I don’t know how these DV judgments typically work so I could be wrong, but if her ex has DV charges and 2 bankruptcies, why does he have primary custody of the kids? I don’t think she is telling the full story here.

This “Mama Bear” sounds like she’s leaving out a lot more to the story.

Hey everyone! Since i started following The Ramsey show I've been a member of this amazing society of investors for a while now, and I can't articulate how much it has transformed my life. We're not just here to earn money; we're here to uphold one another, grow collectively, and rejoice in every stride toward our financial aspirations.

So, he's horrible with money and I'm also suppose to believe he's been convicted of DV yet he still has FULL CUSTODY? Rare but possible. Or, she has some issues as well. Nevertheless, definitely smart to get life insurance. I feel for kids caught in between this mess.

Sarah is very smart to address this now. Too many people procrastinate or think they don't need it until they're old but you never know when you're gonna go. Car crash, serious illness, DV......could happen tomorrow. She might talk to a lawyer also about making her parents the guardian without waiting for him to hurt them and his parental rights severed. Dave was cautious to say much about the DV but being responsible for two young ones when you've already demonstrated impatience and disdain for a human being sounds risky to me. Once an abuser always an abuser I don't care how many therapy sessions you've had.

Literally, the most important choice you’ll ever make isn’t what activities you do in high school, what college you attend, or even where you buy a home. It’s who you make babies with. My guess is that there were red flags about this guy that she ignored. Now she’s a single mom with a completely unreliable BD and the mental scars of DV (obviously only on her word, I lean towards believing that happened). Her life is hard mode for at least another 13 years.

There is way a man has custody over a woman if the man has DV charges. This woman must be a mess

Courts don't nonchalantly grant full custody of children in a divorce situation. Common sense. 🙄

Not buying the DV allegations. Women always go there when they don't want to be honest about why they got divorced. It's rare custody goes to the father. She must really be messed up.

The amount of comments claiming she must be lying is exactly why so much DV goes unreported. It’s gross.

Two minutes in and I can't listen to her say "um" even one more time. I'm tapping out.

I was involved in a case where the dad was convicted on an interfamilial sex charge, and he still got to see his 8-year-old daughter unsupervised. The courts are nuts!!

Quick to take her word for everything.

Why did she choose to have children with such a bad guy. White knight Dave to the rescue.

I like this advice but I think that Dave should make this modification: don't make the trustee for a trust held for children someone who could have custody. My wife and I did this because we didn't even want the temptation to be there for a guardian to draw from the trust for their own purposes instead of for the children. We just had too many horror stories in our family where someone bad with money manipulated a situation to get money they shouldn't have.

I’m not an attorney but suggest you check with one in regards to pulling g his custody or at least having not being able to prevent you from moving.

There's something she's not disclosing.

She never said DV convictions, she said issues. There were some supervised visits so they were watching the kids carefully. The easiest custody is 50/50 if both agree and doesn’t sound like she fought for full custody. But maybe he has partial custody. Why did people jump on her??

There’s always a second side to the story. Don’t just assume and call the guy a bad guy.

She needs to keep herself in excellent health and exercise extreme caution to keep herself alive for these children.

I preordered John deloneys book and I still haven’t gotten it. I reached out a week ago and they told me it got lost or something in shipping so they’d send me another one. Still haven’t gotten it. Today is the 17th and the book was supposed to arrive on the 3rd. How do I overcome anxiety of not getting my anxiety book?

Dave you look smart man I recommend you stop blaming people just based on what you heard you still don’t know the whole story long story short I’m married I have two kids we all still together I was charged for domestic violence even if I was not done anything wrong my wife made story added things never happened lol any ways unfortunately in United States of America the government mostly defunds women which is good thing but not always

Sure I believe what she's saying about the Ex.

Thank goodness John DeSimpy didn't take the call.

What in the world is going on in this comment section? Y'all know nothing about this woman and are convinced she's lying about domestic violence? That's as bold of an accusation as accusing someone of domestic violence. And it's not like she contradicts herself, where you know she's lying.

The caller needs to work with an attorney on this, NOT an online form service. This is too important to take the gamble of that going work. Trusts and estates are what I practice as an attorney. I see problems with these cheap online options all the time. Just DON'T do it.

Good stuff!

