I enjoy a good conspiracy theory, I really do...but stuff like that is ridiculous.

Also the funniest shit is my friend lives with his mom and an area of the city that has a top 5 school in the state, everyone that lives over there has money...but kids can't go outside cause it's awful!

Just the other day, his kid scored really well on some pre ACT stuff.....he basically was trying to convince her that she didn't have to go far away to go to college. It's like dude you are the most overprotective fucker...he legit stunts his kids growth with the way he parents.
That's super sad :( poor kid. Hopefully he gets out and gets to college and can talk some sense into his parents, if that's even possible! Didn't work for us!

That's the daughter..she has social anxiety and honestly, I'm pretty sure he gave it to her. When shes at his house all she does is sit in her room by herself and has since she was like 5. If any of my kids have issues like that...I try to make them face it, in life you have to communicate with people.

His son is on the autism spectrum but he isn't like severely autistic, he speaks and he can have normal interaction like he doesn't flip out about being touched or anything like that. He's very mildly autistic, it basically manifests in that he comes off like a kids that is poorly behaved. Like throwing tantrums being 10 and acting more like he's 5...losing at a video game and throwing a controller at the screen..

Stuff like that but my friend parents him like he is an invalid that can't function. It's all I can do to not tell him, your son could grow up to live a normal life if you'd show him he can do things for himself. But then see overprotecting, world awful in his view...and he uses that kid for his own gain. He desperately does not want to work so he uses the kid as an excuse. I can't work cause I need to be here to get him to school, he can't be home by himself etc etc.

It's honestly really sad and all I can do to not say something...

He may be having some deteriorating mental issues. I would avoid the topics and deliver the pictures with a hug and some human companionship other then the TV. Talk about old times. But staying with him might not be good for your mental health.

Lots of times when someone gets sucked into the world of news propaganda they are basically lost to the abyss.

Does he want to leave the house?
You can explore options for him/with him -

if he wants to. Heck, it's FL, I'm sure he can get a ride to church (perhaps not ideal, in some respects - but socializing and getting out of the house......).

But he'd have to want to. And, that's probably that. :(

PE $14.50

Would really love to hit $20 so I can just take my son outside and let the fresh air hit him.

His mom decided to be as loud as possible this morning and wake the other three of us up at 5:45. She acts surprised that dragging her belt buckle up the hardwood stairs and past our bedrooms would wake everyone up and piss us all off.

My daughter told me that this summer she thinks her, her brother, and I should go stay at the cottage and leave her step mother here. lol

someone is showing me the money this morning!

I've done a couple of hits and upon refresh, my dashboard pending hits total is smaller by a few hundred so I think someone must be approving many of my pending his this morning and my earnings available to transfer should be updating to a higher dollar amount in a little while.
