(My husband) won’t go back to court to make (his ex) responsible because of the cost and the fact that he doesn’t want the boys to see him take their mother to court.
Published: Oct. 26, 2024, 4:00 a.m.DEAR ABBY: I have been married to “Ellis,” a wonderful man, for a year and a half. This is a second marriage for each of us. My older children are on their own. Ellis has three boys who live with us. The oldest is autistic. My husband and his ex-wife, “Mia,” share joint custody, but our home is the primary home.
Ellis refuses to talk to Mia about this because it ends up in an argument and he says he can’t make her do anything. He also won’t go back to court to make her responsible because of the cost and the fact that he doesn’t want the boys to see him take their mother to court. DEAR STEPMOM: Does your husband know how strongly you feel about this? You two are overdue for a frank conversation. As much as your husband doesn’t want to spend the money, the answer to this problem may lie in a lawyer’s office. The fact that Mia doesn’t adhere to the custody agreement may change the amount of money he may be required to pay her, or vice versa.
