To wonder if you could do this

[imsometimessophie]

Ok so I have a small regular income from an inheritance (£700) and I could top that up with paid work.

If I just left - walked out, with kids, could I live off of this? Would there be any legal repercussions?

If you just left what? Do you mean your DH? I am not sure you have given enough info for advice to be offered. What do you mean by legal reprecussions?

If you are married, your DH may have a claim on the money that gives you the income........

Google for your nearest Law Centre, they give legal advice too people that cant afford a solicitor.
You might be entitled to some benefits such as Council Tax benefit to top up your income. You might also be able to apply for a Housing association or council house.

Depends whose kids you walk out with.

Mama but then I’d also have a claim on his much bigger income?

£700/week or £700/month. £700/month won’t go far but you might be entitled to housing benefit and child tax credits which would boost your income. Use the benefits calculator on www.turn2us.org.uk to check what you might be entitled to.

No one can legally force you to stay with your DH he might take you to court for custody arrangements for the children but it is unlikely he’ll get full custody unless you have issues you haven’t disclosed.

You clearly want to leave. Life is short. Life is very short. Don’t waste more life being unhappy. £700 a month would be tight, he’d have to give you around 15% if his income for the D.C. and you have a 50% claim on marital assets. You may also be entitled to spousal maintainance.

No he wouldn’t be giving me anything I wouldn’t want to see him again which is why I want to go with dcs. No benefit entitlement due to inheritance.

Are you married?
