Ex who I have * children with has spent over *,* dollars in bitcoin and withdrew it into his new girlfriend’s account. He hasn’t even met her yet. He has been refusing to buy me basic essentials like tampons and medicine. Kids lunch accounts are empty and so is the fridge. He canceled all out cards and created new one so I had no say where the money went.
Hey ****, it sounds like you're dealing with a serious financial and custody-related issue. Here are some general steps you might consider:
- Child Support: File for child support if not already in place. It can help cover children's expenses.
- Emergency Financial Orders: You may request temporary financial orders from the court to ensure essential needs are met.
- Legal Custody: Review your custody arrangement. You might need to modify it to better suit your and your children’s needs.
