[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, what a great parent! He wants to check out of 70% of being a father to his children?

Some people really should not have children.  Just divorce him and get your half. He won't be around for custody, so you'll get more than 50%. [/quote]

Why not pp? I don’t know op or her husband, but doubling the salary is not something to sneer at for most people. That’s opportunity to improve savings, college savings and improve potential for higher salary down the road. Providing for kids is also part of being a parent,  why discount this aspect?[/quote]
Because money doesn't buy a parent? Jesus. If you don't want to be around your children, don't have them. Children have no choice in this world, the very least we can provide is our time and attention. They are going to be out of the house in no time, they have 6 and 8 years left. This man is going to miss 4 & 5.5 years equivalent of those 6/8 years left. He's going to miss [b]literal years[/b] of their life. I'm sorry you don't want your husband around much, but that is an extreme amount of time he's checking out of being a parent. I'm not going to pretend I think someone who would willingly miss 70% of the time with their children is a good parent.

He already doesn't want to be a parent at home, per op. Now he's trying to move away from his children. He doesn't want to be a parent. Just divorce him and he can pay child support. There is no point in being married with children to someone who doesn't want to be married with children.
