You are in a somewhat unique situation; however, the straight forward legal answer is that you should generally look at yourself as a business partner who lives with your partner. As to your children you can look at that as an unmarried person who lives with the children's other parent. Thus, consider partnership law in regards to your situation and you'll have a pretty good idea as to your legal rights. You really, really, need to spend an hour or two with a family law lawyer to get a clear idea and answer to your inquiry.
