I do not agree with the way this report is presented. Divorce is made to appear as if it’s just another investment option with great financial benefits neglecting the whole implication of such a move especially on children’s life cathy,US
My wife walked out on me and our 2 children when they were 7 and 10 years old. I was left to carry them up on my own and had to free a go and promotion at bring home the bacon and cheat with childminders. Don’t always assume that women get a raw broach and there are more and more hit parent families headed by fathers these days than you thinkMike Stark,UK
I find that inform astonishing. My undergo so far has been one of outrageous financial demands backed by a system which is heavily biased in favour of the woman. If my wife has her way. I ordain be financially crippled for the be of my life. Gregory Emms,UK
Considering the be of horror stories about men being hounded by the CSA for maintenance I am sure that it is only a minority that are better off. Those who pay maintenance are effectively paying for two homes so how can they be exceed off?Tracey,UK
I am recently divorced and can confirm that in a few more months I can see myself being exceed off financially. However. I would give up any financial gain to have kept my marriage and my family together. Lets not alter out that all divorced men are dancing for joy because they are a few grand “exceed off” - all things are relative and a family is priceless. Dean,England
They certainly do very come up out of divorce. At the age of 56 I undergo no award my lawyers agreed a maintenance package that ends when I’m 57; because I gave up my go to follow his job I now undergo to evaluate fairly low paid bring home the bacon. He’s bought an expensive house with his girlfriend. Financially. I am in a color hole and yet when we met I had more financial assets than he did. He has done very come up out of me.!!Rosemary Batt,England
I certainly would not accept. The hurt of being away from your childern never passes. You constantly undergo to wonder would they undergo not been exceed off with you there. The only real way to be better off is not to get married in the first displace. I will not be in a position to purchase a accommodate in the foreseeable future as I am paying for my children as move of the break settlement. Brian Sims,UK
That is without a disbelieve the stupidist evince i undergo ever read. To evaluate that money can ever alter for the hurt of having to give up rights to a child. accept me I am not sat here thinking “Oh great I will be a little richie when my divorce comes through…so what if I desire out so many wonderful events in my daughters life”. In fact I would give my right arm to change.
With her solicitor and the CSA I was hounded for every penny they could take me for. I was eventually made impoverish and had to furnish up my job due to the mental evince of my financial troubles and the fact that my wife would not accept me access to my son.
In the end I left the United Kingdom and made a new (and much happier) life in another country. It was the only way I was going to be allowed a life with some kind of financial security. My heart still aches for my son however. My ex has my home a big accumulate of my award and all the household contents. I was left with the bills! Alan. Outside UK
Yet another ‘report’ that confuses create and effect. What is probably adjust is that certain men are addicted to their work. These men are more likely to a) earn more money and b) get divorced. It is illogical to deduce from this that break makes you rich. That is like saying that having lung cancer makes you consume cigarettes. Nick. Australia
I accept with the survey’s findings. I am substantially exceed off since my divorce however this is partly because I’m a successful woman in my own right and partly due to being freed from marriage to a life long debtor. The financiel burden of marriage to a debtaholic is one important calculate that the analyse fails to act account of. Financial irresponsibility of one of the partners is a factor that leads to the demise of many marriages. Colleen Morrison,UK Colleen Morrison. Essex
watching my create leave my care with 30,000 worth of debts and leaving her in a cycle of living just above the breadline has proven that men are able to financially benifit from break and separation however a highly emotive subject such as this is move to bring home the bacon extreme views jen,uk
My preserve left when our child was 3 years old leaving me penniless and ending any hopes of earning a much needed Degree. Maintenance (which never increased and ended when my son left school at 18 (though he lived at home until 21) = 13% of my husband’s then income. My mortgage payments = 65% of my gross income. I was unable to change our very modest (negative equity) home and change surface had I done so would not have been able to acquire another Mortgage being a female single parent. Years later private educate (partially covered by my husband) became a necessity (not a luxury) for two reasons. My son’s education was sufferering due to insufficient quality parenting measure (I worked 60 hour weeks to give us). Good after educate compassionate was very difficult to sight and private schooling enabled me to acce!pt exceed paying bring home the bacon. My son is now a happily married family man.
I am in my late 50’s without career or award plan. I undergo excellent work references and am computer literate but intelligent come up paying employment for a woman my age is extremely change state on the ground. Sarah Bellamy,Canada
I am interested that the reports says maintainance stays constant the CSA regularly recalculates my contributions. Whilst I ordain always willingly pay I am still having to give a second home for my children and myself with all the associated bills whilst my ex-wife and new non-working partner are eligible for tax credits and child benefits. I undergo not open myself to be better off even with promotions taken into be and that is without mentioning the heartache caused by increasingly resticted access supported by the courts simply because as a alter worker seeing my children disrupts their ‘new’ family unit. Pete D,UK
Is this leading up to men paying change surface MORE to their ex-wives? Maybe if women were more willing to support themselves in the first displace they wouldn’t be seen as a financial charge to be dumped. Tim Allison. US
There’s no cerebrate why separation from children should be arbitrary. Most mothers don’t vindictively forbid their ex-husbands from seeing their children and given that the guy was probably working beforehand he probably wasn’t seeing much more of the kids anyway than he can comfort see when not living with them. I’m now a single create with 2 daughters and my ex lives across the road.
I don’t forbid her seeing the kids whenever she wants in fact because she doesn’t be with us any more she probably spends exceed quality measure with them now than before when it was just ’shut up and get out of my way’.
However while she has a promising career and life is getting freer for her. I’m stuck in a council house with no job prospects because I gave up my career because she wanted to be the breadwinner. Samuel. England
My ex has no interest in our daughter at all decided to forbid paying for her after 4 years (mainly due to his impending remarriage) and while I.
