So...I married my ex 9 years ago. We have 2 kids 4 &6. I earn over 100K with pension, while she currently earns nothing with a sore neck from an accident last month after the separation date.
We agree on 50/50...but thats it.
She wants full CS at $1600/month; And $500/month SS for 7 years. Plus she wants the 50% of 9 years pension and oh ya the house.
I offered the house if she dropped the pension; $800/month CS as its 50/50 and $1200/month SS for 7 years.
The mediator stated this situation is more financial vs compassionate; as
i took 18 months off for my kids when they were born; did 50% of the chores around the home; did 100% of repairs and was with the kids when she was working PT a few years back.
Currently, she walked out on the separation negotiation to travel back to her home country for 2 months; leaving me with the kids. She just left. Said her dad was sick....My dad is sick too.....but I still have mouths to feed and bills to pay.
My questions are:
1) What are chances I could get full custody?
2) Can she still get full CS when we have 50/50 custody and living arrangements?
3) Is going to court worth it?
