex handled things. For example as she got older he decided it was a good idea to deposit money on our kids personal account rather than giving it to me not specifying it was child support and was not her allowance. Mind she was excited to blow hundreds of dollars in a book store in one weekend lol. Luckily he quickly corrected it. Then sometimes he would pay way over the amount but then way less, claiming that it evens out. Overall it was a hassle. We only managed co parenting because we always got along. Otherwise it's very difficult. I think especially if parents don't get along it's better to go through official channels, courts and so on.
