I have come a long way in this process. I have been far too nice in this process. If she files, or even approaches me about collaborative divorce, I am going to ask for joint physical custody. I am the one who picks them up when they are sick. I am the one who meets them off the bus every day. I'm the one that takes them to swimming practice or theater class.
I also am not going to live my life on $25k take-home pay a year while she lives on $52k. I did nothing to warrant taking my family from me.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally I'm hearing a little fight in you. Fight for your kids, fight for your financial well being, fight for your self respect. Will this help save M? Probably not...but what's going to happen with your M will happen whether you play nice or fight!
