If you have no proof of abuse a judge won't even consider it. If sponsorship is 3 years then SS may possibly be ordered for that length of time it is a decision only a court can make. Sponsorship is a commitment to another person and it may be viewed this way in the court.
Maybe your focus should lie more in what the EX can do now to support herself and enable her to be self-sufficient in this country. Ie. schooling. Think of it in terms of if you were a recent immigrant how would you go about becoming successful. Perhaps you can raise these ideas within the court system and at least have a record. What if she has made no efforts in say 3 years and expects you to continue to pay. Then what. Try and find some way that it is recognized that she is accountable during this period.
Discuss this with your attorney.
