Most professionals call the house contents a "petty" issue but with no money it seems real to me.
We have 3 bedroom family home full of "stuff". The kids will be with me primarily and we want to ensure as little change for them in the house as possible so we won't really be dividing the house contents in half really. My spouse says that I can just pay half of what it costs him to set up his new place (a 2 bedroom appartment probably). It seems to me that I should have to pay for half of the cost of brand new stuff when the stuff we have is years and years old. I think I should pay 1/2 the replacement cost of the stuff we have. Anyone know the legal way to handle this or the way it is typically done?
Thanks.
