Kid came back with new clothes I didn't buy

My daughter came back from her mom's place with $200 worth of new outfits. I asked where they came from and she said mom bought them. We don't have that arrangement in place and money is tight for me right now. Haven't said anything to my ex because I don't want to start drama but this doesn't feel right. How do you guys handle stuff like this without it turning into a whole thing?

Yeah, that's frustrating when finances aren't aligned like that. Have a calm conversation about what you both agreed to before things escalate into a bigger issue.

I do all the laundry in our house and I'd probably lose it too if my ex was just buying stuff without checking with me first. Money for clothes should be a conversation between you two.

Grandpa energy says I'd let it slide and just enjoy watching her light up, but I get it - you need to be on the same page financially even when co-parenting.
