Mother, daughter donate 80,000 'child support' pennies dumped outside home
wtvr ^

Posted on 06/09/2021 9:17:49 AM PDT by mylife

One Richmond family got a shocking delivery last month when 80,000 pennies were dumped on their front lawn. Now, they're using the money to help those in need.

"I just turned 18. When I was in the middle of class, my dad came by. He had rented a trailer," Avery Sanford, a Deep Run High School senior, said. "He pulled up in front of the house and turned the trailer on so it dumped out all the pennies on the grass and my mom came out and was like, 'What are you dumping in my yard?' She didn't know who it was until he shouted, 'It's your final child support payment."

The act had an impact on the teenager.

"It's not just my mom he's trying to embarrass, it's also me and my sister and it's upsetting that he didn't consider that before he did that," Sanford said.

Once the pennies were picked up, Sanford and her mom decided to turn a bad situation into a positive one.

Every penny of Avery's last child support payment will be donated to Safe Harbor, a domestic abuse center.

"Turning around and donating that money to moms and children in need, I feel like that really turns this situation into a positive. You can learn from it," Avery said.

ā€œ This is about child support, not alimonyā€ is what I wrote.

And I never said it was rage. That was someone else.

But you are so focused on winning a non existent argument on th internet you got confused.

Stop drinking. Go to bed.

No, you are just not bright enough to understand what you, yourself, said.

There’s never a reason for one person to hit another person (unless that person is defending his or her life from a physical attack).

Even if Person A is yelling in Person B’s face, calling Person B names, criticizing Person B, there’s no justification for Person B to strike Person A.

So defending the life of another person is out?

Or defending the life of another person. Thank you.

But, if someone is just insufferable, you find another way to deal with it.

Yes

Some Women use their talents to get what they want

Same as men plying gifts I guess

People end up repelled by what attracted them originally

Women are more cunning than men and manipulation is accepted since women can’t fight like men for stuff

Did that make sense

There are women who transcend this....I am no woman hater

But I’ve spent 63 years learning how they are ...I still relish them

Men want to be loved....emotional availability as much as carnal pleasure

Took me a while to figure that

I don’t think some girls ever learn that about men...

I liked your post

To: Tell It Right; Pelham; Secret Agent Man

This is not directed at you but I’ve grown beyond the need to qualify my observations and experiences when I wrote or so them

White Christians have been as browbeaten to do that same as southern women always say ā€œI’m sorry ā€œ for any minor infraction

I’ve trained myself to refrain from ā€œmen are just as badā€ or ā€œI’ve got black friendsā€

If one criticizes blacks or liberal Jews or Latino voting habits etc here then one must qualify it by saying something positive or relative that affirms or exonerates or makes it relative

When one slams white Christians in particular southerners....no one ever qualifies but hey Johnny Cash was cool or maybe Billy Graham was ok u know...

I recounted my experience with divorce and child support and community property and alimony which all things being equal most definitely is stacked against the man....no question

And most white divorced dads do in fact pay child support but the numbers of blacks and Latino dads who are behind or don’t pay is staggering to say the least...most black men are at least six months late and nearly one third pay nothing

So yes there is obviously another side ...and it’s the usual suspects

My comely Jewish divorce lawyer lady ....in Miami ...I liked her no secret I confess she defended me like a warrior

She used to say

Women who don’t need it get too much and those who need it most get very little

What children need as much or more is their dad in their life especially boys need dads ...even more critically

This is why the black race is destroying itself and to a degree the host nation

Legions of black boys with no road map and no love from dad

Child’s need to feel love of parent is natures strongest emotion

Worst failure in American culture and only getting worse and spreading

Rant off and why I don’t qualify anymore my opinions

thanks for the reply, good points to ponder from a guy who went through the gynocentric wringer known as “family” court

funny thing is that your honest warrior female lawyer makes her living off of families divorcing

none of the lawyers want it to stop

she just wants to win, luckily for you she didnt care if she took male or female clients

if she worked for your wife she would have cleaned your clock if you had an equal or lesser lawyer

your experience echoes the general norm for men, the documentary “Divorce Corp” ought to be mandatory viewing for every marriage-age man everywhere

So that’s two exceptions to your absolute rule.

How about defense of property? Your at a gas station and someone tries to take your car with your purse and Worley belongings inside.

Is it OK to hit him, or do you have to let the theft happen?

He could have just written a check for $800 and been done, but he decided to go to the trouble of getting 80,000 pennies from a bank. Loaded them in a trailer. Drove the trailer over to the ex’s house, and dumped them. Guy sounds super-immature.

No matter the circumstances of the divorce or the child support agreement, whether fair or unfair to him, what his daughter will always remember is that her father thought it more important to make a childish statement rather than just paying the final child support payment and perhaps now that she’s 18 and no longer getting support, trying to build a meaningful relationship with her. I think he probably burned that bridge.

"NOBODY needed to know this happened."

Exactly.
