    Font - I (41m) have a 13 year-old daughter "Mandy" with my ex-wife "Jane" (37f). I would say post-divorce we had a decent relationship and were cordial for our daughter's sake but everything changed they day Jane started dating her current husband "Tom" (47m).

Because of my job at the time she had primary custody but I was supposed to get every other weekend and summers while we alternated Holidays. I had to take my ex to court twice and was just grateful that former-MIL was on my side and wouldn't allow Jane to feed Mandy lies about me. I tried to be patient and forgiving in

    Organism - the beginning but eventually Jane pushed me too far and now I just handle her with cold aloofness and documenting as much as I can when interacting with her. During the pandemic Tom and Jane lost their respective jobs and were in danger of loosing the house. Jane took me to court for

After the decree I started getting suspicious because Jane and I have equal access to Mandy's college fund so I decided to add-in special protections and alerts. I'm the primary on the account and Jane was just an Authorized-Signer.

    Organism - Unfortunately my suspicions were confirmed and I received a call from the bank about an attempt to take out $10,000. It was Jane, and I was pissed. So pissed that I went to Jane's place and yelled and cursed at her. I knew Mandy was out at the time so I thought I was in the clear but didn't realize when she and my former-MIL pulled up to the driveway. Mandy didn't hear everything but she

    Font - Jane is now asking me to help her put up a "united front" but after what she did I'm not looking into doing her any favors. However, my MIL thinks that by allowing Mandy to play us against each other it will end up hurting her. AITA?

    Font - BabY_pot4to · 7 hr. ago NTA, but go get your daughter out of there, she is old enough now that court will considered her request with whom she wants to live and you have proof of the shady things your ex tried to do with your daughters money. And if you tell the truth I bet your daughter isn't seeing much of HER child support. You pay that money to be used for your daughter not the live of to adults that steal from their child. 3.2k Reply Share Report Save Follow

    Font - H_E_Pennypacker 17 min. ago YTA, you're sabotaging your ex's parenting by doing this and that is not good for your daughter. Your ex sounds like a bad parent and you should take them back to court about the college fund withdrawal attempt and try to get more time with the kid. Vote Reply Share Report Save Follow
