How does a single mother make it?

Good luck with your decision, I pray you and yours are making the right choice, as you only get one shot, live life well.;)

I can't address how to make it on your own, but a nurse can do well for him, or herself, I think you'll do just fine. I worry more about your mental state, not your financial one, good luck.

Thank you,

As far as my mental state, I am a tough cookie. Actually, I worry more about my kids. My financial state doesn't matter as long as I have enough to make ends meet.

Depending on him? Pffft, it's not depending on him - it's making the bastard pay. :mrgreen: Hope it all works out.

I don't like to overpay for a lawyer either. I would like to get a high quality lawyer for a value price, meaning a reasonable and affordable price.

Then don't go to lawyers that heavily advertise, because they have to pay for that advertisement somehow.

Alimony does not stand in Indiana and all debt plus assets incurred prior to marriage belong to you only. I actually moved out and bought a house last year. If he wanted he could take MY house, which would be pointless, because I could try to take his house.

Child support, my friend, one will never get away with not paying. I don't want to take him to the cleaners, but I want to ensure my kids are taken care of. I also want to work, but as I nurse, facilities expect you to work nights which is not realistic with two small kids. I have sent resumes to doctors offices, but of course the pay sucks and it is boring, but at least it is a pay check.

I will not put up with being called names and pushed around in front of my kids. He does not do it on a regular basis, but if you start putting up with that it never stops. It is always worse around the winter months and holidays, but there is still no excuse for anyone, especially and educated man to do that.

Indiana must be a good state if they don't allow alimony. You still get away with more since you have a vagina. Remember what I said, "GEEEEEEE, I wish I was born with a vagina" next time you smile and talk your way out of a ticket or get hired at a job because they need to fill a quota to hire more females. Anyway, can't say I blame you for refusing to put up with mental abuse.

You could always have a sex change.
 
I hope that if he's abusive on the phone, you are recording it and if he's abusive in person, a camcorder is recording it. Even a small webcam on the computer can capture those unique family moments any judge would love to see.
You are your own best advocate. Best of luck to you.

You're doing the right thing. You got a good head on your shoulders. Just stick to your guns and everything turn out alright.

I usually just pick up the phone to call the police and he runs out the door. That stops it anyway. This is my house in my name only. So I have that independence anyway.

Are you trying to imply that you have a bad ass? As the anti thesis to Bill O'Reilly, I didn't think that was possible!
