Oh, I forgot to mention something. In the eight years I had legal custody of my son, and despite court orders that she pay child support to me, I received the princely sum of $350 for the entire period. This outrage occured while she lived in federally subsidized housing for single parents (no children in residence) but employed nonetheless. It still sends shivers down my spine. I'm just clanking my chains because I am so happy with our government.

The benefits to your son, however, were precious beyond the ability of $$ to measure.
You did the right thing, the money game in divorce is a con anyway, just forget about it.

I have always said "A hit man is cheaper than a lawyer". I knew a guy in Greensboro who was pretty rough. When his wife left him and threatened to "take him for all he was worth", she got a visit in the grocery store from a man who asked about her and her kids by name and wished nothing bad happened to her kids. After the 3rd time with a 3rd person, she settled.
No I don't think people should kill their ex-wives. But if you want to play a rough game, expect difficulties.
