I am getting separated from my husband. We owe one car only, he is moving out do you think is a bad

idea for him to continue dropping me and picking me up from work? should I cut contact with him? I still have to see him since we have a son together but I am not sure if its right.

Why do you wanna separate from him? why always the kids pay the price...if it just can work between you and him for the sake of your kid...and by the way, there is something that i don't understand which is: why would someone ever get married if he/she will divorce later...it's marriage, it deserves other chances and forgiveness...i don't know why you wanna separate, but you better think of your kid before you think about the stupid car!

If you're both amicable enough to car pool with then I'd say it's okay.

However, you are right about breaking away from him... it's true -- you must stand on your own and in short order, figure out another way to get to work.

You can still remain amicable without carpooling together.

That's up to you. Are you civil enough to do this? Is there any chance that he could just one day stop or not pick you up leaving you in the lurch? If so, it's time to seek out other means of transportation for yourself so you can be responsible for yourself.

Bad idea, get your own car. He might be willing to do this now in hopes that if he is a good boy then maybe you guys will get back together. However, when things turn really sour he might just say screw you and leave without transportation. Besides, if you are wanting to cut the ties then cut all ties except for the kids.

Until you have another solution then why not? what else you going to do?

If your plan is to leave him then cut the ties that is still bonding you. This arrangement can be good and bad. It sends mixed signals to the child. It sends mixed to each other for a possible reconnection. It may even interfere with the two of you moving on with your lives without each other. It is really a matter of convenience for whom to get the car out right and for whom to seek another way of transportation.

If it works for both of you why not. At least until you get a car.

If you are both in good terms and he agrees I guess it would be ok. Otherwise the car should be sold and share whatever is made.
