Wife's Residence After Divorce

Question
If the husband divorces his wife, is he obligated to provide her and their children with housing or is he not obligated?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: The waiting period after divorce ends her right to housing unless she has children in her custody, in which case the divorced husband must provide them with a residence where she can take care of her children. And God knows best.
