Okay I read through all your replies. I'm not sure I'll get it straightened out
for you. But I'm going to give some a try. But not the way you have written.
IN words that I'm hoping will make sense to you. So if they don't just say so.

I'll try one thing till we get straight then a new.

First for paying rent or utilities. Anything, your childs percentage.

What it means is this. Say there are 3 people in your family that
you split the amount you pay for. So your rent or mortgage payment
say is 300 dollars a month. You are allowed to declare that each
person pays a equal $100 dollars.

1. So your son can pay the $100 dollars to the person that paid the bills
while you had no money, for each month they paid. He can't pay anyoe
elses rent. (In ths way, I'll give you another way in a minute)


Say you take your son to a doctor 4 times a month in a town that is a round
trip of 100 miles away. You can take the 100 X 4 = 400 X .045 (whatever
the mileage amount is) and then when you get this amount. If you would
like to pay somemore of your rent, you can use this money. Because it
technically is now your money to do with what you want.

a. You would just record it as, amount that I spent driving in say
June to speech therapy. Example.

I personally would figure out a whole month's travel, but you should do say
only medical, and therapies. Any thing that a parent wouldn't normally
have. No well visits either.

This will help lower what you owe the other person. But you wont be using
the backpay the wrong way. BEcause its now your money to do with what you want.


Next you are allowed to divide all utilities the same way. people in family
X amount = your amount to be reimbursed.

b. Once again after recording that you have been repaid this. You can
repay any bills you need to.
