[blparent] blindparent REparents just don't understand

And also remember that while this is true, we all will be curious and
wonder. Most of us just won't say that.

You don't have to explain or justify anything to us on this list that you
don't choose to.  Always remember that.

Child support, especially in this case is not worth the fuss as it was only
200 for 3 kids.  I have a buddy who is getting 187 just for one child!
Between my day job and my training business, I fair pretty well, at least
until they become teenagers and ask for more expensive stuff lol.

some times the child support isn't worth it believe it or not. and I agree
with kimson some times its just easier and natural to hussle rather than
chising child support from dead beat women who aren't going to pay it.
