When a relationship ends, one of the first and most emotional questions is who stays in the family home. It’s not just a legal issue. It’s about stability, children, finances, safety, and sometimes pride. Before you make a decision in the heat of the moment, pause. The choice can affect parenting arrangements, property division, and even how a court later understands what happened during the separation.
