My wife's ex husband is somewhere around 30k in arrears on child support. She got surprised today with a $675 check which we assume is his tax refund that got diverted to her. The question is this........ Should i call him and thank him for the new tires he's putting on my truck??
so we got a pleasant surprise today

Right LOL
Actually that is f'ed on your part. That money is for his kid/kids. I don't care if u have spent money on said child. That's the job u signed up for when u married his ex.
Maybe I'm crazy, but I'd spend the money on my stepchild for whom it was intended.

The money is for child support, not tire support.
Actually, they are not my stepkids. They are my kids since I adopted them and he signed away his rights. They are very well taken care of. Believe me, they get alot of money spent on them LOL. All the money that comes into our household goes into the same place regardless of where it comes from. The truck is getting tires either way, just thought it was funny that we got the check out of the blue. And Im pretty sure he's not coming to Illinois form Texas to slash my tires since he has nothing to do with the kids to begin with and if he was caught here he would go directly to jail
Exactly who's money do you think has been supporting the kids up to this point you dolt? Some return on the money he's already invested, especially on something likes tires, is negligible. If he's already spent money on the kids that should have been elsewhere, this is just replacing what he's already lost to the deadbeat dad and more power to him for using it on something that tangible that isn't a complete waste like lottery tickets and alcohol. For all we know, he uses the truck to transport the children and tires are an important part of vehicle safety.
While I totally see where you're coming from since they're your kids now, I wouldn't advertise that to his deadbeat ass. I could see him getting one of those lawyers you see on tv to sue you for "misappropriation of funds". He'd lose, but it would still cause you stress.
So many overreactions in one thread.
For real.
Guys, the deadbeat sperm donor is, let me make this extremely clear, $30,000 behind! I'm sure the kids are doing fine, so what's new tires with that money on OP's truck gonna hurt?
Now imagine how far behind he would be if his child support order was for more than $35/wk..... for 2 kids lol

if he signed away his rights, then why is he paying child support and why do you even need his money?
signing away your rights should relieve you of the financial obligation of the kid, does it not???
He would still owe from before the adoption took place.
