    Maternal gparents served me(parent) court order, while out of town, to the paternal gparents home

    Years ago, we found out my husband lost a collections case by default because he was unaware that he even had a court date. When he spoke to the court clerk's office and told them that he hadn't even received the notice so couldn't appear because he didn't know about the court date (or even the...

    Bank will Not Close my Account

    I've worked in a bank for many years. If your mother paid the $9.99 fee which caused the overdraft on the account, it shouldn't affect anyone's credit, as long as the account doesn't continue to be overdrawn. The fact that they haven't managed to actually close your account is another question...

    Resigned without say

    If they were letting you go, it wouldn't be considered a resignation. Resignation is voluntary. Speak to your manager about it.

    Custudy help

    I agree with you there! My ex and I divorced when my kids were one and four years old. During the next 19 years, I raised my kids and established my career. I went on very casual dates with a couple of different guys, but I'd had so much relationship drama with my ex-husband I just felt that it...

    Storage unit caught on fire

    I have rented a storage unit before, and I'm sure there was something in the agreement that included a disclaimer of liability. I remember the manager explaining it to me when I signed the agreement. There was also something in the agreement that stated that they couldn't just go into the unit...

    stolen cell phone?

    Seeing a phone you thought was "misplaced" and then taking it is not "doing what anyone else would have done". Plenty of people I know, including myself, have found lost cell phones in places of business and instead of just walking off with them, they've turned them in to an employee of the...

    Surname Change: From Father to Mother

    I agree that this potential name change is more for you than for the sake of your son. His identity doesn't come from the surname he uses, but rather from who he is, who he grows up to be, and how you raise him and treat the issue of his absent father. My son never knew his father. He left when...

    Please help I’m scared

    FWIW, when I think about all the acronyms we have now that we didn't even 10 years ago, I have to LMAO. OMG, my DH & I were talking the other day about my DS & DIL, when I got an important phone call. I told him I'd BRB, but then the caller hung up so I said NVM. BTW, DH then sent me a video...

    Shoplifting, Larceny, Robbery, Theft Shoplifting

    I have to agree with you...not too long ago I was at the grocery store and as I was putting my cart in the cart return outside, I picked up my purse out of the child seat and noticed a container of blueberries under it. I checked my receipt to make sure that it hadn't been scanned, and then took...

    How do we pay someone who works from home during maternity leave

    We have dealt with this in the past with a couple of employees. Whatever time they turned in as time worked was not counted as FMLA time. Because of the intense scrutiny applied to banks as far as information security is concerned, if an employee is allowed to work from home, it must be done...

    Mental Health #12 - or so

    I've started planning for my retirement...which I'm hoping to do in 2022. I know that's four years away, but I decided it would be a good idea to start working on some succession planning for my department. Part of me keeps thinking I'm way too young to be thinking about retirement and the other...

    Sex Crimes, Sex Offenders Floridians keeping it in the family, so to speak.

    Her bio mom didn't pose with them at the wedding, it was actually her grandmother...her father/husband's mom. In the original article I read, when they were arrested in January, bio mom told about how horrified she was when she found out about it, through reading her younger daughter's journal...

    Consumer Fraud Another internet email scam.....

    This scam has been around so long, I'm surprised archeologists haven't found cave drawings of it! :)

    Sex Crimes, Sex Offenders Floridians keeping it in the family, so to speak.

    I read that story the other day, too. It sounds like when she grew up, the girl sought out her biological parents and that's when they got together. Her bio mom said that the dad insisted in sleeping in the girl's room when she moved in with them, but apparently she didn't really figure it out...

    Child Abuse, Molestation, Porn Solicitation of minor / dating app scam ??

    Your story is virtually identical to one we had on here not too long ago, only in that one the "underage victim" was female. And yes, it is a scam, and from the sounds of it, it's becoming increasingly common.

    What is wrong with parents today?

    Well, that was the first time I've done that...I don't know what key I hit but it automatically posted this before I even had a chance to proofread it! Anyway, to finish my thought, it doesn't mean that everybody you ever meet is going to automatically adore you - or even like you.

    What is wrong with parents today?

    I fully agree. I'm a baby boomer myself and I've often said that over the years. I was a very young mom, and a single mother from the time my youngest was 6 months old, but I still knew that how I parented my kids was the most important job I'd ever do. I was never their "friend", it was...

    Grandparents inherit land from uncle

    People use some weird wording when they write their own wills, it seems, like the "share and share alike". I knew somebody who put in his will that he was "of sound body, mind and soul". I've never figured out how the state of your soul would enter into the equation legally, no matter what you...

    Queation

    So what I'm gathering is this: OP allowed someone to use their banking information to pay some bills, presumably online using bank account information or by use of a debit card. The bank had put a hold on the account for some reason (that part wasn't totally clear to me). OP apparently knew...
