I don't believe SC is a fault state - you can get divorced for no reason at all.

You should have left him the very first time he ever touched one of your kids! If you allowed the abuse to continue (failed to report, etc.), you are as bad as he is.

LEGALLY, you are just as bad as your husband. When you first became aware of the abuse, why did you not report it to the police?

As Ceara and Nextwife said, you are LEGALLY as bad as he is. You allowed the abuse to continue for a year-- either verbally or physically. You didn't leave when he first verbally abused your kids? How long did you know him before you married him? Does it matter if you can prove fault or not if you just want out?

What difference, poster, is proving fault going to make anyway for a one year marriage? Just file for divorce and move on.

Bet you a buck she thinks she'll get alimony or a "better settlement" if she can prove fault.

We have GOT to stop looking for logic where it does not exist!

Eh, I dunno. It's just my bet. And I wisely only bet a buck.

he has the house the car and everything in the housee. i had to start all over agianhe has no job anyway so why would i want anything

You and should each be entitled to take back with you whatever you brought to the marriage. Does he have the house, car (although WHY a legally blind person would want a car, I'm not sure) and most of the stuff because it was already his when you two married a year ago?

What are you waiting it out FOR?
