Welcome to America-- where the guy almost always gets screwed in divorce. Try searching google for "Father's Rights" for some more information and maybe even some help. There's a good chance your lawyer isn't as well versed in this as he could be, so you should get informed as much as possible. Being "stuck with the kids" is a very offensive thing to say, IMO-- it automatically assumes because you're divorcing their mother, that you're divorcing the kids. Many fathers(most?) still love their kids dearly and would do anything they could to make things better for them(definitely, there are exceptions). The courts don't realize this. They prefer to vilify the man in every divorce-- he must have done something wrong, after all... -- Derek _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
