Provide some "proposes to" headlines that don't say what is being proposed where the clear implication is not marriage. :hmm:

guess you never heard of a business proposal ?

you say clear implication while assumption would be a better word since a 10 year old can't marry anyone .

Some of y'all caught up on the wrong shit....If that child is emotionally his , that bond is stronger than DNA.
If its such a strong bond, then it should be up to him to pay if they break up... If he refuses to pay, then perhaps the bond is not as strong as you think it is...

I paid child support for one of mine so child support doesn't scare me and neither does somebody else\s horror story..
Never had to with mine, so I'll be damned if I do it for some other dude..
But if you do adapt it should be on you, not because you are pressured by some kid reading a not his mother wrote..

I don't have any step kids.

As far as her helping him write it so what ?

You parents never heelped you do your homework ?

Maybe he couldn't write his feelings and she just cleaned it up.

He's mother wrote/heavily coached him on that letter. What's the big deal? I don't know, maybe the posturing like the kid was making some grand gesture of love and appreciation for that cat on his own :dunno:

As a parent I refrain from coaching and guiding my daughter when she's writing her feelings. I buy a touching card, hand her a pen and say "write something nice for (insert person/occasion)" and that's that.

... Sorry bro, I have to side with the fam on this one. It seems like she realizes she's got a dummy on the line and decided to use the kid to do her dirty work :dunno: She put dude on the summer jam screen at her son's party, and for what? As if the kid , who just turned 10 mind you, really sits around thinking "man, I've been calling him Dad since I was 2-3 and it's not even official in the eyes of the law?"

Sounds like the same thing biological parents do......

pressured ?

So I guess you never told your kids NO...

If he adopts it will be his choice.....And he didn't start crying because he felt pressure.

We expect silly shit from 10 year olds-- What's your excuse?

If Bill Gates makes a business proposal to Paul Allen, the headline is not going to say "Bill Gates proposes to Paul Allen," you fucking moron.

Because the clear implication behind "he proposed" or "x proposed to y" without context is marriage.

I'm done with this conversation if you don't provide headlines, which you won't because they don't exist.

How do you know it's posturing and the child didn't say I wish Mack would adopt me so we can be a real family or some shit.

I doubt you could find a card that said would you make it official , you are already my dad and you already take care of me.

Step-parent child support is usually not an obligation for step-parents unless the step-parent adopts the child or has signed a Marital Settlement Agreement agreeing to pay child support to the other parent for the step-child. This is true even in states that have statutes requiring step-parent support during the marriage.

There is an exception, however. Depending upon the jurisdiction that the step-parent is in, the custodial parent may be successful in seeking child support from the step-parent under the Estoppel Doctrine.


The Estoppel Doctrine prevents a step-parent from taking a different position with regard to the child or reneging on a promise if the child would be financially harmed by the change.

Three conditions must be met in order for the doctrine to apply.

The first condition is Representation, which is illustrated when the step-parent assumes the role of the child's parent and provides financial support for the child.

The second condition is Detriment, which is demonstrated by a step-parent who hinders the child's relationship with the biological parent and severs the child’s ability to get financial support from that parent.

The third condition is Reliance, whereby the child relies upon the financial support of the step-parent. If a divorce occurs and all three conditions exist, the court may rule that the step-parent is responsible for step-parent child support.

1. I added to my post you quoted, you should read it.

2. That's what it appears to be to me. Are you trying to tell me you think a 10 year old sat around contemplating his parental status when, for as long as he can remember, this man has been in his life and with his mother? He calls him "Dad" not "Step-Dad", give me a fucking break, you want this to be something that it's not, He's FUCKING 10... well that was his 10th birthday party so he was 9.



THIS is authentic. Your video is not. THAT'S a person old enough to understand the situation, the implications and sentimental value of what was being asked, not some 10 year old kid. His mother probably saw the videos of kids doing that on youtube and got the bright idea to do it, but its just not genuine because the kid just isn't old enough to fucking understand it, especially not without the bullshit "You love Dad right? How you would feel if he adopted you, made it official that he was your dad? huh? that would make you happy, right?" coaching

I don't really give a fuck either way dude married a chick with a kid and chose to take that responsibilty ...

What he eats don't make me shit....

I am sure they all discussed it at some point with the kid...


And the age all kids are different and all of mine could have wrote their own shit at 9.....not saying all the grammar would be right

I don't say it couldn't be done, I said it wouldn't. I'd bet a good deal of coin that kid wasn't sitting around sad, depressed or stressed about his adoption status... shit, I'd go as far to say you can probably pull any adult off the street and 8 out of 10 of them would associate "adoption" with abandoned or neglected children in the system, NOT a kid living with his biological mother and he boyfriend/husband. I'm not sure what part about that you don't get or why you really want this to be some heartwarming moment the kid thought up.

And if we're keeping it a buck he's been in the kid's life since the age of 3 and is the only man that kid knows as his "father", he'd be paying child support anyway because it's in the best interest of the child :dunno: You think the court system was just going to let him walk away after playing daddy while renting his mama's pussy?
