And that's a good thing because I am the receiving parent. My lawyer convinced me to waive support in order to make the judge more likely to grant me primary custody and it worked. Now, however, I want child support. She'd have done the same thing to me, and I shouldn't be on the hook for 100% of the kids' expenses while she gets free weekends with them. They're older now and cost more.

I filed for child support modification back in February and, through my extreme susceptibility murphy's law, everything went wrong. Administrative issues and timing issues and general confusion made the case die. At one point, I even suspect the lady working my case threw it out purely out of spite, but I can't prove that. My ex is a manipulative bitch who has told them a lot of lies, so it wouldn't surprise me.

I finally got through to someone today about the case and got them to reopen it and push it through to the next step, so wish me luck.
