No problem on the phrasing.

I've seen things like what you describe where the parent was using the child support in that manner. Becomes a real problem when the kid leaves home. Always interesting when the one paying child support stops the payment to the ex and starts giving it to the kid (because they are going to college). Suddenly the kid sees who's really helping and who isn't.

Child support would happen if you lived with one parent and the other parent pays.

Alimony (as far as I know) has nothing to do with having a kid there or not.

So I’m not sure why her alimony would change if you move out. It would change if she got remarried.

Alimony, also known as spousal support or spousal maintenance, is a court-ordered financial payment made from one spouse to another during or after a divorce. Its purpose is to help the recipient maintain a similar standard of living to what they had during the marriage. The amount and duration of alimony are determined by a judge based on various factors, including the length of the marriage, the financial circumstances of both spouses, and their ability to support themselves (this paragraph copied from Google).

Tell your mom you and her need to go to a therapist. Maybe a therapist can help to figure out how to move forward. Then tell your dad the same thing.

Maybe some of what was going on behind the scene will come out.

No one on lemmy will be able to give you a good idea of what to do or how to move forward.

I mean, look at what everybody is saying. Really read it. They’re all basically saying, make a decision without all the knowledge. There might one or two are saying something else, but I may have missed them.

Some are saying go live with your mom well that’s making a decision. That’s picking a side. Some are saying stay with your dad. It isn’t between you and your dad , it’s between your dad and your mom. But again that’s making a decision without all the knowledge.

Social media will give you a reactionary view in general. A therapist will sit you down and ask questions of not only you but also your mom and your dad. Then you have a better idea of what is going on. You may not have all the picture but at least you have an idea.

Actual cry? No.

Exactly I remember certain people who worked in his administration, who, after the fact said, I can’t even get hired anywhere. Why would anybody else sign up?

Even if I agreed with everything that Orange baboon said, I still would never work with or for him. The damage to my career would be incalculable. Might as well go flip burgers after that

The question was about what I use daily.

The oldest thing I own is an end table from late 70s. Don’t use it very often though

Fair enough

First : sorry you are going through this.

Second : yes most guys won't get the support they need. It sucks.

Third : yes you have shitty people around you

The people who you thought were your friends aren't. Forget about them. Forget they exist. They aren't worth your time.

Figure out what you like to do and join a club or group and move forward. Not just get over it. In that new group look for support there. Look for better friends there.

I know people at 40 that look like they are 20 and people that are 25 that look 45. So yeah it is possible.

Beat me to it.

Someone didn’t see that coming

These responses are as varied as you can get

As others have said. No you shouldn't be charged with a hate crime. You didn't know they were gay.

But let's be honest when do facts like that matter when it comes to prosecutors that just want a win in the court room. So they might just charge you with the hate crime and destroy your name publicly. Then ask if you'd like a plea deal before it goes further.

Or maybe it's a hypothetical question

Drop?

Drop it onto a chair (soft lazy boy style chair) a couple times a week.

Drop it in a floor or ground? 2 times a year. Maybe less.

It’s like most technology today. You just randomly keep pressing buttons until something happens, then memorize what you did to get there. There really is logic in most of it.
