I mean im paying rent and all the bills and giving my mom money when i can to watch her daughter since he doesnt give me money for her to be in a daycare. when my daughter is low on pampers and wipes i tell him she is in need of them and he tells me i will bring them tomorrow, then tomorrow comes and he doesnt bring them. I feel he is a grown *** man and shouldnt be reminded of what his daughter needs. I am very overwhelmed financially and im struggling to make ends meet. Just dont know what should i do next. I really wished he could understand my points of view because i hate to have to miss days off work to be in a court for bs.
Your daughter's dad is failing to see that his daughter must live somewhere and that involves rent or a mortgage payment--you are providing a home for his child. Take him to court and get it legal and in writing. It is for her protection and yours. He should carry life insurance too, and she should be the beneficiary.
Thanks for this!
