BM's "calculations"

Follow up to yesterday’s blog:

BM met DH at the door and said she had been doing some “calculations” She says since we only have SS6 “six days a month” that the extra weekend she’s asking us to take would end up being $15 in child support.

Yes, she seriously says we only have SS six days a month. She deliberately forgets EVERY WEEKDAY EVENING. We have SS from 4-8:30 EVERY SINGLE WEEKDAY. By our state law we get a quarter day credit for any day we have him more than 3 hours. So, as non-custodial we would have him for 13 days a month under this new schedule.

If we decided to go for custody and got credit for sleeping and school time, then BM’s current schedule as non-custodial would calculate to 3 days a month. Seriously. 3. By the new schedule she only takes him one weekend, and she sees him less than 3 hours every day.

She honestly and truly believes that we hardly ever see SS and that parenting is a burden that she entirely bears alone. When the reality is that I see her son far more than she does.
