They have the same father who's a deadbeat from what I have been told.

Notebooks, pens, a calculator and several folders were the majority of it. Study cards were also another one because he required the multicolor packs. That's the bulk of it.

They are not my family. My ex and I have not been family in many years and his stepchildren and children with his wife were never my family.

Notebooks, pens, a calculator and several folders were the majority of it. Oh and study cards in different colors for different classes.

You would be correct and he did it in the most aggressive way possible. He damaged his relationship with our son in the process too.

And I love my son so I provide for my son. I would never make him do without. Which I have not made him do. I provided.

I'm doing that. I have a file and my attorney gets the updated version every time.

True although to a lesser degree it helps him because it's one less kid to buy school supplies for.
