I read where the parents of the girl-friend she had been staying at paid for her lawyer.

If some bleeding-heart liberal paid for my 18 yr old daughter to sue me after she left my house and still wanted me to pay her bills, there'd be hell to pay.

The friend’s father that is paying for the lawyer to sue gave as his reason, “her parents should pay because they can afford it”.

Need one read any further??

She looks like an insufferable bitch with the typical liberal "you owe me" attitude. I wonder how her parents feel now about the coddling they gave her growing up. Children who act like her have been raised that way.

She has no handle at all on honoring her father and mother. I can’t remember if it’s the 4th or the 5th commandment. Amazing that the Catholic school in question hasn’t expelled her!

I'm guessing, "opening an entire case of cans of whoop-ass" is somewhere on that list...

It isn’t over yet.

Attorney’s are trying to open up a new line of work.

Children suing their married parents for support for college.

If her parents divorce, they can already take the dad for support.
