Hi PM,

Thank you for responding. For me, option 3 is the most pertinent option, though when I get a job I will not be able to have the children as I would want. The only reason I would go with this option is the RESPECT aspect. I just feel I should not have to leave the marital home until the end off November. My concern though is the effect this option would have on our R.
