Nothing brings out jealousy more than finding out someone has money.

Or at least access to money.

When you have an ex, this can get pretty messy – especially when it comes to finances.

At least it did in this story.

Check out why this dad seems to feel a bit bad.

AITAH for not giving my Ex-Wife half of my Daughter’s Birthday Money

My family has always been good about sending gifts and money for birthdays and Christmas.

This year was a great year for my daughter as she got over $1,400 for her birthday.

I put it in a joint savings account I had set up for her.

But all was not merry.

I’ve been depositing her gift money in her account for over 3 years, which happens to coincide with the time of my divorce.

My daughter told my ex-wife about her savings account over the weekend.

She was so proud of having money.

My ex-wife on the other hand took the news as me stealing money from her.

She is demanding that I give her half of the money in my daughter’s savings account.

Her logic is that since we “share” custody of my daughter, she deserves half of my daughter’s gift money.

And a truce is not on the horizon.

I asked EW what about the money her side gives my daughter.

She told me it is none of my business how much money her family gives her.

Go figure.

In the account my kid has over $8,000.

All of the money she received from her birthdays, Christmases, and other special occasions.

The EW wants half of that, and I doubt she will put it in a savings account for my kid.

Here is what folks are saying.

That should shut her mouth.

I bet. That poor girl.

Sounds like the safest option. For now.

I bet she spends it on stupid things, too. Like lottery tickets and booze.

Well said. I can see why they divorced.

This kid is going to have to grow up fast.

It’s too bad her mom doesn’t have her best interests at heart.
