    Would you consider this crazy?

    I would be really careful about your ex's mental health. There are a few women in my DivorceCare group that have gone through husbands with mental health issues (paranoia, multiple personalities, severe mood swings for no reason etc). One woman has to watch her back constantly, even though her...

    So Confused!

    Ok, warning, this is part rant/question/prayer request. My husband and I have been separated for over a year now. He's been in a couple of relationships in the meantime. I have not at all. Now that his most recent relationship ended a couple of months ago and since then he's been spending more...

    Half hour free consultation with lawyer

    I think you should start your own thread as this had nothing to do with family insurance which I have no idea what that is.

    Regarding medications

    I know for a fact in my area of Ontario Canada (very high Mennonite/Amish populations) that conservative and Amish people do use mainstream, modern health care. When I was in the hospital for severe depression 4 years ago, my room mate was an Amish woman. She was getting quite in-depth treatment...

    Half hour free consultation with lawyer

    The bank couldn't/wouldn't do anything about insurance. My ex finally found a company that has made him jump through many hoops and pay through the nose, but the house is now insured again. It has affected my tenant insurance which nearly doubled when it renewed, but still within a reasonable...

    I don't know where you are located, but there is a wonderful organization called Divorce Care. I know there are many churches in the US and Canada that run a group. Check out the website divorcecare.org to find out more and find a group near you. I went for two sessions last fall and this spring...

    Music to help make it through...???

    I find that when I'm listening to regular radio stations, that when the so-called "love" songs come on, in my mind I change them to love songs about Jesus. They used to upset me a lot until somewhere along the way I began to hear them differently. I'm not even sure that I made a conscious...

    Half hour free consultation with lawyer

    I could quit claim on the title of the house, but that doesn't get me off the hook for the mortgage. The only way to do that would be if he refinanced the house into just his name, but that won't happen. He has bad credit and not enough income. Here you actually don't have to get the other...

    Hello, How do I make the best of 30 minutes of free advice from a lawyer? I don't have any money and I got a referral from a Christian law organization here in Canada. This is regarding the house that my stbx and I own jointly and have a mortgage on. The fire insurance was cancelled by the...

    Return to Maiden Name?

    I was thinking about this recently. I have only been separated for about six months. What have others done regarding their last name if they changed it when they got married? I also have two children with him. In a way I kind of want to change it back (I have on Facebook, but of course that...

    Hi, new here!

    I really recommend DivorceCare and DivorceCare 4 Kids (I think the ages are 7-14). The group I go to at a local church is absolutely amazing. Check out divorcecare. org (had to put spaces because the forum won't let me post any links) to find a local group. There may also be a sliding scale or...

    Anyone else do this?

    My STBX seems to be trying the look crappy, poor me thing. He comes to pick the kids up in the mornings and his hair is a mess (he never used to even go near a window without his hair done) etc. Poor him, yah right. Right after I moved out, he moved in with his new girlfriend (who works where I...

    Need Advice on Junior Youth Empowerment Program

    Recently we had a couple of teenagers show up on our doorstep telling us about this Junior Youth Empowerment Program (JYEP). They didn't have any literature with them at the time, so showed up again with a pamphlet. I have an 11 year old son who is old enough to go, but I'm really concerned...
