IANC, I agree with Bart. From what you say, your marriage is essentially bankrupt, and your attempts to resurrect it are more likely to lead to further harm than good. It's not even a moral question any more, just a matter of survival. A marriage

good for you, dont take no for an answer. stand up for her and her rights. she is entitled to certain rights and accomodations when needed. hopefully she wont need the IEP but it always better to have and not need than need and not have.
