But how do you prove that she didn't earn that spa day with her own income??? It isn't fair that whoever gets the child (husband or wife) is now responsible for justifying every single expense. That is a lot of control to be given to an ex and could lead to a whole bunch of potential haggling and place further stress on the kid. Simply because a few people abuse the system shouldn't burden everyone else. That CSP is something that has been either court ordered (example of an independent arbitor) or agreed upon between the ex-husband and ex-wife and should be lived up to.
Divorce lawyers and mediators are certainly not free. Who is to be responsible for the expense of bringing in the lawyer to spend countless hours sifting through every single expense? That would cost several thousand dollars.
