my wife has spent our entire married avoiding getting a job, we are in the process of separating and I am worried that I will be forced to shoulder the burden of supporting her for the rest of her life (its the main reason for the marriage failing) I want to have the children 50per cent of the time but she is already starting to come up with reasons that cant happen and I feel these are purely made up to give her an excuse not to get a job and pay her way.
has anybody else been in this situation ? and before anybody has a go I am not trying to avoid supporting my children, I will quite happily and willingly support them in all their needs and wants but I don’t feel it is right that I have to work 50 hours a week while she sits at home and does nothing for the 3 days a week she doesn’t have the kids.
