Depending on what state you live in some states are easier than others to represent yourself. I am a paralegal and have helped several people represent themselves in divorces with and without children involved.

Your sponsor has zero financial responsibility to you. The I-864 is a contract between the sponsor and the US government, not between the sponsor and you.

Your court appointed times. A court is going to look more favourable on a parent who is actually working to pay their way and self support than one who leeches. There's no need to get snarky and rud

The beneficiary is a party to the contract of the I864; this has been established through legal precedence.

There have been cases whereby the beneficiary has been successful in using the I864 for support. It is difficult and unusual, but it has happened, so cannot be ruled out as an impossibility.

The parents have no legal obligation to help you get a lawyer. Could you possibly all sit down reasonably and work this out (visitation, future support, etc.) then get a pro-bono lawyer to help you work out the details?

What benefits and why would they get in trouble?

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

I wouldn't suggest that, for it would be dishonest of you. Take issue with your wife and resolve it with her. Get a divorce, move on, be happy and let her be happy as well. Evil machinations quite often don't end up well.

You're young. Take charge of your life and move on.

I know tha if i go on public assistance they get in trouble.

If you go on public assistance, it will affect you when you want to apply for citizenship. I know someone from Canada, my own country, who went on public assistance and she was denied when N400 time came...You have a green card and you can legally WORK. So why don't you just WORK? Take 2 or 3 jobs and do like everyone does in America, work for your money.

For the love of God... :wow:
