There are also the Soetoro divorce papers of 1980 in which it is stated there are two children - one child over age 18 and therefore not requiring court consideration regarding support; the other a minor child who did require court consideration regarding support.

Something has been bugging me for a while. Since this is mentioned here, I will address it here.

If I've understood it correctly, there was another adopted child Lia, who died in the past couple years. I was never sure if she was adopted by Stanley Ann and Lolo while they were married.

If I recall correctly (and I might not!), the children weren't mentioned by name in the divorce papers.

Is there evidence that Stanley Ann and Lolo formally adopted Lia? How old was she at the time of the divorce? If she was formally adopted and Zero was not, could she possibly be the "one child over 18"?

(There are so many threads with so much information on these topics. I try to keep up, but it's impossible to read--or remember--it all. Apologies for going OT of the thread, but I didn't know where else to address this.)

From the link above. Another, incredibly odd data point.

“A photograph of Lia shows her holding a monkey doll and wearing clothes given her by Madelyn Dunham, Obama’s maternal grandmother, when Lia visited Hawaii for three months. The visit apparently was in 1971, the year Obama left Indonesia permanently.”

So....

In 1971 we have:

a) Obama starting school on the first day supposedly in late August or September.
b) Obama flying alone from Indonesia to Hawaii.
c) Obama and SAD/S flying together from Indonesia to Hawaii in mid-October.
d) Obama newly found step-sister ‘visiting for 3 months’ in 1971.

So far...nothing seems glue together. The story line acts as if Hawaii was an hours drive away from Indonesia. Not thousands of miles away on the other side of the international date line.

I think ‘step-sister’ was created to help with the Lolo / Stanley Ann divorce statement. The divorce does not specifically name the children. But it indicates 1 older than 18 and one less than 18. That would be Obama and Maya. Unless this ‘newly found’ step sister is claimed to the unnamed child over 18.

The Indonesia years remain problematic. And when you bring up Indonesia the Obots tend to get really annoyed.
