Do any of you know the definition of "extraordinary medical expenses"? We pay half of all SD's medical bills, but I was looking over the support order and I don't quite understand it.

"Unless specifically ordered otherwise, the person receiving support is responsible for ordinary health care expenses of the children. However, both parents have an obligation to pay their share of extraordinary health care expenses. Extraordinary health care expenses mean those monthly medical expenses that exceed 5% of the basic support obligation from the Child Support Schedule Worksheet, Line 5."

My dh and I pretty much work together as a great team with SD11. We usually tackle issues with her together. We have definate boundries. He is the punisher and the ultimatly what he says goes, but he includes me in a way that she knows that I am included because I am also "raising her" and that I love her and want what is best for her.

I am having an issue with my SD's bm. Every year my SD (11) is involved in a dance class after school. SD lives about an hour away from us, so bm is the one who enrolls her in it. Every year at the end of the school year the studio puts on a big dance production for all of the friends and family.
