Hi there. i separated

Hi there. i separated form my ex wife nearly 4 years ago now, we had 3 beautiful kids. In that time she has done everything she can to take time off me with them and has cost me around $20,000 in legal costs for me to be able to spend more time with them. i am a shift worker, that makes things a little harder but now that a final court order is in place that now allowes me to spend 2 or 3 nights with the kids, depending weather my first day off falls on a weekend or not. I pay $1,17.00 a month in child support via payroll deduction. Now my ex has thrown one of her tantrums because the court has allowed me this time with the kids and trying to get me into trouble by refusing to send the kids to me with their school uniforms, she says its my responsibility to supply them on top of the child support i pay. i cant afford this and it is compulsory for the kids to wear uniform. i have asked her to write me a letter saying that she wants me to buy their uniforms so that i can have it taken out of my child support and she refuses, i have spoken to the CSA and i still cant get any help. can some one please give me some suggestions.
