Dental Bill Debacle

In the divorce decree it states that BOTH are to provide medical and dental, split any unreimbursed fees / co-pays. In CA that is quite common. About 3 years ago BM lost her job. She contacted my DH and asked if it was ok if she used our medical and dental until she found another job. COBRA was outrageously expensive so it was totally understandable. Being a nice person my DH said no problem and provided her with the cards. She became employed about a month after that. Fast forward to a year ago when one of my SS needed a physical for sports.

50/50 timeshare in college ???

We currently have 50/50 timeshare with the loser BM, week on week off. What would be a reasonable expectation about living arrangements after the kid graduates? We were talking the other day about college and my 17 year old step son made some reference about still doing the week on week off thing after he is attending college. I was kind of taken aback. To be honest I thought it was hysterical. I have a mental picture of him showing up on our doorstep on a Friday night with his little backpack on. :?

Who am I REALLY doing the favor for?

A little background. DH and I have been married 6 years. We both have 2 children from previous marriages. We have my kids full time, they see their father only a few times a year. He is a total loser, never paid CS in his life, but he stays away and because he is not so great of a person (to say the least) I leave it alone. My DH on the other hand has a BM from hell. She bailed on him and her kids when they were still in diapers and decided she didn’t want to be a wife or a mother. THAT IS, until I came into the picture. Long story short, they now have 50/50 custody.
