I need some help. It's truly like we are fighting the divorce all over again. I would never do this, never. I need some support, to watch more money go down the drain to lawyers. My lawyer has served his new one with a 20 page document. It's so sad. I didn't want to do it, I begged not to. What a waste of money that should be going to our kids.

" MMary, first of all your story is not old! All of our stories have a different spin. I'm sorry that you had to draw up this document but I truly believe you're better off protecting yourself if need be. Don't think of it as a waste of money but as a means to an end and protecting yourself and your children. "

" Oh do I hear you, once the papers are signed you expect that they will do the right and legally binding thing. It is not easy to move on when you constantly have the other person changing the rules and screwing you. I will never understand howm the legal system lets them get away with not suppoting their children, I am not talking spousal support, I am talking child support! "

" It is hard to let things go when your major concern is for the welfare of your children.. Your heart is in the right place and it is good that you are able to accept the change. Sending along a hug for you of peace tonight.. It is so good that you do not waste precious time on things that you can not change.. Very smart of you.. Kimmee "
