You need to file a written Answer with the Clerk of Court within 20 days and send a copy to your spouse or their attorney. In the Answer, you need to admit or deny the allegations made in the petition. At this point, you are not required to change anything.
Your best bet is to contact a family law attorney in your area to discuss your options, especially if there are going to be issues that will be in dispute.
