Children maintenance- do you tell?

[Ker]

Hi

 

I am in the process of divorce… My X has stopped paying any kind of maintenance claiming that as long as we haven’t signed anything, he is not paying for anything.

Obviously I am super stressed as I work part time and mostly look after the chulchil.

I have been debating with myself and would be happy to use your advice- should I explain to the children why we cannot buy / do things we used to do or just say that I don’t have money at the moment?

I am really struggling to deal with this from all perspectives… Advice will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hello, if your ex is refusing to pay maintenance or the correct amount of maintenance, then straight to CMS, pay the £20 fee and opens case with them. They will then pursue this matter on your behalf

Thank you.

I have done that already and it is in a process…

Just need to deal with the children asking for things that I cannot buy anymore.. 🙁

not sure how to deal with them best. 🙁
