We haven't even discussed it yet with them. Ones in first grade the other is only 3.5. I want to give them one more good Christmas and do as much preparation as possible before talking to them. They are the only reason I tried..
Omg, so young... And so far to go as a single parent.
Hope you're a strong woman. You do sound like you are.

She will get half of your 401k balance as of the date of separation.

The kids will remain on your insurance but she will not.

Mass law will dictate how much support and/or alimony you will end up paying.

She will get the house.

Your kids will hate you.

Hope she was worth it.
That’s a shame men will break down other men like that. Yeah he may have been wrong, but you act like what you’ve just mentioned is ok. Even if she simply wanted to leave him she would get the same thing. Innocent men go through this all the time.

Result of recent divorce here in Mass (SHE wanted divorce):

She got the house.

She got the entire 401k, but none of the pension.

Kids were old enough to decide where they went. One went with dad, one with Mom.

DESTROYED lives, I don't understand how someone could do this to their family.
Exactly. The law gives a woman incentive to take take take knowing it wrecks the lives of all involved but her. That’s why they’re more willing to file for divorce first whether she was wrong or not. They leave with more than they came with which is totally ridiculous.
