I can relate to everything you guys are going through. I went through the same fears and concerns. I kept the house and ex was really angry. She actually wanted me to move away from town. I didnt think i could afford it either. I looked at apartments and they were just as costly. I went out and got 2 part time jobs. A few months after my divorce and buying the house I was laid off from my job of 10 years. I was a mess.
I get the attachement to the home where your children grew. It is a big adjustment but you can do it. It will all workout in the end.
