What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Massachusetts
Not sure where to start. I am a SAHM with two little ones (6 and 3). I have no money, no job. My husband currently pays for everything. My credit accounts are all in collections because of my unemployment and he's been trying to pay them. We don't own a home, currently rent. The only thing I do own (besides furniture and clothes) is my car.
Now, I've recently found out that he's been unfaithful (internet infidelity and porn) and I now find myself contemplating divorce. Basically with all that I've mentioned above where do I stand? I don't want to lose my kids and if there is a possibility of that, I won't even file.
I have typed up a list of "demands" that I personally feel is reasonable (ie. kids live with me, he pays for their insurance and schooling, he can have them ever other weekend and one full week out of each month) just to name a few. I don't want child support which is why I mentioned him paying for their schooling (They go to a Catholic school and I feel that is child support enough).
Any advice is greatly appreciated. I never thought I would find myself in this situation and asking about this. I'm not even sure what the first steps/next steps would be. All I know is is that I can't lose my kids.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
