Well said, I'm seriously worried for OP's son, Max; when Max hits 16, he'll disappear on his mother and her new husband to couch-surf with fake friends, next, he'll gravitate toward a loser girlfriend, only, to end up getting her pregnant, marry her for the baby, drop out of high school, work minimum wage jobs, move his girlfriend in on Laura and Tom, have another kid, by 18, and not only make Laura and Tom give up the child support, in order for him to pay for baby related expenses, and his girlfriend's maternity/pregnancy expenses, but also, make Evan and Emma his free babysitters/housekeepers, plus, make them give up their rooms, and move in with their bio-mom, so that, his girlfriend can have a nursery and daycare center.⚠️
If they do start abusing OP's son, someone will contact social services to take him and step siblings away, place OP's son in foster care, and his step siblings with adoptive families in other states.⚠️
My first thoughts. Manipulate the child into giving up his stuff because “step siblings don’t have as much as you/they don’t get the nice stuff you do and you care about them right?”
Life is full of inequalities. Some kids are pretty others aren't. Some are brilliant Some are talented and yes Some are born to wealthy parents. That's not for the pretty smart talented or rich to compensate those who aren't. Sorry. Sometimes life just sucks.
It’s that weird BS where the courts believe the child should retain the same financial advantages they had when the parents were together when at the less financially able parent’s new home.
@@rayxav Damn, if only that parent used the entire half of the year they don't have their kid at home and got a job or 2nd job then the child would actually have better standards as neither parent would be filling in for the incompetent parent
@ that seems to be the case in so many of these stories. “You have to help my stepkids because we don’t have enough money and I have to be home for them even though they are all school aged!”
Awesome father. Max's mother is ridiculous she is using her son to pressure his father for financial help. She married a dead beat and she is desperate to appease this man.
File for full custody as you only have one child and you are ONLY responsible for his wellbeing. If you can't feed them don't breed them. Laura manipulating Max into asking you to financially support her bed-warmer's litter is abuse in it's most abject form.
WTF where is it written that you have to take financial responsibility for someone else's children? Tell her to go get a job to take care of the extra expense. If I were you I would try for sole custody of your son.
Nah, if/when Max becomes ends up producing a baby with a rebel girlfriend, at 16, drops out of high school, the step siblings will have to stay home, and do all the babysitting, and housekeeping, while he and his girlfriend spend time with OP.
Wow, what a shameless money grab from OP’s ex and her deadbeat fiancé! Is HE contributing to Max’s expenses? Jeez, the unmitigated audacity of some people! 🙄
Yes. Get the court to demand a monthly accounting of how father's child support check is spent (plus additional funds for special needs - summer camp, school uniforms, trips, birthday parties (?)). They have certainly given him reason for concern!
I think you should have filed for full custody since they’re having financial difficulties. One less child in the house means more income. And how is she asking for more support when custody is evenly split? Keep detailed records of your expenses for your child and ask for one from the mom too.
@@bethanderson7467 My mother worked after her youngest was old enough to go to school. She was NOT a sugar mama. BTW, that job meant Dad didn't have to work two jobs anymore.
I find it funny that Tom would say 'as a father I'd make sure my children were supported... blah blah blah' yet he is demanding someone else support his kids
In the US, an evenly split custody of a child, results in NO child support payments to the ex wife, except in the case of extra support by one parent (e.g. health insurance payments).
Not true. Even in a split custody case if the salary difference between the parents is great, the parent earning more may be required to pay child support.
This is not true. I had 50/50 custody of my oldest child and still paid child support, in addition to providing health insurance. Child support can vary from state to state, and it only proves how ignorant you are to state otherwise.
It depends on the state’s formula for child support. In my state, the higher-earning parent may still owe the other. It isn’t based on the gender of the parents, but strictly on income and parenting time. The default is 50/50, but that’s not always the judgement. Parents with erratic work schedules or criminal histories sometimes get less time and a bigger support obligation.
@ yup. My boss is paying a LOT. They have 50/50 but they were married 14 years and she quit working when they got married. She was making 60k but going back into the workforce in your late 40 s is rough. I’m not sire she really thought the divorce out ahead of time. He makes 200k and his combined spousal support and child support is 4k a month. It will stop in four years though and not long after the child support will quit. His son wants to live with him and as soon as he’s 13 (1 year) he is legally allowed to decide that. By the time the money stops flowing she will be early 50s and the loss of income will be rough
Why on earth would anyone be expected to pay child support for an ex wife’s step children? Ridiculous. Get full custody of Max. The rest isn’t that complicated. The ex’s step children are not your responsibility. Done.
Does Tom have a job? Is it at least 37 hours a week? Is there a gambling or substance use problem at Tom’s house? Are the two actually using the funds you send for Max actually being used for Max? I’d ask the attorney if you can demand an itemized accounting of how they’re using the funds. See if you can demand Max’s funds be kept in a separate account that Tom cannot touch. Maybe see if you can get full custody. If you do get sole custody, Max’s mom will have to pay child support. Make sure anything you leave Max is strictly controlled by a third unbiased party. Also make sure you’re showing Max how to practice responsible spending & saving & how not to be manipulated by others. It’s almost 100% certain that mommydearest, stepdaddydearest & his two golden children will try to con/scam Max out of everything he inherits.
Hmmmm. Laura has 1 son. She remarried a dude, Tom, with 2 children, a boy and a girl. Laura and Tom do not have any children together. How does that make the children “step” anything?
Any children of Tom’s makes his kids step kids to Laura. Step brother and sister to Max. If they have children then half sibling to Max. If a fiancé only then no step anything. They are not anything to OP. Max is his son. No other blood relation to the other kids. No obligation.
