    You don't mention nursery fees.
    If it was their joint wage, why did they not claim HB.

    For what it's worth I wish your son to be granted visitation rights. It is not right that he shouldn't be able to see his child.

    Can I also add that the Court's usually veer towards alternate weekends, shared Christmas/birthdays and one/two weeks in the summer, all is not lost.

    any money given would require proof, not getting shafted over this too.

    Absolutely, which is why I only gave the last option as an 'if all else fails' option.

    Hope the CSA goes smoothly.

    how can my son give money, all communication has been ended by the ex, there is no contact. He has a few quid to give his son but what can he do?


    He could post it (postal order etc.). I assume he knows his ex.'s address.
