[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a child of a failed marriage,so I do not expect her to have a bright future. Cautionary tale of what  happens to the children of divorce, and why not to have kids with irresponsible people. These kids do not have the security of a roof over their head if something goes wrong!

This person is being discussed as if she is a burden on these people's life. I hope she does not have the misfortune to read this forum and self harm herself. [/quote]

You think only "failed marriages" put limits on whether young adult children can live at home rent-free, without looking for a job, and without being in school? Really?[/quote]

Biological parents in intact marriages want their biological children to succeed.  They get their children the help and support needed - logistical, therapy, monetary, educational- to see that they launch. This is not common in broken families and 50% of American marriages end in divorce.

Some cultures do a better job of parenting than other cultures.  In my personal experience, White parents tend to be more money minded and less willing to inconvenience themselves for their adult children and vice versa.[/quote]

My child is not my biological child. So, we don’t want her to succeed.[/quote]
