Well my mum worked in accounts before she has all us (5 kids) and didn't go back to work until I was 16 (almost out of school). And whilst at home, she cooked, cleaned, did laundry, took us and picked us up from school, friends houses etc and all the other running about kids need. She now works as a site manager in building. The contingency, well y parents will never get divorced (they are too solid) and well in the event of being widowed they both work high up well paid jobs. So they can look after themselves and of course they have life insurance. I'm a SAHM mum at the moment, my daughter is only 7 months. I intend to be a SAHM until I've had all my children and they are in school (i'll work part-time until they go to high school). My contingency? Well I won't be getting divorced. And we have life insurance. So we're alright!

You are going to have to get out and find you a job, your divorced so you are not allowed to be a stay at home, MOM. If you didn't put it in the divorce all he has to do is give you what ever child support the judge ordered. Your atty. should told you to file for him to furnish transportation, I don't what kind of atty you had, but he should have ask for all these things that you aren't able to afford .
I don't believe your Ayty. represented you very well. Your husband got off without any thing I guess you get child support, You need to take your divorce to another atty and get him to file that you weren't represented by a atty. that was capable to handle your case. The judge may understand and see how you were done wrong

Get a good lawyer! Depending on how long you've been out of the workforce and what your skills were before you started staying at home, he may have to provide full spousal support on top of child support. You would then have to get your own car using that money. Laws are slightly different in each state, so it's best to find a good lawyer.

A real problem. Each state has various laws on divorce decrees.
Statement: If you are "divorced" most of these issues should have been resolved PRIOR to the divorce.
Sounds like he is liable for support for the children and your self.
Consult with a "Legal Aid Group" or a Woman's Advocate Group" for detailed advice. Chow

You would really need to consult a lawyer. If you cannot afford one contact your local courthouse, they should have a legal assistance program to assist with the paperwork. Being as though he is working, he may be able to fight to say he needs the car to get to and from work. Everything is 50/50 as you are married, so he may need to pay you out 50% of the cars worth. Hopefully that will be enough to get you something reliable. Best of luck, hang in there.

normally all the in's and out's are hashed out during the divorce process. it helps speed up things and saves you money on attorneys if both of you have it all figured out prior and just hand in what you are gonna do.
legally since its in his name, etc....he doesn't have to do a thing but pay child support, etc.
This is why its always important for women to never just let the husband do it all. They need own bank accounts, credit card, car in their name or least name on 1 car together, same with house.
If either person just has thier name...then its theirs but also their responsibility as well.

in the divorce decree.. that car should have been granted to one of the two of you.. if it was aqcuired during the marriage.. because it makes it marital property. The fact that it is in his name has nothing to do with it. it is community property,. again if it was bought during the marriage and the judge should have awarded it to one or the other. if it has not been awarded that way,, you need to go back to court and attempt to get it.. ecpecially since he is working and has the ability to get another car and you are not and cant. so no.. legally he doesnt have to provide transportation.. unless it says so in the decree

I would go to a Woman's resource center for help and answers.
Some (most ) men are jerks and resent the fact the marriage is over .
Other men are justified on being vindictive because the wife was caught cheating.
What ever the case ,you need answers from a professional ,you will get varied advice on here .
Good luck.
