The business interests things makes more sense. I was baffled as to why they’d go to the trouble and expense of arguing something up to the state Supreme Court instead of just getting remarried.

I was about to get angry because im tired of people insulting love actually. But...This is your best work. It’s all our best selves. I’m going to assume you just finished a groundhogs day (but christmas) hundred day loop to write the best article of all time. So yay! Merry Christmas.

A Christmas Story sucks. Sorry, not trolling, it’s just the truth.

Nope. A Christmas Story. I saw it once. It was boring.

When they were married, he was def. less fun. He wanted the kids to help him wash the car and go to the pub he was part owner near home for lunch, and Madonna wanted to like, fill their pool with Evian. He wanted a more normal, middle-class-ish life, and she wanted Super Extravagant Rich Jerk life. Apparently that is

He is 15, though. No matter which way around, it seems like the judge should listen to him. Kids under 10 don’t know better, but I’d say after 10 they should be heard.

Umm, Guy Ritichie has a ne tworth of nearly 100 million dollars. I’m sure Rocco will be fine no matter who he lives with.

It’s not hard to understand his problem. Would you want to spend that much of your time on the road? I wouldn’t. He wants to be with the parent who has a more stable and normal home life. Lets not shit on the kid for wanting to go to school and sleep in the same bed every night.

Not if the father was a person famous for being a self-involved thirsty jerk who doesn’t seem to care about other people and the kid has spent the past few months following the aforementioned sled-involved thirsty parent on tour. For example, Tom Cruise. Very few people seem to support any bid he may have for custody

My ex kept nagging me to force our daughter to visit him, when she was a teenager. Threatened to sic CPS on me and everything if I didn’t “enforce the visitation agreement.” I said sure, I could force her ... but in a year and a half she’ll turn 18, and then where are you going to be?

Just do what’s best for the kid. I bet what’s best is not being shuttled around on tour.

Or maybe less fun? But more stable.

I am reminded of a case, years back, in which a very wealthy couple used their children as pawns in a divorce battle (if I have any lacunae in my memory of this, I am sure some J-belles will let me know); and the judge was finally so tired of their shenanigans that she ‘awarded’ the house to the children, and ordered

I don’t understand how she doesn’t get that she’s trying to win the battle to lose the war. If she legally obligated this kid to spend Christmas with her, what are the chances he’ll ever spend one with her after he’s 18?

He’s fifteen. I think he’s old enough to decide which parent he wants to live with. Can’t they come to an understanding where Rocco can start living in London and maybe going to school there but he would agree to go see his mother during the summer and during breaks?

This made me tear up a bit. I like you.

Mom would pack me two sandwiches. I was a heavy kid and it would embarrass me to have to pull my lunch out and there’s two sandwiches and two juices but my friend whose folks were Mormon with several underage children all raising each other couldn’t afford to feed them all. She would always sit next to me and pull out

Literally throwing away good food in a way that intentionally shames children is completely unreasonable.

As a kid who often got their only meal at school...i hate watching food go in the trash.

So, here’s a crazy idea: when a kid reaches a certain amount of lunch debt, a social worker or school administrator reaches out to the kid’s family to try to find out why: is the kid going to school with lunch money every day and getting it taken on the way to school? Are they just spending it on chips in the morning?