you have more than enough to go for full custody. if your kids mental health is being affected because of this, thats more than sufficient to get full custody. judges dont play around with a child's mental health.
The fact that a grown man and father thinks that another man should finance his children’s activities is crazy to me! What kind of man is that. Not one I’d be marrying.
If the mom is worried about the environment of the children in her home, then she shouldn't have custody. Use her own words against her to get full custody.
1. Get your solictor to send a recap of your obligations to your son to your ex partner 2. Start recording everything and anymore requests annd threats from the ex 3. Start the process to get fulll custody of your child as it sounds as though they want to take it out on him. At no point in this do you try for full custody .
Oh hell, no, your ex-wife is just being greedy. You do not have to spend a dime on her stepchildren they have their own two parents and two sets of grandparents to support them. Take your ex-wife back to court and get full custody of the child. She cannot expect you to support her stepchildren if it’s that bad at her house and he needs to live with you.Sue them for parental alienation and defamation of character!
Tom is an AH deadbeat dad. In what world is it your wife’s ex-husband responsibility for financially supporting YOUR kids? Good luck with taking that court. Both of them need to get a second job so they can afford to give the other two kids the same things Max gets. Tough sh!t AH’s. Good on OP for standing firm. Please teach the AI bot how to correctly pronounce “Evan”.
Do Evan and Emma have no other family of their own who can kick in on things like summer camp and school uniforms? OP is quite simply not their family, and has no obligation toward them. The way Max is being pressured, manipulated, and used is just cruel on his mother's part, and her fiance's.
if the step kids need support she should talk to their bio dad, OP has no obligation to help kids unrelated to him. Sure they are his son's stepsiblings but they are nothing to op. Its up to their dad and stepmom to support them. Maybe OP should contact a lawyer and try to get full custody on the grounds OP feels that his mom and stepdad are going to make him (the child) suffer because OP refuses to support the ex's stepkids
Get full custody & make her pay child support. She's allowing her new husband to abuse her son emotionally. 😢 The stepdad isn't a real man . 😂 What grown man would beg another man to pay for his kids . His actions solidify that he's a user & will take any & everything from anybody . The mom will, unfortunately, learn the hard way .😳😱
Keep all texts, record all encounters [if legal where you're at]. Contact your lawyer. Where is Oven's [don't cha love AI] and Emma's mum? Well, honestly, to Op, Oven & Emma aren't that important to him. Max is being emotionally abused by both his stepfather and even worse, his mother. He's gonna need therapy. Laura doesn't want to go to court. Hers & Tom's arrogance wil not go over well with a judge.
So let me get this straight, the mother and stepfather of Max are psychologically, manipulating this poor kid into believing that because his step siblings that are not even part of his family are entitled to money from his father, who has no legal obligation to these other two children. The father of the two step siblings is an entitled a hole. Where is their mother? What did he do to push her so far out of their lives? This needs to go to court the father needs to take full custody of his son and get him out of this toxic environment where the mother and stepfather are psychologically abusing this kid.
No, Max wouldn't miss his mother; when his relationship with her goes nuclear, he'll cut off contact with her, and disappear on her and her new family, the moment, he gets emancipated, at 16.⚠️
Are they actually family? I'm not so sure. Tom's only a boyfriend whose girlfriend gets good child support. He's acting like a serious goldigger and the ex is allowing it.
So what they're saying is that if he doesn't give them money they're going to take it out on his son. If you think Laura won't throw her own son under the bus to please her new husband you're sadly deluded.
Life is full of inequalities. Some kids are pretty others aren't. Some are brilliant Some are talented and yes Some are born to wealthy parents. That's not for the pretty smart talented or rich to compensate those who aren't. Sorry. Sometimes life just sucks.
talk to your lawyer because I would tell lawyer Laura and TomEvan and Emma are not my responsibilities you can't get me into it you are their father whatever they need you and Laura are supposed to supply it I only have one child by Laura and that's Maxyou will cease and desist with these slurs and accusations because I will not contribute to raising your children and giving them the things that I can give my son!!I could care less about the distance relatives or the acquaintances they can dig in their pocket and help time and loyal lawyer raise times two childrenand that's exactly what I would tell each and every one of them and tell them they can fly a kite through as hell I could care less I have one child Max and that's who I intend to take care of now time and Laura can figure out what they're going to do with their children and nothing against the children but they are not my responsibility nor will I take on that responsibility!!big talking like you have more of those children are yours their family your family your children they're nothing to you those are the times children by someone else that Laura is trying to have you raised look talk to your lawyer get a cease and desist or try to go for full custody of your son!!
Okay...so: Child support in a 50/50 is a touchy subject but understandable if certain things happened. 1) theres a huge disparity of wealth/income 2) one parent isnt able to work, likely due to age of child, but evem if they are able to work, see above. Now. She is engaged and is trying to feed a family of 5. This isnt OPs or the parent paying CS's fault. A few hundred for groceries and other necessities is fine, again, see the first criteria. Any arguements about if one parent should pay CS in 50/50 is a dangerous topic as many are more focused on sticking it to the other parent. Of course, how the parents coparent and get along affects this decision.
Support 2 other children that are not biologically yours, uh that's a HUGE NO. Go for full custody of your son Max and leave the problem in your rearview mirror.
When you make up stories check storyline prior to publishing. You said Laura's step kids father isn't in the picture, so who is Tom to them? Mind bogling really
AITA for refusing to financially support my ex-wife's stepchildren?
th-cam.com/video/5N7TPdcQL5w/w-d-xo.html
Time to go to court to ask for full custody.
Exactly

