Before my dc and I moved out at the end of Feb., stbx said he "didn't have the money" 
to give me cs for March, but that he would give me "some" on April 1.
On April 15, when I still hadn't seen a penny, I emailed him, stating the above. He wrote back, saying firstly that he hadn't given me any money because "We don't have an agreement,"
and secondly, that he had said he might be able to give me something on April 1.
He went on to say that he would deposit $300 into my back account, and that maybe he could give me $300 more May 1, but that after that he wouldn't be giving anything until his house refi money comes through!
I was very upset, of course. I refrained from emailing him back, though!
I just wanted to yell at him "We DO have an agreement-- it's called a MARRIAGE CONTRACT, and you promised to support and care for any children we had!" And also, "WELL WHY DON'T YOU JUST TELL THE KIDS NOT TO GET HUNGRY OR NEED SHELTER OR CLOTHES THAT FIT UNTIL YOU FEEL MORE GENEROUS!"
Seriously, he has enough money for anything he wants, but not for cs. Case in point:
Stbx decided, unilaterally, to paint older ds' bedroom, move himself in there, and put ds and his little brother together in the other bedroom. So, he has money for paint, and also, apparently, for a bed for little ds. He's 5, and has always coslept-- until this coming weekend!
They've only slept at his place 4 times, and already he's doing this!
