But after half an hour of back-and-forth, primarily between the son, Michael Rotondo, and the judge, the judge had had enough: Rotondo would have to move out, the judge ruled. He also ordered adult protective services to investigate, expressing concern about what was going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they are smart enough to identify someone else to manage their affairs when that day comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a hell of job raising him... Now they need the State's help. They sound like real winners too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were smart they'd tell the state he beats them and he'd be out of there this afternoon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean nonsense waiting until the parents are asleep. Everything is out in open now, the parents probably watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, shame and embarrasment have been outlawed by the SJWs and PC overlords. Yesterday I was sent a survey of California voters; the very first question was "Which issues are most important to you?" and the first option was "Jobs that bring dignity and respect". That's right folks, we don't need jobs that produce economic value, or jobs that pay at a level commensurate with the value of their contribution, and we certainly don't need jobs that teach the value of hard work. We just need jobs that "bring dignity and respect". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many people simply want the easy way out or feel as though they are entitled. My father-in-law recently passed away. The guy fought in the Korean War on the front lines, lifted himself out of dire poverty through a bit of education and worked he his ass off into old age. He told my wife and me both, just before he died, that life is full of blessings but it is also very hard at times. His advice was to continue to push forward no matter how hard the circumstances are. Somehow today people fail to see the worth of that kind of advice and example. Too many want to believe that we can make things easy by taking some pills and relying on the hard work or ideas of others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just reaching to the masses more now. Gotta keep the masses in line. Does anybody really want to bust their azz till 70? Maybe father inlaw lived a long life, many don't. Labor breaks them. My father broke in on railroad right at end of the steam era. There used to be a old-timer that would shovel coal for 10 hours a day. He'd come in hunched over, and there he would be in same position all shift, shoveling coal. He would leave, walking hunched over the same way he started his shift. The old-timer would tell my father: "They don't make kids like they used to." My father would reply back: "Yeah, they don't make kids as stupid as they used to!"

EII - this is a very unfortunate and disrespectful comment to the people who have to work at hard physical jobs. The truth of the matter is that hard work involves a lot of different types of underlying activities. Sometimes people have no choice or can’t work beyond their circumstances. Good for those who can. Work ethic does not only apply to those who work physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's whats called character. It's who they are. They want to be productive. Do something. Part of the dna. I don't think labor breaks anyone. It builds them. Once you have no problem doing that. It will apply to everything you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterbluesky Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Our nug left for Virginia the week after his college graduation (6 years ago). My wife refuses to do anything to update his room..with the exception of doing the unslept in bedding once a month. Nobody has the balls to tell her she's looney,including me.
