Hi , my husband and I are separating. We have 1 dependent child. He refuses to work even though he is fit, educated and able. I work full time. He has always been controlling about financial decisions (part of the reason we are separating). He is keen to have at least 50/50 access to my daughter - and takes her school most days. I am really struggling to live with him until the house sells - I find him really mean and manipulative and a bit of a bully - if it doesn't suit him then it doesn't happen. I wondered if I could rent somewhere until the house sells. Would this affect me having 50/50 custody of my daughter? I would obviously make sure the rental had a bedroom for my child. I'm willing to pay him some of the money for bills (only a teacher so it won't go far tho) and hoping that he will get a job to pay the mortgage and bills for our house. Has anyone done this??
