I would say that it either stays like it is, which is protecting both of you, or you have to get a lawyer involved. In the long run it won't hurt you, or force a D. Eventually he will see that you were doing what had to be done to protect the kids, and he'll appreciate that you stood up for yourself. If he doesn't, that just means it was a very good idea! There is a good reason you are uncomfortable. If he is MLC (and the word motorcycle makes me wonder) the meaning of money may get very confusing for him!
