The answer

The questioner mentioned that the marital home was a gift from the husband to her and her children. This gift has been received and officially registered. If the husband wishes to revoke the gift after divorce, he is not entitled to do so, because the husband has waived his right to revoke the gift and no longer possesses it after waiving it. This is the preponderant opinion. Based on this, the husband is not entitled to revoke the gift of the home. The wife has the right to demand child support from him, and if he does not respond, the matter can be taken to court to compel him to pay the support.
