[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I take the money I will still feel tied to him. He has used this money to control and limit me (pushing me into being a SAHM even after kids started school) all my adult life. I’m done.

I want to see his face when I tell him I don’t want it and I don’t need it.[/quote]

that's precisely why you get the money. You said so yourself: YOU SPENT THE LAST 20 YEARS DOING THE BULK AMOUNT OF RAISING YOUR KIDS, TAKING CARE OF THE HOUSEHOLD AND TAKING CARE OF YOUR HUSBAND. Hopefully you also managed to take care of yourself, but then again, you say you're burned out and fed up.

You managed everything so he could advance in his career and workplace. TAKE THE MONEY.  If in 20-30 years you want to give it away, do that instead.

And to top it off you were forced to be a SAHM, let me guess, so he would have even less to do for the household and family. No worries whilst you handled every single thing.

TAKE THE MONEY.  Your satisfaction will come once you all sign the docs, and move out. Take a long vacation, find a new place, and continue to raise your children and reinvigorate your career and good friendships. [/quote]
