Dennis: Let's give our Thoughts on The Internet Biggest Headline The McDonald's Co Parent Problem
Dear Side Jawn:
tonight I was just in Lowe's (Home Improvement) and a child walks up to me and asks for help. I'm kind of shook.
He came right up to me and asked me for cash for food. This kid was about 10 years old. When I said I didn't have cash, he asked me if I had CashApp. I asked him where his parents were and he said they were "at the hotel". I asked him if he was alone and he said that he was with his sister. I asked him if he was in any kind of trouble and he said no. I told him that he should not be asking strangers for money because it wasn't safe. But what I'm really concerned about is why parents would be sending a 10 year old into a store to beg for money. What would you do if this happened to you? It's just not normal for parents to send their children to ask for money from strangers, is it?
I know that times are hard. I know that people are struggling. And it's about to get a whole lot worse for poor and struggling families.
Dear Side Jawn:
I am divorced and remarried. My exhusband has remarried as well. We have 1 child together. Both our families now are blended families. My ex-husband got a new job and the court sent me a letter saying there will be a hearing to increase the $69/month child support I was getting. My new husband and I are financially doing very well, and we really don't NEED an increase. So when I went to court, that's what I told the judge. But no, they were really trying to insist that they increase what I get!!! I have to tell them fifty eleven times we do not need it. I brought my new husband's affidavit and tax returns and everything. We are good with the $69 and if anything big comes up we discuss it and my ex contributes. That works for us and I don't see why the court was trying to insist on it. I think I'm right about this. Do I let them increase or do I keep it at $69 since I really don't need it? I think I'm going to keep it at $69. No need to try to punish him or anything.