Definitely
Definitely go for full custody
Amen and hallelujah to that. The ex is so wrong. A fiance's begging another man to support his kids? Insanity. 😮
Get full custody. Period. They will start abusing your son and stealing his things for his step siblings.
If they do start abusing OP's son, someone will contact social services to take him and step siblings away, place OP's son in foster care, and his step siblings with adoptive families in other states.⚠️
My first thoughts. Manipulate the child into giving up his stuff because “step siblings don’t have as much as you/they don’t get the nice stuff you do and you care about them right?”
Why does Tom feel entitled to OP's financial support for Emma and Evan? What kind of man does that? Tom needs to get a grip.
Tom is more than willing to let Laura get whatever money she can from OP
A deadbeat Dad expects that. Amazing that the ex and Tom talk about “your” family to OP. The other kids, Tom and his beggar wife are NOT OP’s family!
EVEN THE HUSBAND IS A BEGGAR ? DAMN !
He's not a husband just a boyfriend.
Life is full of inequalities. Some kids are pretty others aren't. Some are brilliant Some are talented and yes Some are born to wealthy parents. That's not for the pretty smart talented or rich to compensate those who aren't. Sorry. Sometimes life just sucks.
So if their father is not in the picture, who is she marrying?
lmao
Maybe her kitchen since one of her stepchildren is an oven
You should. Go for full custody of your son. Now!!!!!
Take Laura and Tom to court.
Definitely time to go for full custody, mom and husband are nuts and entitled
its insane to me that you pay child support at all while having 50/50 custody
It’s that weird BS where the courts believe the child should retain the same financial advantages they had when the parents were together when at the less financially able parent’s new home.
@@rayxav Damn, if only that parent used the entire half of the year they don't have their kid at home and got a job or 2nd job then the child would actually have better standards as neither parent would be filling in for the incompetent parent
It's entirely based off of the parents income. Moral of the story? If you are a man and don't want to pay child support, don't marry broke ass women.
@ that seems to be the case in so many of these stories. “You have to help my stepkids because we don’t have enough money and I have to be home for them even though they are all school aged!”
@@rayxavNot weird at all. Why should a child be punished because their parents got divorced?
Tom take care yo own damn kids
Awesome father. Max's mother is ridiculous she is using her son to pressure his father for financial help. She married a dead beat and she is desperate to appease this man.
Not necessarily a deadbeat, but he obviously has less money for his children than OP has for his son. I think Laura is the key instigator not Tom.
Go to court and take custody!
“Their father is not in the picture”? Who TF is Tom then.
To OPs ex-wifes's extended family "how much have you donated to the kids?"
What happened to Oven and Emma’s mother? That is who Tom should be asking for support.
File for full custody as you only have one child and you are ONLY responsible for his wellbeing. If you can't feed them don't breed them. Laura manipulating Max into asking you to financially support her bed-warmer's litter is abuse in it's most abject form.
WTF where is it written that you have to take financial responsibility for someone else's children? Tell her to go get a job to take care of the extra expense. If I were you I would try for sole custody of your son.
Get full custody this way your child's step siblings will stop abusing and stealing his things
lol Tom wants to sue for this hahaha. Okay Tom, you go sue.
Go for full custody. Tom wants you to support his children so he does not have to (not the father of the year on his part)
Nah, if/when Max becomes ends up producing a baby with a rebel girlfriend, at 16, drops out of high school, the step siblings will have to stay home, and do all the babysitting, and housekeeping, while he and his girlfriend spend time with OP.
Putting the child in that position is Child Abuse.
Go back to court; get full custody and get her to pay YOU child support.
Wow, what a shameless money grab from OP’s ex and her deadbeat fiancé! Is HE contributing to Max’s expenses? Jeez, the unmitigated audacity of some people! 🙄
How much of his monthly child support etc goes to the other children?
That is a violation of the court order
Yes. Get the court to demand a monthly accounting of how father's child support check is spent (plus additional funds for special needs - summer camp, school uniforms, trips, birthday parties (?)). They have certainly given him reason for concern!

