New york that if the child continues to college the father is obligated to pay child support until 25 if the child is not working.

I heard a news report that John McCain’s wealthy (18-years younger) wife Cindy had him sign a pre-nuptual agreement before they were married. I also understand that they still maintain seperate bank accounts and file seperate taxes. If Cindy McCain doesn’t trust John with her checkbook, why should we trust him with ours?

My boyfriend and I have been dating for about 4 months, so this is out first valentines day together. This valentines day I want to do something really special for him. He is the perfect boyfriend and is constantly suprising me with being incredibly sweet. He would do anything for me and i am completely in love with him. I dont want to get him something typical that involves no thought. He already has our night planned out but says its a "suprise" What can I do or get him this valentines day? Thanks for helping me out:) (also, he is 18 years old…If that helps)

I have a relaive.She has lived with a man for 18 years.They filed taxes as "married"the whole time.There are a lot of assets involved.Now,the relationship has busted.The house is in "his name"although she has bank records where she has been involved with the payments for the entire time.Now,the man is telling her she must leave,it is HIS house.So,how would the dissolution of a common law marriage work?I mean the division of assets.Should she see a divorce atty?They were never legally married.Anyone familiar with the law please help.Somehow,I am the "answer man"in the family as I know a lot of things…The law isn’t one of them.I’m thinking divorce atty,but am stuck on the fact that there was no marriage.18 years of building assets together though,seems she should be entitled to half?What to do?What is the first step?Thank you in advance

So I kind of know what I have to do, I just want to know if anyone else is in a similar situation. Our marital trouble started lasted year and has not improved. I don’t think I want to try to fix it. I am done. Anyways I have expressed my feelings, and he said "Ok guess I will start looking for an apartment." That said he seems to have amnesia and forgets the minute he wakes in the morning. I don’t want to be out right mean, for the sake of our daughter, but I want him out. I can’t stand him anymore. We are not romantic, we are just friends and in many ways always have been. Does anyone else have a spouse that likes to forget or ignore what is going on in the house?
I do not appreciate the implication that I am not a good mother because a month ago I asked if anyone else just wants to get a way once in a while. It is uncalled for. The answers to that question will show you that I am not the only one that wants to have some time to themselves once in a while. Would you rather your daughter be in an unhappy marriage for the next 18 years, and be miserable? I guess you would say yes for the sake of the dad uh? Nice.
Oh and thanks to the first answer. You have given me some things to think about. I appreciate your constructive critcism.

Okay i have been married for 3 years. I love my husband and we have a beautiful 10 month old daughter together. We both graduated from high school and i am continuing my education. I got married at 18 years old and now i feel like i missed out on something. I am only 21 but i feel like an old person. My husband wants to go out every once and a while and I feel like i am being a bad person if i every go out. I have only been away from my daughter for 3 nights since the day she was born and that was because i was in the hospital with pneumonia why do i feel so bad for wanting to be with her all the time and yet i want to go out but i am scared to let anyone care for her. And my werid guilty feelings are putting strain on me and my husbands relationship. He says i dont spend any time with him how do i balance out the wife/mother relationships.

P.S. I got married at 18 cause me and my husband had been dating 2 years and he was leaving for iraq.

What is my entitlement for child support in the Jamaican court of law if i were to divorce after my son turns 18 years. Also is there any entitlement for me after 11 years of marriage. We do not have any property that is jointly own. I met him with his properties.

I am 18 years old and my fifteen year old sister lives with my aunt who refuses to let me see her. All i want is visitation rights to my sister and i need to know how best to go about doing that.
