Mesaj Divorce - no representation in the Turkish court

I am a foreign national living outside Turkey and my wife and 1 year old child are in Turkey. She has filed for divorce and custody. I don't intend to challenge the divorce. I am told that if I don't attend the hearing or even if I don't appoint a lawyer, it will be fine and she will get the divorce. Is this true?

After that, will the divorce papers be sent to me and do I have to sign finally accepting the divorce?

In the matter of child support, is this done at the same time as the divorce or is it another case to be filed by her?

Is she entitled to claim any other compensation from me in addition to child support? She was together with me for less than 6 months.
