I think I need to split from my husband following his affair as I just cannot forgive or forget and I am making myself ill.
The only reasons I can think of for staying are financial / just for the children.
I would probably have to give up one of my 2 jobs due to childcare issues.
So I'd be left with 11 hours a week (winter) and 17 hours a week (summer). I think in winter I could claim Income Support and in Summer Working Tax Credit. Not sure which works out best really as I noticed on Entitled To that when on IS the children would get free school meals & healthy start vouchers which all adds up.
My head is such a mess I don't know if I'm coming or going!
