How much do you have to protect in terms or assets and children? If not much to lose, then don't worry about the lawyer. Personally, in my situation, I wouldn't show up to the fight unarmed. I'd hire a lawyer.

It is not things that bother us, but the stories we tell ourselves about things.
Ok thanks everyone. I dont have $ to protect, but my WW has a small sum she will definitely try to hide from me(she was the bread winner). MORE importantly, i have to fight for my son. I dont think ill make it if i dont have him. Hes all i have left. We're so close, that i dont know how to function without him around. My WW has already taken everything else, i refuse to give my S up too.
Those of you that pray, please, please send prayers up for me. I need them in this worst way on this one.

E,
I can't remember, are you in IC? You have some very unhealthy attachments to other human beings. I love my kids to death, but can certainly function and be productive when they are not with me.

Yep, in IC. Realized i was codependent not too long ago.
That said, i dont have any family where i live. Ive always worked but being a sahd has been my main job for some years now. I realize i need to build some new relatuonships, but i dont care how many i build, mr R with my S will always stand above the rest.
I can function w/o S around, but my life has revolved around my S, W, and work for quite some time. There just werent enough hours in the day to do anyrhing else. Not having my S under the same roof will tear me up.
As a young man i prided myself in not needing anyone else, but things can change when you have a fsmily and forget yourself.

My WW wanted my car out of "her" garage since she needed to have her car stored there because it was having some issues outside with rodents getting in. That said, im thinking i will take my car to storage(its a stored vehicle, not daily driver) and pay until i move out. Out of financial necessity im thinking i will give her $70 less toward mortgage because im out of a covered parking spot nd those cost $. It has nothing to do w/ being vindictive(i can see how it would look that way), but storage will cost more than $70.
Any advice?

Does the house have only one covered spot? How was it determined initially that your car would be parked there and not hers?
Me: 44 H: 44 Kids: 20, 16, 16, and 10 Together/Married: 22 years H announced he was emotionally detached and considering D: 4/4/16 H announced he is going to try to stay and reconnect: 5/1/16

2 stall garage. She initially had her car in there and we had storage items on the other side. Once the other spot was cleaned out i began to use it. She got a new vehicle 2 yers ago so she wants both stalls now since she wants a D. If there was only 1 stall i would have given that to her from the start as i did the only open one. She has 2 vehicles now....1 is older and helps to keep mileage off of new vehicle since she drives long distance.
