I’m considering divorce. Children are 2 & 5. We own our house outright. I have no income, I gave up work after having DS1. That was a career in which it’s very hard to get a job if you have time out. However I’ve retrained, and I’m in the final stages of getting accreditation in new career and should hopefully be able to get a job in new career within a year, but those jobs tend to be part-time and fairly low income. DH earns around 50k.
My mum thinks I would be able to keep the house until the kids are 18, as that’s what happened in her divorce, but I think things may have changed? For info, I would imagine DH would want kids to stay with him some nights each week.
Any pointers welcome. Thanks.
