cricket Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 My hope is that this ruling will send the message to parents everywhere: Parents (not teachers, police officers, parole officers, pastors nor other adults in authority) are the ones responsible for the education of their children. Quote
nuff sed Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 I am not sure that we have the wole story here.........The kid lives with the mother, not the father..Why is should he be more responsible that the mother that she lives with? Quote

cricket Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 A parent's a parent--no matter how involved. Hence, he is equally responsible as the mother. Quote
CyberGuy Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 I am not sure that we have the wole story here.........The kid lives with the mother, not the father..Why is should he be more responsible that the mother that she lives with? What's more the kid is over 18 years old now. So what is the deal with that. The father should appeal that ruling. It will most likely be overturned. Problem with a six month sentence is that he will lose his job and no child support will be paid during that time. How is that supposed to help. Some judges are idiots. Quote Riverside CA
Dottie Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 If the dad's in jail, who is going to support the daughter and her little illegitimate child? I'm assuming that because she is living with her father, not the baby's father. Oh, yes, that's right, the neighbors near and far will be supporting her in the WIC program and welfare and medicaid, etc. Quote
Dottie Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 of course, if the daughter was home studying instead of out doing you-know-what, she would have passed the GED Quote
Woody Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 My hope is that this ruling will send the message to parents everywhere: Parents (not teachers, police officers, parole officers, pastors nor other adults in authority) are the ones responsible for the education of their children. The problem with that thought is that in this case .... the person is not a 'child' but an 18 year old adult. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won.
