My niece (14) recently disowned her mom, who was simply using her for child care for her 4 (or 5? Who knows, I lost count, but they keep popping out) youngest kids (6 and under), so she could play WOW all day. The funniest thing is when maintenance enforcement went after the mom for child support, so now not only does she lose her free babysitter and her child support from her ex, but now she needs to pay that same child support to my sibling.
Amazing how her tune changes about paying for things that are not part of the regular monthly payments, like for recreation etc. Before they were essential and now it is her opinion that her ex is 'just milking the system vindictively'.
