What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
I am filing for divorce pro se. We are doing all the paperwork together, very amicably. I make a considerable amount more than my husband does and have a very large retirement fund as opposed to his very small one. Our children are 14 and 16 and will continue to live with me. Visitation will not be an issue because they can spend as much time as they want with him (he's moving two miles away from me).
Their father will continue to pay for their medical and dental insurance, as he works for a much larger company and gets much better rates. In return, I will not ask for any additional child support. I'm afraid if I ask for CS then he'll ask for his share of my retirement and I'll be on the losing end of that deal.
My question is how to word the Original Petition For Divorce and the Decree Of Divorce to reflect that I will accept his payment of Medical and Dental Insurance in lieu of child support?
