my husband & i are divorcing after 8 years. i worked until our 2nd child was born 6 years ago, staying home to care for what became 3 children. during this time, i began an associates degree when time would allow. my husband was the breadmaker, obviously, $3800 ave / mo. i bring in a $600 each month from an annuity, there's always something from me to contribute to household expenses. we own a house and a car, have a loan on a minivan. He wants: the house; 50/50 visitation (1 wk @ his place, 1 wk @ mine) which would in then turn eliminate his duty of child support if we are both covering expenses on our own while we each have the kids. i'm of course looking for a job. the most i can afford to work till May is 15 hrs, due to full time school (graduate then) & 3 kids. Before he asked for these things, I asked for min. child support, regular visitation incl'd any extra times (we don't have to only stick to the times the judge says) & the house for the kids and the business.
