I've caught my husband cheating, several times. I think I am done with giving him chances. Is there a way I can get custody of my 2 kids if I am not working and he's the sole bred-winner? Please advise!

I am currently going thru a divorce bcoz my husband is having an affair. From my understanding, there is 1) custody and 2) care. Most cases that I know and heard are joint custody, where both parents have the authority to make decisions for the child. Unless your ex spouse doesn't want anything to do with his child, it is quite difficult to get sole custody. However, you can get 100% care for your kids. This is usually granted to however the kids are closest with. (Older kids have the choice to choose both parents) Of coz there are many things taken into consideration aside from finance. Do you have a place to live in? What about your working hours now that you have to start working to provide for your kids? Will there be anyone supervising your kids when you're at work? Do you have any other commitment that might take away your attention from your kids? Health issues? It's best to sort your life out as soon as possible so that you can have a better arguement in court.
