[quote=Anonymous]Canyou find part time work or consulting work? Just to keep your foot in the door? The real issue could be getting back into the work force, so staying at least al little current could be helpful. Or - if this is an urgent things right now, what about 8 weeks give or take of FLMA (you could take up to 12 weeks, most likely)? Use that time to get things right within your family and set some things up for the kids, and evaluate during that time what other options might exist. Think about the things you lose, and how to counter balance them. What you lose: - retirement earnings - in a divorce, you'd likely balance out retirement accounts. you'd probably get some of his retirement. Nothing really to lose here. - ability to return to work - by stepping away, you'd make it are rot find a job if you should divorce, and certainly not a higher earning job. This is the area to focus on, I Think. [/quote]
