Ex wife is about to be homeless, I'm trying to weigh my options. She walked out on my family because I wouldn't buy her a copy of Windows.

My ex wife left my life 4 years ago. I have a 7 year old daughter from this marriage. She walked out on us because I wouldn’t buy her a computer and Windows. This was in the middle of the pandemic so she was working from home with her laptop and wanted a desktop to work from home. I wasn’t getting any financial help at all, didn’t have any money and was barely able to afford a Christmas for my daughter.<br><br>She left without warning, I managed to get a used desktop for her but she said she wanted a brand new one and I couldn’t afford it. She moved in with her mom and disappeared from her daughters life. This has been ongoing for 4 years, she has only seen my daughter a handful of times and I have to drag her to court every year to pay child support. She owes me thousands in back child support and she still doesn’t pay it.<br><br>She’s currently reaching out to me now because she’s about to be evicted from her home and might end up homeless. She has no money left and is telling me she’s not able to pay rent and is asking me to help her. My gut feeling is telling me to not help her because she’s been absent and horrible to me and our daughter for years, but at the same time I don’t want to feel responsible if something terrible happens to her.<br><br>What do I do in this situation?