Depends which spouse makes more money. Usually the man so he gets screwed with child support...
He should have full custody. Mother is toxic abuser
It's NOT a complicated dilemma. It's a line of bullshit!!!
How another man expect op to take care of his kids⁉️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽 this is the most gold digging, deadbeat Dad story I've heard, it's usually women 😂😭😅🤣

Hmmmm. Laura has 1 son. She remarried a dude, Tom, with 2 children, a boy and a girl. Laura and Tom do not have any children together. How does that make the children “step” anything?
Stepchildren are the children of a spouse. You may be thinking about half siblings.

That’s the definition of stepchildren.
If you have split parenting, no support will be ordered by the court.
If mom can't take care of him, get full custody.
Her stepchildren are not your responsibility
Full custody
Mother is the AH. As well as toxic and abusive
What do you mean by " their father isn't in the picture? Are you not married to their father"?
you have more than enough to go for full custody. if your kids mental health is being affected because of this, thats more than sufficient to get full custody. judges dont play around with a child's mental health.

Collect evidence, do not have any contact with your ex or her husband UNLESS you are wired for sound and preferably with video
If the mom is worried about the environment of the children in her home, then she shouldn't have custody. Use her own words against her to get full custody.
I can’t believe he still makes his son endure 2 weeks a month with these people!!!! I wouldn’t for 1 day 🤬

I'd be going to court and you don't owe HER step children. Your only responsible for YOUR SON. ANY court would tell her that.

The guy is selfish, if he wasn't getting would apply for full custody, but he enjoys his life as part time father paying child support
Evan and Emma are not important to OP, THEY ARE NOT HIS KIDS!!!
I would ask why Tom can't and won't provide for his own kids and wants a 3td party non family to pay for his kid.
He would never get full custody, and even if he did, his son would miss his mother.

Okay...so:
Child support in a 50/50 is a touchy subject but understandable if certain things happened.
1) theres a huge disparity of wealth/income
2) one parent isnt able to work, likely due to age of child, but evem if they are able to work, see above.
Now. She is engaged and is trying to feed a family of 5. This isnt OPs or the parent paying CS's fault. A few hundred for groceries and other necessities is fine, again, see the first criteria.
