No stop supporting his sorry ***, you owe him nothing! |

Absolutely not.
However, you do need to contact a divorce attorney. You need to get in a position where you are not responsible for any debts he incurs. He can use your financial information to order new credit cards, etc.
You need to make sure you are not on any residential leases and take care of all other business that severs your financial tie to him.
This is best done by your divorce attorney. Good luck!
****If you have evidence of his violent behavior towards you, police reports, etc, it is extremely doubtful the judge would order you to pay him spousal support. |

I'm sure the courts will want him pay support to the child if your child is living wth you |

No, but if your son is living with you, your future ex will have to pay you child support. An attorney will help you figure this out. Good luck. |
|

?
 |
good question, if I had my way, not only would you not support him, but he would be court ordered to work and pay you child support or face prison |

No. Even married you didn't have to support him. Get a divorce as soon as you can. You are half responsible for any debt he incurs. |

No. The law will be on your side too. Maybe consider getting pepper spray or a taser. |

No. Move on with the divorce, get a better lawyer than he gets. |

No. He needs to start supporting his self. Seeing he was violent (I hope you have police reports). Even in a divorce you wouldnt have to pay alimony. What a p*ssy he is! Take care! |

Most likely not-but it depends on your state laws and how much he pursues it. But, with you having the child I would say most definitely no. Having documentation of the violence would help as well. IE: Police reports, pictures etc. |

no way let him suffer |

Are you his legal parent or gaurdian?
No?
Then you are not responsible for him. He can always get a job as a bouncer at a night club. |

as far as i am aware, no woman needs to support a husband if you are the one who is going to be taking custidy of your child! Especially if this man was abusive. Good for you for leaving!!!!!
your best bet would be to ask a lawyer though |
|

teigan_levi
|
no if you no longer live together as man and wife you don't have to give him a penny in fact he now owes you money ion child support so he should go get a job! |
|

Answer This!

Nope, he was violent, you dont have to do anything for him. |

>see a expert on this issue so you know better and understand the whole scenario
>and let him look for an expert so both of you will be enlighten in this matter |

Nope, you aren't going to have to support him. Congratulations on having the courage to get out of a bad situation. The loser will either have to find another girl to take advantage of or get a job to support himself. |

i used to be so offended when people told me i was co-dependant until i did the research. he is still abusing the situation and taking advantage of your hard work. cut him off. it's HIS problem! he needs to grow the hell up!!!! and only will when he's on his ***. it's not your fault if he end up homeless living in a box, it's HIS!
take your power back!!
show your son an example of a strong woman! and he will grow to be attracted to women who are strong, instead of trying to take advantage of them like he has seen men do unto you. |

NO, NO and NO...let his lazy butt do something for himself...Stay away from him before she hurts you more...It is not your obligation to support him either...He is old enough to support himself...The problem is, he is accustomed of being supported, and relied from you over the years... It is time for him to change and face the real world... |

This depends on many things. Did you support him during the entire time of the marriage? How long were you married? One thing you have in your favor is if he is not working it should be hard for him to hire a good attorney. |

What?! First of all let it be known that your oblagtion is your son, and the same thing would be told to him if you were the abuser, but you arent so this goes to you. Does he have his two legs? does he have his two arms? then he can go out into the work force and join all the others that are sturrgleing to make a living as well. He needs to be supporting you not the other way around |

dont even talk to him for three months. This is what is recomended to women at abuse shelters where i live. you need to break the ties completly. Do not even let the kids see him for this time if you have any. Move if you have to. You need this time to heal your thinking patterns and your body. Dont listen to his poor me lies and bs. any more. I woould suggest a book called co-dependent no more. It will help you break the ties and help heal you. I am a retired counselor and i have seen alot of this. You need support from other family and other women to get strong again. Find a group or a counselor to see or you can mail me if you need. Blessings to you girl. |

HELL NO!
You take care of yourself and your kid and let him deal on his own. |
