Kami pong mag-asawa ay nag t-trabaho sa mag kaibang bansa. May problema po sa amin pagsasama gawa ng puro away at bangayan na lang. Hindi po ako pumalya ng remittance sa mga anak ko simula ng ako'y mag abroad. Ako lang po ang inuubliga ng Ina ng mga anak ko sa gastusin ng mga bata ngayun napapabalitang meron syang lalake sa lugar na pinag t-trabahuhan nya. Maari ko po bang obligahin din sya sa gastusin ng mga bata dahil nasabi din po sa akin na sya ang gumagastos sa lalake? Maaare ko po ba siyang hanapan ng resibo buhat ng mag abroad sya kung saan nya dinanadala ang sahod nya. Sana po matulungan nyo ako sa bagay na ito.
Translation: My wife and I are working abroad, in different countries. Our relationship and marriage has problems, as we often fight, quarrel and there is rumpus. Nevertheless, I have not missed sending financial support/remittance to our children, ever since I worked abroad. The mother (my wife) obligates me to pay for the expenses of our children, and it seems as if she is not sharing in paying for expenses for the children. Can I obligate my ex-wife to pay for the expenses of our children, since I heard that she has another guy (working in the same company where she is also working), and she is spending for her lover/paramour? Can I demand that she show receipts showing where she is spending her salary while working abroad?
