In reply to If you were planning a divorse what would you do?, posted by happyflower on October 8, 2005, at 21:03:47
Being married to an attorney, the very first thing I would do is to talk to one. Tell him or her that this maybe 2 - 3 years down the road, or never. But let them tell you about the laws in your state. Find out about how much support you can expect. The courts are not granting full support to stay-at-home moms anymore. You'll be expected to go and get a job (pretty sure). Look in the yellow pages. You should be able to find an attorney willing to talk to you for free or a nomial fee. It may be a shock to find out how much more difficult it will be to live without your husband. Or you'll be able to develop a plan to start working on some goals. Either way, I think you'll find it valuable to find out the reality of divorce in your state.