Wow i know it happens but i know a few people with dv convictions and all of them either walked in on the woman cheating or it was self defense or just didnt happen i know it happens but its rare

Dave, you should have asked why he has custody. I think she left something out of the story as to why he has custody. It's called one side of the story.

This is also a John Delony situation cuz it deals with her mental health. I'm surprised he isn't also on this call as well.

For the father to have full custody, the mother has to be an absolute train wreck. The courts side HEAVILY with the mother when it comes to divorce custody. Something doesn't smell right with this call.

Dave is simping again, I want to hear the husband's side of the story.

Obviously they would go to the kids dave geeze 😂

Isn't the lack of financial education the average person suffers from absolutely disgusting? A grown woman who's never heard of a trust. They really do want us poor, dont they.

I know this sounds extreme, but hear me out.. Imagine if there were laws on the books that prohibited marriage and having children until you are "approved" by the law. Meaning, you have to provide similar documentation as getting a mortgage...2 years of W2s, 2 years tax returns, last 2 months of bank statements, etc etc. You would be approved once you show that you can support a marriage and raise children without ANY financial help from the government. Sounds crazy right?! But I guarantee that child poverty would literally end in less than 5 years from enacting it. Which in turn would either end or DRAMATICALLY reduce the murder rate, the homelessness rate, the mental health rate, the pollution rate, the unemployed rate, literally everything!

She didn't get the sarcasm

Why are you so quick to blame the guy?? Obviously her claim is dubious being that the court did not see fit to block the kids from being with their dad. Just arguing is considered “domestic violence” by some women now. Give me a break!!

I often wonder how there are likes when the video hasn't been posted long enough to be viewed yet... 🧐

She bred with him. He must have become a jerk overnight and there were noooo clues at all ever.

Tired of Dave's 10% mantra on the market....

✝️

The only thing worse than her lying about being a DV victim of the father is if she is telling the truth - because if she is telling the truth just think how horrible she must be.

Amazes me how people still think the show is fake Calls like these sound very real

I wouldn't be so quick to believe all women regarding DV issues.

Leaving money to a guy with dv sounds like we will see them on Nightline

Don't give him anything just give the trust to them at 21 in payments

Why are people immediately assuming that she is lying? What would she gain from that. Even if she was just separated from him due to relational issues, the same advice would probably be given.

With out any proof the simp takes her word but the ex got custody of the kids something doesn’t add up 😏

6:01 Wow the mask drops. I wouldn't be surprised if she fled the country with the kids.

Jesus please preserve this woman’s life until these children are at least 18

The trustee need to be no one else other than her parents if she passes away while the children are minor. Any other person can be influrnced by the ex-husband which may lead to major issues.

"I have a two part question." Oh dear we go 🙄

What a disturbing story.

There's more to this story than she is telling

I don't buy her DV allegations.

Doesn't add up. She must have done so BAD stuff if she did not get custody

He would be in jail and lose parental rights if it was domestic violence. She's just talking.

I don’t believe anything the caller said about domestic violence. I think she was and is the problem overall in this case. Her voice and tone says it all.

Boy, she knows how to pick them.

Something ain’t adding up here…

People say Dav has no heart. You could see and hear his heart break and get angry in this call over the hell this Mama has been threw. Lord we pray that these 2 young girls NEVER have to be placed in their fathers home. If he would hurt thier mom...he most likely with hurt them.

How is she going to afford to setup a trust?

Dave you really need to hear BOTH FREAKING SIDES FIRST!!!!! Stop siding with the woman all the Freaking time.... Damnnn Man!

The mother needs to be an absolute train wreck before courts will award custody to the father. We are NOT getting the full story.

I don't believe this woman further than I can throw her.

I don't believe it for a second. Women receive preferential treatment in family courts and there's almost NO way he would get custody if he was truly abusive. The court would not trust him with children. If he, a man and thus STATISTICALLY almost certain not to get custody, actually has custody, it almost certainly has to be something about her that is a threat to them. Nope, I think she's lying.

Interesting that they are putting the father down when somehow he, not she, has custody.

You've got to be hella toxic to be a woman and not get custody of your kids. Evidently the judge thougt the kids were in more danger with her than they with their "domestic abuse issues"- having father. Women like this make us all look bad so I will call it out.

Something doesn’t add up. I think, the woman is not being accountable and not telling the full story, lol.

So he, the abuser has custody of the children, she must have been a terrible mother
