My wife convinced me to bring in an 18-year-old Foster son. Within 3 months she slept with him. Got pregnant and tried to kill herself. When she came home from the hospital I was convinced she was brainwashed or coerced. She left again to go back with him since he was removed from the home. Am I legally responsible to keep supporting her. I’ve paid for everything. All the bills, phone cars. She was only responsible for the groceries. I am in Western New York. I want to cut her off of everything and she currently does not have a job. We do have a home together that no one stayed at for the past 2 weeks but she said she was planning on staying there cuz she’s tired of being a nomad.

STOP! Just don’t pay it. Fuck your credit score and hold the cash until you get a divorce and this mess ends
Consult an attorney and start the divorce. Document everything. Listen to an attorney before doing something dumb.
NAL but this is the time you need to pay for one and not rely on the internet. Find one now.
Immediately speak with a lawyer to start at minimum the legal separation If no divorce. Your attorney will advise you what you can expect in terms of split of finances.
18 years old, an adult, still in the foster system? Sounds like a mooch. Or like this story is contrived.
18 year olds are usually immediately booted from orphanages or foster cares i thought? Not informed at all on this but pretty sure 18 and foster care dont mix
