BEC

Caught up a bit here. Re-Read Jobs posts ... I agree with them completely here. And I also like the point asitis made about mediation ... especially when they do provide some support on co-parenting, something I think you both would benefit from, and its cheaper. Its the route W and I opted for ... twice though it never came to be.

Do I be nice and allow her to stay in the home and continue with the vehicle situation until the d is final. Or do I go the opposite direction and move home and take the house and the car back?


Up to this point in your sitch it seems to me you have been playing the passive/aggressive .... by that I mean on the surface you were paying the bills, doing things around the house in order to still have some sense of control then when you felt helpless you would press, stalk, push the issues.

At this point in the game, If it were me ... I might play a bit more on the hardball side of things. Your W has already set the tone here and basically submitted a total BS agreement like she will get it all here. Regardless of saving your M or not its time to face this head on, protect your kids and yourself. I hit that point and told the lawyers I would most likely have agreed to whatever W wanted had it not been for S, however I would not loose one day of custody nor one dollar for his sake .. anything I were to give up would hurt him 50% of the time and I was not about to give an inch.

Again .. this is your W's choice and she will have to feel the consequences ... up to now, she has had it made, you have enabled her ... so why would she not want to continue calling all the shots as she has been this whole time?
