Push over
My fiance pays child support to the court has his son everyday from 4 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon buys him clothes and toys all the time and gives the childs mom money to take the kid to the movies, Chuck E Cheese Etc. We argue about it and he compares his son to my son which my son's father is not even in his life. Does anyone else think what he is doing is not fair or am I the only one, his BM has a new boyfriend and doesn't have time for their son right now

RUN!!!!!!
save yourself!!
It's good that your fiance is
It's good that your fiance is paying child support but he seems to have him a good portion of the time. Also, I'd have a problem with him giving her money to take the child to the movies? Why is he doing this? There has to be some boundary. If not next time he'll be giving her money for rent, car note and whatever else.
I agree
Yes he has him everyday and every other weekend and he has to sleep over during the week at least once, those are his BM rules, I do have a huge problem with him giving her money to take the child to the movies, he does it because the child never wants to be with the mother so he feels bad, as his BM complains she doesn't have money to take child anywhere, I try to have him put boundaries and he changes the subject on me as he is making good money right now and he doesn't tell me he's doing this I found out on my own I feel he thinks it's his money he can do what he wants
Just as an FYI Curious
Just as an FYI Curious Georgetta is not a SM so take her advice on being in a relationship like this with a grain of salt as she has no real life experience in the matter.
thank you
thanks : )
Dont be so quick to dismiss
Dont be so quick to dismiss her advice all the time. Some posters here will tell you to RUN, some will tell you to put your foot down and establish boundries. Some are even going to say that you need to tell your BF how to spend the money he earned on his child.
I do not always agree with all, Curious as well, but this bit is spot on. You discovered he was not truthful and that you both have difference ways and that it is your choice as to whether you can live like this or not.
Here's the thing - you're
Here's the thing - you're already resentful of the money (and maybe the time) going to this child and his BM. You're likely going to become more and more resentful as it continues and the child's expenses increase. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I would think that if your fiance's paternity was legally established and he had court ordered child support and court ordered visitation time, then you would feel better about the situation, and perhaps less resentful. And if he had court ordered parenting time, his worry that the BM would withhold the child would be less and he might not feel as inclined to cater to her whims. So maybe, as makingthebest suggested above, your best bet is to insist for the health of your relationship that he pursue this legally (not SAY he's going to do it, but actually DO it). And if he doesn't, you have a pretty good idea of where your relationship stands.
You have the child everyday
It would be supper easy to do an DNA test. To find out if it’s his kid or not. As long as your BF pays his portion of household expenses. 1/2 of everything. What ever other money is his to do what he wants. It’s looks like you have 50/50 on child’s time. BM should really not be getting CS.
Yes he is at our home every day except every other weekend
I
That’s right
I completely agree with you thank you
It’s looks like you have 50

Not necessarily. In my state plenty of parents who have 50/50 physical placement pay CS. Instead of being a percentage of the NC parent's gross income, it's roughly a percentage of the difference between the income of the two parents, paid by the parent with the higher income.
There should never be CS with
There should never be CS with true 50/50. The parent with better insurance should provide it and the other parent should split medical and absolute necessary costs in half. If the lower income parent can't make it, he/she needs to give up more custody time to work to compensate the costs for the child he/she helped create
BM rules
My main issue is that BM sets all the rules when it comes to SS & he does whatever she says
It will never change. Trust
It will never change. Trust me on this. You need to decide if you can put up with this forever.
I don’t know
If I can it’s already causing strife
