“Is the twenty-something his child or step? And he has to cover whether he has employer insurance or not?”
The kids were hers by another man. I don’t know whether he adopted or any other details. This was before Obamacare and I’m sure they were on his work insurance. But as to now, I have no idea. The mutual friend has moved away so I’m no longer up to date.
But from listening to my work buddies who have had the misfortune of coming in front of a family judge, they tend to take into account the “welfare” of the “child” regardless of age or circumstances.
This guy apparently didn’t have a problem having these young people living with him, but he wanted them to get a job or help out around the house. Also, he didn’t want pot in the house. All of those things seem reasonable to me. But, not the judge.
I’m sure the judge would also think it was reasonable if a swat team busted in his house, found the twenty-something’s pot, and confiscated his assets.
