dads g/f wont give us his stuff

Careful_with_that_Axe

I don't think I have ever been so astounded at a post/thread and shocked and ashamed of the society that we appear to live in today if this is typical behaviour (not to mention literacy levels). I don't think the OP has once mentioned any sadness at their Dad passing and the comments about feeling "entitled" to whatever they feel should be theirs are quite simply nauseating.
Anyone who has even the remotest sense of common decency would be absolutely outraged at OP's comments.
A cliche I know, but what on earth is the world coming to? God help us all.

Well there could be some truth in her statement. Plenty of people in this country grow up in an amoral vacuum without any sense of right or wrong. You don't get to think like the OP without some extremely bad parenting quite frankly. I don't know how you intend to impress upon such a person a sense of basic human decency when clearly thus far in life they have had neither need for nor exposure to one. It's rather difficult for normal decent people to comprehend the 'Sharon Matthews'-type world such people populate. I cannot relate to any part of the OP's sordid world of children being taken into care, filming bodies, functional illiteracy, and general lack of moral compass on any level.

Evidently there's little incentive to not be scummy, and to maintain any kind of work ethic when the welfare state will provide.

I am sad about all this. I shudder to think what will happen to our beloved country in years to come if this really is a widespread state of affairs.

The 'functional illiteracy, which some interpreted as text-speak, came over to me like some kind of patois as might be spoken in New Orleans.

Yes, I can speak and write English, which chickadee noted. Do you know how that came about? I lived in a very poor home and was mainly brought up by my aunt, who was a polio survivor and lived most of her life sitting on the floor, from where she did everything. My mother was out at work cleaning other women's houses. My aunt used to read to me, the few books we had were read over and over again, and that was how I learned to read. Once I could read I was in a different world, that of the imagination, other peoples, other times. I absorbed my own language by reading anything and everything I could get my hands on. Even now, I have the type of mind that will read the back of a cereal packet if there's nothing else in sight. Reading and writing English was different from the dialect we spoke at home, but I never wrote in that dialect. My difficulties at school were related to figures, which didn't make sense to me in the way that words did. Words were a way out - an escape if you like.

OP,

I wasnt going to post anymore on this thread as others have been far more elequent than I could hope to be;)

HOWEVER,

I think you should realise that you do in fact owe a debt of gratitude to your Late Fathers Fiancee. When you asked him (or demanded) to look after your Baby Son he did this along with his Fiancee, she I am sure helped him bathe, feed, and nuture your baby son. She didnt have to she had no obligation to but she did, out of LOVE for your Father, to make him HAPPY. You should be forever grateful to this LADY. She made your Father happy AND looked after your Son as a baby.Then you go and make ANOTHER mistake and have another baby ( BTW where are the childrens fathers in all of this) and they then help you out yet again, assisting you in getting a home of your own for your little family. But oh no this isnt good enough is it:eek:

Maybe your Dad read this verse:
"FRIENDS ARE THE FAMILY WE CHOOSE FOR OURSELVES"

Because whichever way you want to look at it.

HIS FIANCEE WAS HIS FAMILY

Well said, Gillianh2. Good for you. I agree completely. I too know that verse: 'Friends are the family we choose for ourselves'.

I think ForDad is just a chav who should of learnt to keep her legs closed at 15.

wouldn't be surprised if the pc she is using was scammed off someone.

I don't think we could say how many times

you will not get a penny unless u pay his debts off (btw you still might have to pay your fathers debts as sometimes the debt is carried to the child) ha ha now that would be justice

Sorry, but that's not true. In England you don't inherit debt. Debt is paid out of the estate of the deceased. If there is nothing left, it is written off.

Cliches are cliches because they are true. Never feel bad for using one - they are society's way of telling the truth, en masse, so to speak.

i suppose it depends on what the company wants in their small print

Isn't it that the person inheriting either accepts the estate (i.e. including the debt, whether or not the estate has enough assets to cover it) or they don't, in which case if the estate doesn't cover it then the remaining debts are written off?

That would make you both correct

Errata

You know, whether the OP is genuine or a troll - I feel desparately sorry for them. Looks like they have serious problems with society and unless they get their head sorted out are going to live a very unhappy life.
