Hi Mia, I agree with Rouky on the financials and I would encourage you to see a L and become clear about the financial situation. I know he has started on the mediation route (I'm not sure how that works) but the risk to you is he may not progress that and you are left in a poor financial position.
You may want to consider seeing a couple of L's for a free half hour consultation appt. Most offer this as far as I'm aware. My stance was, I don't want to D - but I do need for us to resolve financials. However, H wasn't willing to sort financials without a D, so it may have contributed towards him filing for D (but who knows, he may have done that anyway.)
Importantly, this isn't just about you, it's about him properly supporting his kids and I don't think you should hesitate to ensure your and their security during this difficult time. Has he done anything to move forward the mediation he suggested, by the way??
