I think that's pretty much covered by the 'what's mildly irritating you today' thread.

I'm getting to where I don't want to watch the news or read the papers. The constant, never-ending assault on the poorest and most vulnerable members of our society is depressing. False economy initiatives. Cruelty for the purpose of an ideological redrawing of the nation. Got halfway through reading an article about the changes in care provision for people with disabilities and had to stop reading. It just makes me want to smash shit up and that isn't a nice feeling.

Dana, you've got to stop reading news the about our Republican Party.
Stick to G.B., or Canada, or Greece, or Samoli, or the Vatican, or ...

Wasn't talking about your republican party. This is what is happening over here.

Yeah. But Nirvana's news made me rethink this thread. Sometimes it's What's Upsetting Me and Will Upset You Too.

Yes, I know...

Next time I'll add a :rolleyes:

I agree and we have almost 4 years left.

I learned my little Addie is in the hospital. Her mother didn't tell me, the "new daddy" told me. I have only seen Addie twice since mid December. The first time was when I was "allowed" to give Addie her Christmas presents from me & the kids, plus Sundae. The last time was at Chik-fil-a when I completed her mother's tax returns. Yes, that's right. In order to see my daughter, I had to do her mother's taxes.

My immune system is low, but I'm going to the hospital to see my baby tomorrow. If anybody tries to stop me by God, they are going to see an old panda turn into King Kong.

Good luck, Sarge. What ails her?

dehydration due to ????? her new daddy didn't know and her mother won't answer the phone

Don't do anything that can be used against you.

Ach damn, Sarge, that's a worry. Stay calm honey. And I hope your baby girl is fighting fit soon.

Damn Sarge, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Sarge. What Zen said ... but also, maybe some legal advice regarding your right to see Addie (not just in the hospital)? I don't know your situation but some advice couldn't be a bad idea. If there's a law school in your town, try the Family Law clinic. The final year students will put time and research into it and they're supervised by a faculty member.

in mississippi, a custody agreement violation cannot be addressed by law enforcement until the matter goes before a chancery court judge. in other words unless you can prove the child is in imminent danger, you must file a motion with the chancery clerk and wait to be put on the docket. however if i don't pay child support, all she has to do is call department of human services and they will take over and do everything for her! there are several legal precedents in mississippi where the mother knowingly and willfuly witheld visitations, yet the father was still required to pay child support.

let's face the facts, the bitch can get away with just about anything and i have to wait for my complaint to be put on a crowded court docket. for the initial custody, it only took 18+ months and cost well over $5,000 dollars. i'm screwed. i should have been castrated for ever hooking up with a girl who is 3 years younger than my son
