Part of the "don't leave the house" advice has to do with the leaver being labeled as abandoning the family in possible D proceedings. I spoke to an attorney before I left to stay with my parents and he said as long as you establish a visitation/custody arrangement with the WAS you can't be labeled as abandoning the family. The atty also told me to document the amount of time spent with the children so that you can make a better case for the custody that you desire in case of D.
