My son's present wife just 3 days ago informed him that she wants out of their marriage of three years. She says that 'she' wants to file for legal separation, that she doesn't want 'him' to do it. She says 'she' wants 'uncontested' custody of their 2 1/2 year old little boy. She says she wants my son to allow her to continue to reside in the marital home (which I myself own) for as long as it takes for her to save enough money at 'her' part time job, to rent her own apartment. She says 'she' wants 'no' responsibility toward 'any' household expenses while she is trying to save 'her' money, but wants 'him' to pay 'all' living costs out of 'his' pocket while she is still there. She says that 'she' wants to ultimately be the one to file for a divorce, not 'him' do it first or beat her to it. My son is contemplating giving her, her way because of the threats she has made of causing him as much trouble as possible (even if it means she, as well as her mother, teaming up and doing whatever lieing they need to do) and trying to cause him all the problems they can. And those two women are certainly good at that!!

Since the home belongs to "ME", and they pay no rent, "I" want 'her' out! As far as I'm concerned, 'her' mommy & daddy can help her find a place, provide her a loan, or whatever necessary.

But...I just really need some sound advice/strategy, to help my son with his best avenue of pursuit. And...is this business about "I want to be legally separated from you, but want to still live with you" thing, a common thing? And...how does my son (or I) get her out of 'my' house, and my son maintain 'his' living status there? Oh, and by the way...my son is the CP of his own two little boys from a previous marriage.

Really hoping for a lot of wisdom here!
