Oh, and yes, when it comes to our kids, we DO go to all that trouble. Its what parents who put their kids first do, actually. Its called 'love' not 'revenge'0

I'm going through exactly the same process myself....no revenge intended, it took 10 minutes to complete the REMO papers, another couple of hours to appear in court to swear to my documentation to be true and accurate. Job done. I think you will find that neither anxiousmum or myself express anywhere near the amount of 'revengeful comments' that you have made. about your ex, you are constantly harping on about her, I'm bored of hearing about her.
I too have a child about to embark on a very expensive few years of training to gain specific qualifications. Her dad may not want to support her, but I'll do ALL WITHIN MY power to ensure that I support her, and that he does to, if at all within my power to ensure he does! Its not revenge, its about my kid, our kid!
Why do you feel that our ex's should be allowed not to pay their share. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with revenge. Where are you coming from?
Do you think all situations are exactly the same as yours?
So, your kid wants to be a doctor, what will you do? What will you say? Sorry son, all I can give you is a fiver a week, that might just buy him/her a ride on the tube to UNI, return.
wind your neck in. where did i refer to anxious mum in that?
try reading through non blinkered eyes and you would see i was making a general post rather than a person specific one.
jeez, no wonder some of the dungaree brigade have so many problems.NEVER ARGUE WITH AN IDIOT. THEY'LL DRAG YOU DOWN TO THEIR LEVEL AND BEAT YOU WITH EXPERIENCE.
and, please. only thank when appropriate. not to boost idiots egos.0 -
and just for the record, only one of my daughters parents is putting money aside for her future.

Speedster, you only seem capable of responding with negativity and insult, attempting to shoot people down, especially PWC's - I would think that you are the one with "so many problems"
You clearly referrd to anxiousmum. I take offense to your continual bitter comments, both in this thread and hundreds of others, and as such will not bother to comment to any future spiteful, angry and bitter posts which you indulge yourself in.
Be respectful of those of us PWC's on this forum who deserve respect, as in Anxiousmum and my cases, and all of the other lovely PWC's on here struggling to make ends meet, for raising children on our own with no financial help from their fathers. And for going the extra mile and NOT letting the fathers get away with it, at least not easily. I say good on us!0 -
Thank you Playinghardball - I know that you too are using the REMO process - and personally, I'm very thankful for that process and that I don't have to deal through CSA!
Speedster, your comments were, or very much apear to, be directed at my post. If they are not......you can feel free to apologise at any time to ALL of the PWC's on this forum who have felt at some time your comments are directed at them, when, maybe that was not your intention. But you don't have to turn every post you make into a PWC slanging match.
With regards to revenge, and fueling the fire Speedster.......my ex has had a great relationship, lots of visits with the kids etc. over the years, and has always supported them financially, albeit through court orders. However, when his new child came along, and I informed him that we should book airfares early that year due to me being given redundancy notice and was at risk of losing my job - that's when he decided to stop paying. Hmmm, was that a 'oh I can stick it to you' revenge move? ANYBODY can be a vengeful person, you don't have to be a NRP or a PWC to just be downright nasty.0 -

as i have stated, my post was in no way aimed at you. sure there is an element of revenge in all of us on here, nrp and pwc alike. sometimes there's nothing more satisfying than seeing your ex getting what's coming to them and justice being dished out. this is what the "element of revenge" refers too.
but fighting for what's best for our children is why we are all here in the first place. if that means the ex getting what's coming to them, then so be it.
as for the other comments, i would refer back to the twisted out of shape attitude of certain posters.NEVER ARGUE WITH AN IDIOT. THEY'LL DRAG YOU DOWN TO THEIR LEVEL AND BEAT YOU WITH EXPERIENCE.

i would also like to take the opportunity to remind certain posters of the ignore function.
i use it, rather than constantly b1tching.NEVER ARGUE WITH AN IDIOT. THEY'LL DRAG YOU DOWN TO THEIR LEVEL AND BEAT YOU WITH EXPERIENCE.

As is happening more often recently, this thread has been thrown off track.
I thought it was quite an interesting post by OP to find out how the regular posters were getting along with their cases, both NRP & PWC.
It just starts to get a bit tedious when it's the same names constantly bickering with each other & sometimes hi-jacking threads.
We all know there's issues for both NRP & PWC so why don't we make a late new years/early spring resolution to try & keep to the thread topic whenever possible?

I think this would be a great idea
Regardless of whether you are an NRP or a PWC the most important thing to all of you is your kids so please can we bear that in mind and count to ten before letting your fingers hit the keyboard :cool:
