    I'm assuming that you must be in a playful mood and having a laugh dmg as surely no one would be as patronising as that if they were being serious?!;)

    I had a clean "financial" break from my first husband 18 years ago when my DD was about 4.

    It was hard, but at least he couldn't call the shots with money;)

    I'm saying a clean financial break can be the best thing.

    If his £20 means he can have you sitting there feeling like you are is it worth it?

    Don't let him blackmail you, those are his problems, not yours.
