As Autism Network Singapore continues to grow in reputation and reach, it has become even more important to ensure that the supportive, accepting mission of the organization is not overshadowed. Autism Network Singapore functions to support the autistic community and empower them with all available resources, and that mission extends beyond providing awareness of the issues at hand. When a family goes through a split, especially when they have a member on the autism spectrum, it can become increasingly difficult to find the stability they need. While Autism Network Singapore will remain a viable point of support for them as the transition occurs, there remains the possibility that these families will find the assistance from local law enforcement and the legal system as well, which is where having knowledge of the laws regarding infidelity will come into play.
When one spouse unceremoniously breaks the family unit by having a sexual relationship outside of the marriage, what are the implications? Under Florida law, there are instances where this adultery can serve as grounds for divorce, though it can carry significant consequences in a divorce as well. If the spouse who engages in adultery gives away any marital assets as he or she commits adultery, the other spouse may petition the court to award the victimized spouse a portion of their separate property as compensation for the other spouse’s actions. Furthermore, if the spouse who engages in adultery has used marital funds to pay for her or his illicit affair, the victimized spouse may be allowed to seek compensation from the funds directly. By recognizing these laws before adultery occurs, families can know how to best respond while still ensuring that their children are taken care of in the meantime.
In addition, understanding the laws on adultery can help families ensure that any pre-nuptial agreements are carefully drafted, allowing for a fair split of assets no matter what ensues. The Florida courts give broad discretion for spousal support, due to the fact that there are many factors to consider, but by employing proactive planning, Autism Network Singapore can help families understand how to protect themselves and their children in the event of marital disruption. When one spouse strays from the marriage, it is not just the immediate repercussions of breaking the bond that can affect the family. Instead, there are many consequences that can occur both in the immediate and the long-term, affecting everyone involved in the situation.
When Autism Network Singapore’s members are faced with the likelihood that a family member may cheat, educate members on the law and provide them with the resources they need to make appropriate, planned choices. By ensuring that both spouses have a full awareness of the adultery laws in Florida and understanding of the legal process involved in a divorce, they can begin proactively planning for the most supportive environment in the wake of family disruption.
