Hi Bill:
I didn't have any problems either, but then again I didn't want anything
at all except out and my kids. I got both.
Women are at a disadvantage in divorces though. Unless there is a lot
of money, etc to be had, usually the life style of the woman and
children drops considerably because of income. In California everything
is split down the middle. And IMO that is the way it should be. If the
majority of the money and property happens to have come into the
marriage via the woman it is still split, just as it is if the money and
property comes in via the man.
IMO though there are no winners in a divorce, especially hard hit are
the children. But sometimes things just can't be avoided. And someone
always gets hurt either financially, or emotionally, or both.
