I have a good job, make decent money and have a wife and three kids. The problem i am having is my wife is a compulsive shopper. I cant let her have any money or she spends it like crazy. We are three months behind in rent and are being threatened with eviction, three months behind on our car payment, and i have to hide from the repo guys. I am sick of this shit! I am loosing ground fast here and she isnt helping!

If she can't accept that then yes, it may be time to take the kids and leave her. Its like the two of you are in a boat and she keeps poking holes in it, while you're trying to plug up the holes. Its not going to work and eventually you'll sink unless you get on the same page. Unfortunately there are many marriages that end over this issue.
You know what you need to do. Take action. Go to support group meetings. Change the way you act, because you cannot change her. (Only she can do that.) Then gain the life you want to live, before it is too late.
Oh. What happened to my friend? Within a year after finding out that his wife had a compulsive problem, he got cancer, refused treatment, and died, leaving behind his young son to wonder, "what happened?"
