Hi thank you for your reply

It’s a just a right pain isn’t it the having to explain yourself. It’s horrible thinking about sanctions and through no fault of your own. Workplaces all go thro struggles and hours get cut in a fair few places

But as you say finding school hours work is tough and it means like working probably 5 days a week during those hours and well may as well not have any spare time hey

[Gingey28]

Hi hope your well

Welcome to gingerbread. I would say all you need to do is be there for them. Don’t worry that your a Father raising a girl, our job is to be there for our children whenever they need us and that’s all we can do.

Here to chat if you need to take care and sending a virtual hug it must be so tough what’s happened

Hi in glad you feel better it is a good site helped me a lot.

Just watching England not convinced haha as usual lol poor. My evening was good thanks how was yours

Did you enjoy the better weather today. I work Mon Tues and wed so Thurs to Sunday I’m off so I mostly sat in the back today while my son was at school

[Gingey28]

Hi hope your ok. How you finding it on here. There are lots of people who I’m sure can relate.

 

How is your evening going? Do you like the football? I’m just watching the euros. My son is allowed to stay up till 10 haha he is 6 may seem late but he isn’t in bed till 9.30 anyway so it makes no odds lol. He sleeps till 7.30 on school day and then after 8 on weekend so all is good

How many children do you have?

[Gingey28]

Like Busman403 says do it on your terms

[Gingey28]

Hey it’s absolutely your choice. Don’t worry about others

It’s my birthday this Sunday and guess what I’m going to Blackpool for the day with my mum and son. I decided a day at the pleasure beach beats any meal or drinks. I’m not into parties or the usual. I think some people hold them as popularity contests and it’s the same every year

Do what’s gonna be good for you and your child. But don’t ignore it it’s your day and a day out with your child could be just what you need

Here to chat anytime and hope it goes well for you

[Gingey28]

Hey hope all is good. Your not the only one to feel this way I hope people sharing their experiences helps knowing that they can relate and u can relate to them

Its tough on your own. I have a little boy he is 5 he has become very hard to deal with this past year the tantrums get out of hand he hits and throws things but he does it with real purpose and intent. So everytime he doesn’t get own way he does same I’m trying to teach right and wrong and teach him that certain behaviours are not nice but he doesn’t seem to stop

So I’ve found it tough and lost my grandad last year it’s been hard for him and me and family very strained and upsetting.

I hope you are ok. How’s your year been so far hehe I know it’s only 5 days in but kids being off school feels a lifetime. My son was due back today but he had ear infection so he will go tomorrow for day and I need a rest as not feeling well myself

Hi of course it is you have to put your needs as important as the children. You all count. I regularly buy new things for myself but usually same time I will have bought something for my son or took him out or tea out so yeah it’s down to

[Gingey28]

What happened with regards to your ex. Was he made to pay up? I just don’t understand why people do this

[Gingey28]

Hi thanks for your reply

I haven’t made a decision and got a letter off child maintenance today saying he has missed a payment. Just recently been payed by them so not sure what this is but I wonder if he has started messing about. If he doesn’t pay they need to take action but when u speak to them on phone they say Nothing they can do if someone isn’t declaring earnings. Not very helpful to the receiving parent

 

There needs to be more done with regards self employed people getting away with it. I don’t believe him but he offers me £100 a month so what are child maintenance actually doing 🤔 gets on my nerves something I have to always think about whether I’ll get anything

I’m not so stupid to believe him but the service needs to back people up more. Seems they are too lenient

[Gingey28]

Hi yes sure

[Gingey28]

I agree with you all the amount we get is not a great deal especially today’s costs

I just need to speak to him see what greement he wants to offer but trust someone who doesn’t want to know his son. Not sure what’s best don’t want to ditch child maintenance on his word maybe need to ring them discuss this

Thanks everyone

[Gingey28]

Hi Steve

That was my thought just didn’t know if child maintenance would set up case again if stop using them

[Gingey28]
