Common Questions and Answers about Should divorce laws be changed

divorce

Avatar f tn I dunno, I think guys get took on this alot and the laws need to be changed to fit todays world. I think if your wanting a divorce, the thing that needs to be done is someone needs to file. I do not think you can fight it anymore and I do not think the courts care who is cheating. Look up the laws in your state. I am not judging you, but I feel sorry for some of these dads that have no say in their futures anymore.
10707428 tn?1415569790 Well your username needs to be changed from "marijuana19" for starters. I'm assuming you're 19 years old and an avid user of a drug that is not yet legal in many states...I was married and pregnant at 18. Husband did drugs, I didn't. So I kicked him out, I wasn't having that around my kid. Divorce took a year because he refused to sign any papers. I was divorced at 19. Now I'm happily married to my best friend, but it took a lot of growing up...
Avatar n tn my boyfriend whos getting a divorce in march comes from a very rich family whos crazy about having kids on their side. my boyfriends mother put it in her sons head to divorce his wife and take their son. the mother has no contact with the kid anymore. my boyfriend got his wife into drugs and thats what they hold agaisnt her. i dont get along with my boyfriends parents at all because they think im a gold digger.
Avatar f tn I served him paper two years ago but signed them to late. SHOULD I tell him about the baby in hopes that he will then file for divorce. Or just let him discover my growing baby.
Avatar f tn I was hoping my divorce would be over soon so i could just wait but i also heard that a divorce cant be finalized untill the baby is born
Avatar m tn They are changing the laws in India, but as Brice said, laws won't stop the lawless. Until the men start showing respect for women, this will continue to happen; laws can't force that respect.
Avatar f tn Get out now. If your hubby is anything of an ******* he can use that baby against you in the divorce and you'll be screwed because that baby is proof of infidelity. Even though you guys have that understanding of not being together he can still use it to get whatever he wants out of the divorce because in the court of law you are still married.
Avatar f tn I've done a really stupid thing. See my father in law and mother in law are divorced but they are on good terms about it. My father in law has been dating this women for over a year, they have had a very rocky relationship. Despite that though when we go over there I talk with her a lot and were kinda close.
Avatar n tn In the divorce paperwork they will set visitation. Idk what the laws are where you are but here in KY you can not file for divorce until the child is born. You can file for legal separation but that is it. I would go ahead and call a lawyers and see what the rules are in your area. You may be able to file but not go to court until after baby is here. In divorce papers they will set up child support, visitation, medical support for baby etc.
Avatar f tn re almost due, you should be taking it easy! running after a dog is not okay and could cause torn membranes. ouch!
Avatar f tn You have to be very careful in Virginia....being as it's a commonwealth state. VA rules/laws can differ dramatically from those of regular states. VA has been notorious for favoring the mother regardless of the situation. You need to check out (remove the spaces) www. divorcesource . com They're are very knowledgeable people on there. You can also look into the official code of virginia for laws governing child custody and divorce/child support etc.
Avatar f tn Did u already file for divorce? Cuz that can take months. The petition has to be filed for 30 days then 60 additional days at least to get a court hearing minimum. But u got to take care of it before your bf has any legal rights over your child. But u can still name your bf on the birth certificate but the other lady is right he won't be the legal father just the presumed father.
Avatar f tn It may be just the hormones, because when i was pregnant with #3 i could not stand my son, God knows i love him with all my heart and will give my life for him, but i just wanted to stuff his mouth and not hear him, or see him, i felt horrible, i still do sometimes but soon after my mamy was birn everything went back to normal, i really hope it gets better between you and your in laws =)
Avatar f tn If you are in Costa Rica, where the divorce laws do require a three-year wait after getting married to file for divorce, please do talk to an attorney in the meantime. The bright side is that courts in Costa Rica unfailingly believe the woman if she describes any kind of abuse or the kind of stuff you are describing. You might be able to get a legal separation or a restraining order. Talk to an attorney.
481982 tn?1208346254 t think things will change, so I say a divorce may be the way to go. I was married to a man with similar problems and things just got worse and I got out and now I'm happy. It's very stressful to live under the conditions your living under. After 15 years I think you deserve a little more from life than what your getting. Whatever you do I wish you the best.
Avatar f tn s how it was when my husband and I lived at my parents house for about a month. We would tell them to let us learn, and nothing changed. Good luck though.
Avatar f tn So we planned to start a family and I got conceived in the 4th month after my marriage. Everything was fine and my in-laws took extreme care of me and were happy. But in my 4th month of pregnancy, they all of a sudden asked me if I know the sex of the baby in my womb and they asked me to go to some small hospitals and check it. I didnt understand why they were saying so. But I didnt do it.
Avatar f tn My husband & I have been married for 23 yrs & have a 16 yr-old daughter. Through all the years, I've had an issue with his interest in porn and the fact that he's overly "friendly" to other woman. He admits that he has boundary issues and says he'll work on it. We've stayed together through his affair 11 yrs ago, charges for sexual assault 6 yrs ago, sexting in the last few months and now 2 claims of sexual harassment yesterday.
Avatar m tn We live in SC and the divorce laws are sticky here. I am not sure how much a divorce will cost me or how I will deal with life being "single." The guy I am in a relationship with is in the army. It just gets more and more complicated. I am not sure what to do. I want to leave my husband to be with my boyfriend, but I am unsure of the unknown of what will happen once I tell my husband. I dont think I can tell him Im cheating on him bc my BF is in the army. Not sure how that works.
Avatar f tn Hi there, As I stated I am chronically ill, 3 diagnosed very painful conditions. It's really heartening to see someone tell you youre disrespecting your husband when you don't have a thimbleful of facts to base this on. I HAVE never mentioned letting my husband off the hook as you put it, this was actually the 1st time I was brave enough to put my thoughts into words. My husband has mentioned divorce every few months for years, he has told me why he stays.
4528412 tn?1357069833 It is time, right now, to have him throw himself into that. And you should be working on it as well. And hopefully in the very near future you can have your own place where you don't have anyone that has to 'help' out. That will definitely help things. So, talk to your boyfriend about this and see what his thoughts are.
Avatar f tn I feel like that would be better done after the baby is born and a bit older, and things settled down.Your 3 year old doesn't need a new baby AND Daddy moving out all at once, not to mention the stress on you...
Avatar f tn I've been married to my husband for 11 years now. This is my first marriage, and his third. He has been controlling and emotionally/verbally abusive for most of our marriage. Six months ago, I told him that I wanted a divorce, and he told me that he would do anything to keep our marriage intact, so we went to counseling. The verbal abuse stopped, but the control didn't. I have 2 daughters, one is a teenager and one is in her early 20s, and they both live with us.
