[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So Joe doesn't have a job and is complaining that he can't afford the CS the court would order?  Um, isn't that called voluntary impoverishment?[/quote]

Yea...wtf? Joe doesn't have a job? And it sounded like his only reason for not having a job was so that when Isaac is with him at his house, he isn't working but is spending time with his son instead. So does that mean that we should all just quit our jobs? Dude...get a job. And he has another kid on the way.

None of these damn people have jobs.  People in our grandparent's generation would never have dreamed of not getting jobs to support their families. What is wrong with so many younger people today? They feel entitled to NOT have a job.[/quote]

In defense of Jo:
-He had just moved three hours away from his previous employment.  With MTV money coming in, he has a little more financial freedom to move without having a job waiting for him.
-It's a reasonable conclusion that he doesn't want a 9-5 job because with Isaac's school over for the summer, he would be unavailable to spend time with him during the most of the day.

I agree work is a good thing, but the reality is that these people don't work because they don't have to.  In Jo's case, he has held a job during most of filming (including 16&P), and I don't think it's too out there to live off his savings for a while if he's able.  Jo's argument about child support is that Kail won't cough up any numbers about how much everything for Isaac costs and he doesn't trust her.  If I were him, I'd just go through the courts.

I'm sure there were plenty of people in our grandparents' generation who did not feel it necessary to work, either.  Young people today are just as foolish as young people long ago.[/quote]
