It is all signed, by us and him, he has a copy hanging on his bedroom bulletin board and we have a copy with our legal papers.

Sometimes they just need to see everything in black and white for it to make sense to them, otherwise they think we are just nagging. I hope you can make them understand.

Thanks Janet, but in our family if I tried to do something like that they would all roll their eyes, even hubby. I'm glad it works for you. Here, we just have to keep chipping at it.
