Question re: my brother

My brother's wife just left him. They have three children oldest being 12. Are there very many guys that post here? Will he feel welcome if I refer him here? He doesn't want the divorce and he's devastated. They have many financial problems and she wanted him to do better yet she only worked a part-time seasonal job and their oldest child is in third grade. When she is a SAHM she didn't do her fair share then. She's making him feel so bad for not measuring up. He loves his kids and want's them 1/2 the time. He's not a weekend dad for sure! Could I refer him here for support and advice?

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. He's in Michigan. She is in the process of moving out (may have finished today) and she has agreed to 50/50 for now after much persuasion. Neither of them have money but she may get help from her parents to start divorce.
