My step dad is screwing mom over! There has to be some way she gets help...right?

My step dad and my mom and step dad has finally split up and its the best thing that ever happened to our family. Now he's free has his on house and buying him a new car. However he doesn't pay childsupport and all the bills from the other house was in my moms name however when they were together he was suppose to pay them(but we found out he wasn't) So the light bill is like 1000 something because of the bad insulation in the old house and the gas is ever more. On top of that he put a lone on my mothers car and they both were to split the bill 200 each a month he stopped...well never started paying on it. So thats our only transportation, we live in town were we know no one and my mom jobs doesnt pay anything but like 150$ a week on a good day (public bus comp. part time). Can he really mess my mom over like this. She's also a lil sick she has diabeties type 2 and can't keep her blood sugar down these days can he really screw her over like this and go on living all good.

    He can do whatever the divorce court judge says he can do. He only owes child support if he has children with your mother; step children don't count. The debts that you mention are marital debts; they both owe them regardless of who was supposed to pay them. When two people marry, there is no more my money and your money; it's all our money. Everything is a joint debt. She needs to get the divorce started immediately, but she won't see any money for a long time.

    If she put things in just her name, she will need to pay them and get paid back when the divorce is final. Sorry, that's why you need to know who you're marrying before you say 'I do'.
