Hey ep, chance of reconciliation is nil, so not part of my thought process. Why did you think mediation would be gentler then litigation?
Btw, thanks for posting in such great detail on your sitch. It's been really helpful.
I am all over the place on this one, one thought is that husband and I have not been able to compromise in the past, so why should we be able to do so now? I worry that mediation will just be more anger and perhaps threats and bullying as opposed to having a neutral party resolve it based on the laws. But with the courts it could lead to a lot of crazy BS, like false allegations etc. when I asked him for child support in past, he threatened me with asking for more visitation, (he knows my biggest fear is losing time with kids) some im not sure what he is thinking right now. I am scared of the new fathers rights movement as well (not opposed to it, but in my case it would be unfair)
Would love to hear more. Was litigation as awful as its reputation?
