quotes[0] = "Problem solving is more important than worrying. When grief and fear are most overwhelming, work to solve problems. Sign up for a divorce recovery class. Take a trip. Assemble the homework your lawyer has given you. Have some fun. Read books about changes in life. Do something just for yourself. Talk to your priest, pastor, or rabbi. Sign up for an adult continuing education class about anything that interests you. Do something other than sitting and worrying. Anything.";
quotes[1] = "Get an answering machine and caller I.D. Do not wait for trouble. In certain circumstances, even consider getting call blocking. Technology can make life easier.";

Other than for the obvious medical reasons, there are also important legal reasons. If you test positive for any sexually transmitted disease, tell your lawyer immediately.";
quotes[3] = "Do not discuss your case with anyone unless you have permission first from your attorney. Anyone other than your attorney can be called as a witness and be compelled to testify about what you say.";
quotes[4] = "Do not discuss your problems with your children. Discussing your problems with your children cannot make you feel better. Certainly, the discussion will not make them feel better. Discuss your problems only with adults who can respond appropriately.";
quotes[5] = "If you move and change your address, be sure to notify everyone, especially the IRS. IRS Form 8822 must be used.";
quotes[6] = "If you are going through a divorce and you do not feel depressed, insecure, or uncertain, consider seeing a mental health professional. Something may be seriously wrong.

quotes[8] = "If you want a divorce, do not give your spouse grounds for divorce. While your divorce is pending, do not have sexual relations with anyone. Do not even date. Do not hurt your case by giving your spouse a stronger negotiating position.";
quotes[9] = "Tell your attorney what you suspect. Even if you do not know something for sure, it might be important.";
quotes[10] = "Always cooperate with your lawyer. Return requested documents in a timely fashion. Inform your lawyer of changes in address or telephone numbers immediately. If you do not cooperate, your lawyer could choose not to represent you.";
quotes[11] = "Write down questions for your attorney. Unless you do, you will forget to ask them.";
quotes[12] = "Do not ask a child to deliver messages to the other parent. This practice is more common than you might think. Once either parent starts using a child as a messenger, the result is always the same. The child will eventually believe that he or she is personally responsible for causing pain to one or both parents.";
quotes[13] = "Learn and read as much quality information as you possibly can about divorce and children coping with divorce. There are many great divorce books and classes discussing children coping with divorce. Learning one important concept that saves your child stress is worth your effort.";

quotes[17] = "Always write down every payment you make to or receive from your spouse for child support or alimony at the time of payment. Unless you do, you will never remember in court six months or six years later. Record the date, check number, amount, and any detail that might be important later on the same piece of paper every time. Copy the paper periodically in case you lose the paper.";
quotes[18] = "Never hide assets. Lawyers have seen this before and know where to look. If the court finds out that you have tried to lie about your assets, the outcome of the trial will almost assuredly be worse. Plus, your attorney will likely try to remove himself from your case because your lie can affect his credibility with the judge.";
quotes[19] = "Ask your lawyer about joint checking accounts before removing money. But do not wait too long, or it may all be gone.";
quotes[20] = "Consider canceling all joint credit card accounts. Do not wait for the next month's bill to learn your spouse has purchased new furniture, televisions, appliances, stereos, and a four-wheeler in your name and on your credit. Apply for new credit cards in your own name. This will build credit and provide you with necessary protection from unforeseen emergency expenses.";
quotes[21] = "Do not have sexual relations with your spouse during the divorce. This might eliminate your grounds for divorce.";

quotes[23] = "Call your attorney a couple of days before you are scheduled to go to court to make sure the court appearance is still scheduled for that day and double check the time you are supposed to be at the lawyer's office.

Deadlines are subject to change as laws and insurance policies changes. Certain forms may be required. Obtain them. If you have any questions, ask your attorney for assistance and advice.";
quotes[25] = "Beware of friends' and family members' advice. Every divorce is different. For example, do not be tempted into believing that your best friend's visitation schedule is exactly what you want. Some schedules must be strict and to the minute. Other parents work out agreements where, over time, one parent may feel comfortable enough to call and say, 'I just got free front row tickets to Sesame Street Live. Can I take Tim?' The best visitation schedule is the one that makes sense for the child.";
quotes[26] = "Spend as much time with your children as possible. Offer them your undivided attention.";
quotes[27] = "During your divorce, always seek independent tax advice from your tax professional. If you do not have CPA or tax lawyer, ask your divorce lawyer for a referral. Most divorce lawyers are not qualified to give tax advice and will tell you so. Tax law can change dramatically each year. Only qualified tax professionals study the yearly changes.";
quotes[28] = "Do not sign a joint tax return during the divorce without checking first with your lawyer. Your lawyer may want to discuss the matter with your CPA or obtain independent tax advice from a tax professional on your behalf. Signing a joint tax return can have any number of pitfalls. Years in the future, the I.R.S. may determine a deficiency exists. Even if you are no longer married, the I.R.S. may try to collect from both parties at the same time without regard to whom the deficiency is attributable.";
quotes[29] = "Do not record telephone conversations. Each state has different laws. The laws concerning taping conversations is remarkably vague and make no sense. Check with your lawyer before you do anything like this.";
