If in fact, she is being irresponsible and staying out late etc and not taking an active role in your child's life.... You should make her leave and you keep the child... don't pay anything for her.

No. you are responsible for the child not your wife unless the court orders alimony. get yourself together contact a lawyer and keep her from screwing you over. Good luck.

Do not pay her personal bills. You need to make sure the children are properly cared for, but beyond that she wants to be on her own so you should not pay for any of her expenses. It is self destructive for you to pay any of her bills. You will eventually need to get together with another woman and you deserve to have sound finances when you finally meet the woman who will treat you with the respect you deserve. Pay no more then you are required to.

(to be nice) pay for SOME of them.

Absolutely do not continue to pay her bills! If the bills are hers and in her name only, do not pay them. Do not allow her to take advantage of you or use you. You should continue to share the financial obligations regarding your child but that is all. I am sorry for your situation and I wish you the best.



Please get an attorney to look after you best interest in the divorce. You could really get the short end of the stick if you allow the divorce to proceed without legal representation on your part.

Well, if your name is on them, then yes, unless you want to ruin your credit score.

But if not then technically, you don't have to. Good Luck

You need to pay child support.

Only pay for them if they're under your name. Otherwise you have no reason to. If she doesn't work and can't pay them its her problem

No you shouldn't be paying her bills. Get a seperation agreement from a lawyer immediately so that your finances, bills etc are kept seperate.

Take care of your child and move on she obviously has.

Take care of the kid (as in give enough money for that) but don't pay all the bills, say I'll pay 1/3rd of the bills since you seem to use 2/3 of it and make her pay that.

give her a set date that she is going to have find a way to pay them on her own.

Get a lawyer.


MEB
If she's leaving you she better get used to paying for her own stuff. You don't have any obligation to pay for things that are hers or are in her name.

Pay for the bills that have your name on them, and the utilities. Care for your child, and don't pay her bills, she can pay them herself.

No, don't pay her bills. How come I'm a 6th grader, and you must be old (because you're about to be divorced) and you can't type at all and I can?


winegeartr
well if it was her choice to leave u i say no but if it was u then yes atleast till she gets a job

i wouldnt..now way..take the kid from her.

Talk to your lawyer about a reasonable amount of support for the child...get receipts!

Nope.

If your name is on them...you need to keep paying on them. If you don't, you'll ruin your own credit. If there are bills ONLY in her name...tell her from now on, she's responsible for them and don't pay them.
