It seems weird for the breed but it can happen, if rarely.

We’ve been living together for two years. She is a single mom of a toddler. When we first moved in together the apartment was only in her name and she let me live with her. I was finishing dental assisting school and couldn’t qualify for an apartment on my own. I still paid half the rent and utilities. After graduating and getting a job I became an official added roommate to the lease last year.

The cruise industry is really loving bad all around. Please do not go on cruises.

🪗 WIBTA if I put a pronoun sticker (that isn't accurate for me) on my accordion case? 🪗quote:I always use she/her when I talk about my accordion; I prefer that other people do the same (though obviously this isn't something I enforce). I think it would be fun if I put a she/her sticker on her case. Which seems pretty harmless but also people might think that the sticker meant MY pronouns were she/her, since it's more common for people to use pronoun stickers for themselves than for inanimate objects. My pronouns are not she/her.

Cerekk posted:How the hell do you get seasick on a cruise ship. They're enormous and they have active stabilizers and they deliberately don't sail through rough water. There's a slight sway, even in calm water and with the stabilizers engaged. Especially if you're indoors, and in a room where you can't see the horizon, it can be enough to trigger motion sickness. And most of the cabins are interior ones. Plus, while cruise ships avoid known storm paths, the weather can shift quickly and even just trying to avoid the storms can require enough speed to make things very Boaty.

I have many cats. They go in the kitchen but they are not allowed on the counters. Nor are they allowed near the stove, or anywhere food is being prepped. Somehow despite having more than 2 cats, we don't get cat hair in our food. I did house/pet sit for a friend years ago and she had about 12 cats. She did not have a litter box or 10, she had two large kiddy pools half filled with cat poo poo and litter. The cats got all over her kitchen (ripped open a loaf of bread I brought over, and threw out after finding bite marks in the bread), the range could not be used because it was stuffed with cat hair.

quote:his mother, he is age 70 I'm sorry, I'm with mediaphage here. What. Was the child support for the OP's wife (since its her father)? Was it for a different kid? 16k in support is not something you can hide easily, if I understand??? And how on earth is a 90 year old woman paying for her (deadbeat father of a) son to fly all the way to loving Australia? A quick google suggests that's 1kUSD (edit: round trip, misread my open tab)? I might have misunderstood (again, quick, i dont need another rabbithole tonight), but. When his visa ends, wouldn't Australia deport him for being (for lack of a better term) in their country illegally? Or are they technically better than the US on that? If they did, what would happen when he arrived in South Africa? Why did his 90 year old mother spend a thousand dollars on a flight for him when he has that much unpaid child support?

And clearly has a good enough relationship with him to invite him to her wedding. But the money is presumably owed to the ex-wife, not to the adult kid.

The issue is the ex-wife of the deadbeat dad is being a stubborn hardarse about it. If she is the bride's mother, maybe it is because deadbeat was invited to the wedding and she wasn't/can't afford it. Or maybe it's for another kid that is unmentioned in the story, (which you'd assume the woman getting married in Australia would have known about). If the ex-wife from the story is not the brides mother, then that just brings up a whole worlds of other hosed up family dynamics. And I wouldn't have thought the Oz authorities would care too much about unpaid SA child support to stop him from leaving. Wouldn't that poo poo be brought up by the locals when he touched ground in Johannesburg?

I call bullshit on this one, the government's child support agency is loving useless at making deadbeat parents pay what they owe to the other parent, no way is this guy getting detained by airport security. What the Australian border force excels at is sending people back to where they came from the minute they look like they're going to be any kind of burden on government funded services.

Kurieg posted:lmfao what the gently caress Australia? You can't force a daughter to house the man who owes her more money than he's capable of paying. I imagine the assumption is mostly "got enough money for international travel, got enough money to pay back your child support" (and also, incidentally, "probably doesn't have a good enough relationship with their kid they owe the money over for them to be the one putting them up") System mostly seems to make sense for the intended use case, just not deadbeats who ALSO needed their presumably near-90 mother to pay for their plane ticket BrigadierSensible posted:The issue is the ex-wife of the deadbeat dad is being a stubborn hardarse about it. Or, perhaps, she's justifiably angry over the 16k of missed child support and being spiteful about it, which we would all be applauding if it wasn't screwing over the daughter that money was supposed to be going to in the first place.

BrigadierSensible posted:The issue is the ex-wife of the deadbeat dad is being a stubborn hardarse about it. No my take from reading the post was that dad is from SA but lived in Australia in the past during which time he married a woman and had a child, then moved back to SA and didn’t pay support. So the child support debt is in Australia, owed to Australians, not in SA owed to SAns. Upon returning to Australia the computers said HOLD THIS GUY DOWN UNTIL HE COUGHS UP THE DOUGH.

^^^^^ That makes sense. Deadbeat could have pissed off back to SA/divorced her mum when the bride was a little girl. The ex-wife kept contact details. Bride wants her dad at her wedding, so he mooches off his own mum to pay for the flight. Faces the consequences of unpaid child support when confronted by airport authorities. OP and his wife are partly the victims here, (her more than him). They have no responsibility to put him up in their spare room. gently caress him.
