[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To answer your original question OP, it doesn't sound like there is anything you can do that you are willing to do. You've shot down all the suggestions we've offered. So I guess your stuck until the magic money fairy comes to your house.[/quote]

Yep, this.

OP, you live in lala land. And it sounds like you lived in lala land during your marriage too. You saw your hubby was a deadbeat and divorce was coming, yet you didn't begin preparing yourself financially to take care of your kids on your own. This is why I advise women to never never never EVER rely on a man for their income and livelihood. Ever! Especially if you have kids. You have to do something to bring in your own money, and keep that money to yourself. You never know what these men will do to you, and having your own money means you have options!

OP, do you have family that you and the kids could live with for a while, so you can get on your feet financially? Could you rent out the house and live somewhere closer to better paying jobs? Do you have any kind of support network and people who help you where you live? If not, you need to move.

I think you need to expand your way of thinking and stop being so closed minded. You have vetoed many good ideas offered here, but your situation sounds pretty rough. You will always be stuck in that situation if you don't explore alternatives.[/quote]
