Wendy got her first divorce at 21 — not 19.

And hooked up with her second husband immediately, it sounds like. Not much "struggling single mother" time.

Nonetheless, you don't have "custody" of a 23-year-old, which her older daughter was at the time of the second divorce. (What complicated lives people have!) I suppose it's more like she said, "Sorry, get out of my life. Maybe you can live with your ex-stepfather."

over 18 but Wayne Slater in his article from which most of this is coming
from uses the following:
