We're long-distance non-custodial and only see her a few times a year. But she goes home and brags to her mom that we have better "stuff" at our house. We have bigger TVs, more video game consoles, we live near the beach, etc. I understand that hearing that probably makes her mom feel bad...but I don't understand her method of defense. She chooses to go the PAS route. She tells SD that my husband is a bad father because he should be contributing all that money to her to "share our lifestyle" with SD...but instead, we choose to buy material things for ourselves. That really angers me. I think my SD does the same thing. We’re long-distance non-custodial and only see her a few times a year.
