He sent me two hundred dollars — and misspelled my name on the check! Two hundred dollars! It was almost insulting. </p><p>Wait. No. It <i>is</i> insulting. </p><p>Adrian's day care costs two hundred and fifty dollars a week. Adrian is ten months old, divide two hundred dollars by ten months and that's twenty bucks a month! That's ridiculous.</p><p>Then, he called me and asked me to drop the family court action. He said that he sent me two hundred dollars and that I should be &quot;grateful.&quot; Grateful- he actually used that word! I almost want send it back to him.</p><p>I feel like an idiot. Thinking he was actually coming around. Even now I'm trying to console myself with thoughts like &quot;Well, he half meant it&quot; and &quot;He did offer up a sincere apology.&quot;</p><p>But it was all a load of BS, an attempt to manipulate me into doing things &quot;his way.&quot;</p><p>I told him that I would not drop the family court action, but that I'd be sure to tell the judge that he sent two hundred dollars.</p><p>Well, at least now I have an answer to my question: Leopards don't change their spots. <i>Ever.</i></p> http://firstwivesworld.com/moving_beyond_divorce/blog_entry/leopard_and_his_spots#comments kids and family mind and spirit money and law moving beyond divorce wiveswire Mon, 15 Oct 2007 10:15:00 -0400 Faith Eggers 3538 at http://firstwivesworld.com
