Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The text specifically mentions "short-term spousal support of maintenance," which is a type of alimony known as rehabilitative alimony. This type of alimony is awarded to help the financially dependent spouse become self-supporting within a specific period of time. Therefore, option A is the correct answer. Option B refers to support for the children, which is not the same as spousal support. Option C refers to a general term for a right or benefit, which is not specific enough to be the correct answer. Option D is too vague, as there are different types of financial compensation that could be awarded in divorce cases.
