Antlers,
Something about your post really bothered me. Maybe if I was in your shoes I'd feel the same but you sound really angry at some perceived injustices. Quite certain this is going to be an unpopular post but your W has earned 50% of your current assets as she has contributed 50% to your family. If she has a retirement plan you should have a 50% claim on hers as well. Chances are that she was banking on you and had nothing set up for herself.

On the child support issue, you have grounds to push for physical custody if you are staying in the family home.

Maybe your post struck a nerve in my mind cause my W wants nothing. Think that hurts worse than being asked for her fair share.
