This sounds like exactly no one else’s business.

It is pretty immature to mock your child's dreams and tell them they can't do it anymore 

Yeah, well. That’s an immature fucking dick move, isn’t it?

Agreed... telling your young child that their dreams are bullshit is incredibly immature.

Wow I disagree.

Absolutely. Telling a 12 year old who’s passionate about something that their “career” is fucking over is a very immature, fucking dick move.

Is it? Treat your kids like shit and see how they respond. 

Yah, nah.

Seems a little derivative of Death Cab for Cutie.

this doesn’t sound like “worrying” to me, it’s exactly what it was labeled in the article: mocking. really disgusting that so many people here don’t see a problem with a parent addressing their child this way, and even worse, believe that the mocked child owes part of their fortune to the mocking parent. 

Not really - sometimes cutting ties with abusive people is the most mature move available.

But if she’s bad, why should he share with her? I mean, I’d risk looking like a petulant toddler to avoid giving millions of dollars to a bad person, personally.

Well, anyway “Elvis Cadillac For Mommy” is the band name of the day.

All I can say in response to your thoughtless comment is that I’m glad for you that you grew up in a stable and loving environment.

Well, two out of three ain’t bad.

When I was a kid, I vowed to eat all the candy ever made and be the president of the world and to live in a house made of trampolines. 

Not really. If she didn’t support him, why should he support her?

Throwback to when the PT cruiser was classified as a light truck to get around fuel economy regulations, because the remainder of their fleet was so awful that they couldn’t get away with releasing a small car with such abysmal mileage.

Ok, but when are they going to fix how CAFE is calculated, where bigger cars are allowed worse mileage?

Being in a union worked out well for me and I’m very grateful. Being able to have a voice without repercussions is a good thing. However just like anything else there are bad apples. Solidarity forever.
