In rare cases, the judge can award alimony. I believe the couple has to have been married something like 20 years with only one spouse working. This is for people like our parents that were one income families with one spouse of the work force for so long that it would be difficult at best to find a job for support. I know several women that thought they should stay at home with the kids, and then found out when they divorced that they couldn't get a job in anything other some minimum wage place which wouldn't even cover the light bill, much less food and rent. I try to warn all my friends now that are thinking about staying home with the kids. Not as big an issue right now with 4% unemployment, but its still hard to find work if you are over 50 and have been out of the workforce for 10 or more years. -- Aimless In the beginning was The Word, and The Word was Chocolate.
