[quote=Anonymous]OP -- you have been getting solid advice. Divorce is going to change your life and there's nothing you can do about it. Alimony to allow you to stay home until the youngest graduates HS is totally off-your-rocker unrealistic unless you have a child that is totally incapacitated with disability. My ex was married for 16 years and his ex wife stayed home for a decade and then went back to work for a pittance as a paraeducator and even she didn't get anywhere near the amount of alimony you want -- not for lack of trying. The attorneys will look at your earning potential. If you have earning potential, you will have to get a job. Period. Kids do well with working mothers. It's not like you NEED to be a SAHM. You just want to be. Stay married or marry someone else who will give you that life. Otherwise, get ready to see your name on a W2. Stop being selfish and unrealistic. GET A JOB. [/quote]
