Marriage & Divorce - 19 June 2007

how to determine how much the child support will be? I mean I've heard that its actually 10% of the parent(s) income. Lets say if the mother has child custody and father needs to pay child support and he makes over $ 200,000. Does anyone know how much that is? I have a friend going through a divorce. Thanks

I am a 21 year old married mother of a 3 year old boy. I've been a stay at home mother ever since I had my son. I've been looking for a job for about a year now here in Shirley, NY and I cant seem to find anything. I've sent my resume to numerous companies and nobody calls me back. I am fraustrated of trying. My resume is not bad...but the few companies that have called me are out of my way from home and dosent pay for day care. My husband wants me to have another baby....but I really want to work and become independent and have a professional job and money in my pocket to buy whatever I want. I am so confused. Any suggestions as to what I should do with my future? Everyone tells me my son needs a brother/sister but just thinking about continuing to be a stay at home mom with no social life for another 3 years drives me crazy!!!! I want a social life but at the same time I want another baby too. Please give me advice.

My wife was taking a walk while pregnant with our twins and was hit by a car. We lost the twins and she was injured pretty bad. I actually have two questions. The first is what can I do to reasure her that the death of the twins is not her fault. She continues to blame herself for the accident, what can I do to make sure she doesn't fall into a depression?
My second question is, she's been in the hospital for a week now and she hasn't seen our other two kids(2 and 3 months) since the accident and it is hell for her to be away from them. She's been begging me to let her come home and as much as I want to, I don't know if I should. We can afford to have a nurse and whatever we need for her to be at home and monitored. So, should I let her come home?

Only serious answers please!

Please only people who are serious. I feel as though I have no one to talk to, and I can't afford counseling..

Question about meeting in the judges chambers?
When my EX beat me up in another state( years ago), and I took him to court, I was given a court appointed attorney. I am now living in FL, he's from another state, and they said I have to have my own attorney. He has one that showed up for the 1st court date stating his client knew nothing of the proceedings. I showed the judge copy of receipt for the supeona. It was then rescheduled for tomorrow morning in her chambers.

What do I need to know or expect? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

The charge is harrassment / stalking.

Thanks for your time in answering this question.

Just what exactly does this mean to have closure?

Does this mean they wan't to get the last word on something and want a man to keep his mouth shut?

I was married to a sociopath who worked on and off for over a decade. There was not one vow or 10 commandment that he did not violate at least once. My family, his family and our friends encouraged me to divorce him. I tried to save the marriage but paid a great deal to him financially and emotionally. My self esteem and self love was at its lowest. He cheated, lied, stole money and use drugs. I finally had enough and divorced him. I am in counseling and determined to move on with my life. When I have to speak to my ex I usually catch him lying and trying to confuse me. Although he rarely contacts our children, he makes promises to them that he does not keep. He is going to marry another woman in the next month. I want to stop being angry at him and move on. To contact him would only cause another fight. How can I get closure without talking to or contacting him?

Obviously no one wins from having an alcoholic in the home, but who do you believe are the victims most often? Why do you believe their suffering is the more pronounced? Thx.

Today is my parents' 35th anniversary. Their marriage survived 18 years of infidelity, two illegitimate children (from that 18 year affair), and emotional abuse. They are now one of the healthiest and happiest couples I know.

Granting a few exceptions, I ask, if they can make it work, why can't many others?

I'm very proud of them, and I'm using them as my example of what to do and what not to do when I get married. But because of them, I truly believe marriage is a permanent commitment. They rock.

i've been with my husband for almost 9 years, married for 3, and lately all i can think about is leaving him. it's strange that years ago i was crazy head-over-heels in love with him, but now i can barely stand to be in the same room. i just don't feel happy with him. we have a 2 year old son together and i don't know if it's fair to him if i leave his father for my own happiness. we have almost split many times on my account, but he always asks me to come back and i always end up staying. he's not a terrible person, he's just angry and stressed out ALL the time, and it's hard to live in a house where i constantly have to walk on eggshells to keep him happy. he isn't violent, he just yells and places alot of blame on other people. my son is also starting to notice when i'm sad and asks me "mommy, what happened"? i wonder if i't possible to fall out of love, and what that feels like? any advice?

I always feel uncomfortable being naked with a new partner for the first time. I can't help but wonder how I "measure up" to previous men she's been with. I'd say I fall within the average category. What can I do to relax?

My fiance and I met on yahoo personals. I fell hard for him and we moved in together after a year of dating. I lost a baby and went alittle clingy. Three months ago I considered leaving because I found that he had a bogus (non-searchable) personals page on yahoo. He told me he had no intention of ever cheating or even flirting, just wanted to look out of bordum and habit. So ever since then I have been ultra sensitive about his net activities. I found the porn site groups and all. I asked him to stop and he said he would if I quite smoking. He said if he fell off the wagon and looked he would tell me....I am so confused I want to belive that this is all just a guy thing and he really does love me. Is it going to go away? Will he be honest? He treats me good, we don't fight, he acts in every other aspect like I am #1...Don't tell me to watch it with him though because he hates to talk about sex and feels uncomfortable that I even know about him watching porn (??)

My friend married a US citizen (shes illegal) and she's waiting for the response on her green card (its been pending for 5 yrs). Her husband is now divorcing her because they have grown apart, but what she's wondering will the fact that she didn't take her soon to be ex-husband's last name and stuck with her maiden name, will that affect the process of her green card?

My husband was talking last night about his frustration about their not being enough intamacy in our relationship (I am not really a physical person i have autsim/heart failure) but when he was yelling he was saying things like I never messed around before marriage because I thought I would do that stuff with my WIFE, and be able to share that with my WIFE. He did not say share that with ME. This makes me feel like he's angry at me for him possibly marrying the wrong person, it felt almost to me like he was angry about his choice......did he mean it that way?
