PRIMARY CAREGIVER’S FUTURE RETIREMENT SAVINGS

As already stated, when the primary caregiver parent goes from full-time to part-time employment or becomes unemployed, she is usually no longer eligible to participate in employer retirement programs. Looking down the road, you have an exhausted parent who has sacrificed everything for her disabled or special needs child. This parent has little or no income. She has an adult disabled child still living with her and dependent on her every day. She might not be receiving child support from the child’s other parent.

It is a grim reality—the vast majority of single parents with a disabled or special needs child in the household are in abject poverty within two years of the divorce. The courts don’t know this. Make sure you educate them, so they know the actual result of their decisions. Take care of your family. Both parents have to work together after the divorce to prevent the child and primary caregiver parent from falling into poverty.
