Lwb, I am so sorry. It's just not fair, especially with you being the primary caregiver.
If it's any consolation, which it never really can be, you can now sympathize with me even on that score, sad-to-say. W is going to take half of my take-home pay now under the pretense of what's "best" for our children. All due to government calculated tables and formulae. You've gotta' love the "State" and it's thinly veiled attempt at income redistribution.
No, I shouldn't sound so flippant. It is scary. I am really wondering now how either of my kids' parents are going to make it, especially me.
But hang in there, lady. I have no doubt you'll make it just fine. You have a great head on your shoulders and the strength of character to not only survive but to thrive.
