<p>Say you and your ex-partner both have student loan debt. While you were together, they worked more while you were the day-to-day caregiver to your kids and reduced your employment hours. Inevitably, their student loan is all paid off. Yours...not so much. Then, when you separated, they refused to allow your student loan debt to be included in relationship property. It all seems incredibly unfair.
