"Caitlyn Ricci’s grandparents paid for the lawyer she used to sue their own son"

There comes a time when grandparents need to stand aside.

The judgement is immaterial. If I were the father, I would not pay a dime. What would the sentence be? A year? Fine. Just try to collect.

I wonder, is it too late for the parents to legally disown their daughter? Would they still be forced to pay?

Actually, this ruling opens up some interesting areas. Is it now legal to force one adult to pay for another adult's college education? Fine. I want to go back for my Master's Degree. I think Laz should pay. I'll sue him using this case as precedent.

This is the comment that got me.

“How would you have a relationship with your parents if they don’t want to contribute to college?” asked Angela Ricci, Caitlyn’s grandmother.”

I’ve met some of these Italian grandmothers, you leave thinking Rod Serling is going to step out of the next alley. Their logic is so convoluted it leaves you spinning. (Don’t bother - I AM Italian - some of them are wonderful beyond belief, and some of them are just crazy insane. We all know it. But most all of them can cook.)

My guess (and hope) is that this girl will fall victim to the mother’s curse, and when she grows up (which may be never) she will have a child EXACTLY LIKE HER, which everyone in an Italian family will talk about the justice of it FOREVER. (”Your cousin Caitlin, when you were a little girl...and I say, what goes around, comes around!!!”)
