I think you’ve been very honest.
What are you worried about exactly?
Try to settle things amicably, but if you do have to go through the CSA (or whatever it’s called these days) just prove your salary with your payslips. They can’t take what you don;t have.
Always best to try and be civil and amicable for the sake of the children, and your…[Read more]

The amount of empathy anyone requires is entirely bespoke.
From your post, it sounds like what you need is to open really good communication channels with your Fiance.
Have you told her how you feel, really? Have you sat down with her and told her how it affects you?

The survey is about attitudes towards online behaviours, relationships, men and women, and defining sexual harassment.

Tried to add my details to the welcome Dad section, but won’t accept.
Do us guys know how much empathy a woman really requires or expects?
I don’t seem to offer enough, but get no time to myself, except when in my car going to and from work. When I get home I entertain the kids so my fiancée can finish dinner. Get them ready for bed…[Read more]

The thing that really breaks it though is money. If anything employers should be supporting their workforce. The government can give only so much which we understand. Shouldn’t the employer match it? After all you get holiday pay at same rate as a day of work which costs the employer. To the most part twice as someone would have to cover that shift.
