Trouble playing split screen with my son

I recently got Minecraft for the switch (we play on Switch 2) and my son wants to play split-screen with me.

We succeeded once. However, after linking my microsoft account I no longer seem able to play.

I have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription active on my account only. It is not active for my son's profile.

The game tells us to play local we need to "disable multiplayer" in the settings; however, when I go to the settings tab I can't even navigate to multiplayer for some reason.

Any ideas? I tried logging out of the Microsoft account but it. did not have an effect. I even tried with the Mario skins which should disable online multiplayer outright, but got the same message. (The only time we cooped was in the Mario mashup)

Wife went missing with my car, I got a speeding ticket in the mail.

Location: New Jersey

(Location of the offense: Alabama)

I've posted here before about my wife being missing for about two months and not being able to contact her. (I am taking the advice there and highly appreciative.)

However, I just got a camera speeding violation in the mail. She has been traveling through various states in a car that i own and is registered to me. She did not inform me of her travel, and is not in communication with anyone in the family. To be frank, I do not agree with the car even being used in this way. She is on my car insurance though.

My questions are:

  1. Am I responsible for this fine? Does that answer change if we enter a divorce action?

  2. Would it be in my best interest to just pay the fine or should I try to dispute it?

Thank you in advance!

Wife left and went off the grid, we have two small kids

Location: New Jersey

It has been an awful few years with my wife consistently leaning into religious delusions; she believes me, our six-year-old son, and others are casting spells and witchcraft on her.

At home she barely spends time with the kids, instead focusing on religious rituals. Two months ago she went out "for coffee" and never came back.

She was reported as a missing person and found in another state. Last week I got a package from her with no return address; it had the baby's jackets and their birth certificates in it. The postal zip code was from yet another state. She's kept her phone off for two months, and does not contact any other friends or family.

So... what can I do? She's clearly severely mentally ill but no matter how often the police got involved she was never evaluated.

I want to take custody of the kids. I am worried she might suddenly reappear and snatch one or both children. I am the only provider for them, and I have always been the only one to take them to school, I cook their meals, etc.

Can I pursue custody without a divorce? Is it a bad idea? What would happen if the court cannot reach her? What should I do if she suddenly reappears after I start the process?
