What's my best course of action?

Forest of all he can't make you get Internet! If he wants to talk to his son then fine he can supply Internet and computer to do so. If he doesn't want to do that them tell him he can phone asks talk that way until at such time you are ready to get internet.

The pictures and videos - you take what you normally would . In a before school shot what ever else you have then tell him this is what I have I'll send it to you. No you do not streams around all day to please him if he gets angry inform him you will not accept his abuse and get a AVO.

I agree you should play nice but don't be a door mat love.

Child support is a never ending battle - honestly make your family Budget not include child support and when you get it think of it as a bonus.

School stuff if he doesn't put in the finances then he doesn't get invites to school things or copies of report cards school photos news letters etc - when he kicks up a stink then tell him when he wants to be a father and provide financial assistance to school then he will be privy to that information

I took pics of him in his uniform, ones of him with his sister (which I didn't send to ex as he refuses to have anything to do with her), I sent him a pic of DS while he was in class in the morning and a picture of of his painting that he showed me the same day when he was picked up. He's hassling me about internet so I've told him he'll just have to deal with calls for now (I need internet anyways but I dont like how he's pushing so hard for something out of my control).

My family budget has always been made off of my DF and my own money, NEVER anything else, we never include my PPP or any tax I get back as their all considered extra.. However we had agreed on the schooling and stuff and it needed to be paid, school stuff bought and uniforms purchased, for two kids with no financial support from their bio dad at all I had to put off a few of my normal bills in order to cover them, that's whats dragging me back atm..

School stuff is hard, he's already listed and signed up for newletters, open days etc (though he lives 3 hour drive away) so I doubt he would actually attend.
