Before we got custody of my step son i helped cover his expenses , bought clothes on top also .You should contribute to them as a step parent.
I think all those amounts quoted should be halved.

oh i just read your post again, just to say, if you had a job, your hubby wasn't working, (no fault of his own), you got £180 a week had to pay £65 csa, £75 rent £25 council tax, how would you manage,

jacklink

as a step parent that has no contact, the mother has poisoned kids against you, the mother has caused £800 worth of damage to your property , got away with it, would you pay £65 a week out of £180 wages ?

jacklink

sorry question still stands,

£180 a week wages
£65 csa
£75 rent
£25 council tax
how does one live ?

Yes all bills should be halved ,i don t care about sky but still pay half the bill.
If you half all those bills he would still have over £90 to himself (more than i get).

the family also paid extra expenses as you say, there is over £1000 worth of teenage gifts in cupboard, xmas presents refused ect
