House bought before marriage and now divorce - what are the options?

It's not about money. It's about drawing a line. Why would anyone still want to cling financially to the house and the land register? I'll leave this question open.

Sad what one has to read here. I would also not care about the in-laws, but to mess up the house for one's own new start, the children have to see where they stand...

Anyone who thinks like that should please refrain from having children, it is better for everyone involved.

Who is writing that? Are you reading a different thread? So far I read: - She gets the house - New partner can move into the house - Children live in the house - He pays maintenance - He pays for the house That is an imbalance. And by the way, "neglecting" the house can also be seen as a joint new beginning. You can and must separate the material things. Why should the children see where they end up? Are they worse off if the ex + partner move into a different kind of property? Does the dad love the children less? Can they be with their dad less? Where is the real problem if you make a clean break.

Do you really believe that the decision to "keep the house" or not determines overall suitability as a parent? I find that to be a completely disproportionate judgment from a very narrow perspective.
