388. the 10yo, i would be fine.
 
and yeah, trust. but she learned to trust something else- that when i tell her i aint messin, i aint messin. hopefully, that and the cops on her porch will get her attention.

there is help out there for her. cops here are well trained.

Whoa....

413. i can't believe how you can be so clueless , are you even reading the responses ?
 
there was no reason to call the cops on her. YOU are the one who is in the wrong here.

385. This is by far the creepiest and wrong post I have seen in a long time
 
Those children need to stay with their mother who is probably struggling to do the right thing as by as much as she can, and you want to throw these kids to the hell that is the foster care system?

Also, depending on the state, but most states use the rule that if there is someone 10 years or older in the home, they are considered capable of caring for those younger than them who reside in the home.

Who the hell made you the person in charge of this family? And, instead of trying to break them up, why are you not finding a way to help them, if you think they need assistance?

And, the person who said that the mother is obviously irresponsible (that would be CaliforniaPeggy who said that right at the start), obviously has no heart about the family, the kids, and absolutely no grasp of what it's like to be a single mom doing the most she can.
Live in absolute need and struggle, and then speak to what this single mom is doing to raise her family. Unless you have seen it, experienced, you know nothing about living on the edge of being homeless with kids.

Also, mopinko, you really need to learn how to write.

Take THAT, CalPig, and Mo!!! I can't believe a blatant callout didn't get hidden. Lol.

441. first of all, this 2 flat is the mainstay of my retirement
 
and my own kid lives up stairs.
if something even happened.....
so, it is my business, this was explained when they moved in.
and honestly, i welcomed them as members of the family, and they were happy to hear that.

the kids have been told, repeatedly, that if they ever need anything i am right there. i hope they would be able to take advantage of that, but knowing these kids, they would never get out of a fire alone.
but they have no phone in the house.


i have some legal liability here, if anything ever happened. not that this had anything to do with what i did, but it is the truth.

and really, i think i said pretty clearly in the op that i tried to get some help for her. i also got a bawling out from the alderman for not having prevented this in my lease. and for putting up with a lot of other shit that has gone on. landlords in chicago, actually, legally, have a LOT of responsibility for illegal behavior on their properties.
obviously a year long story doesnt make it into an op.

411. The Landlord
 
This is like looking at a poorly done cubist portrait. A nose is over there, is that an arm, where is the other eye. This story is all over the place. The kid goes to school, then he doesn't, then he goes in the morning. The police came and "bawled her out but left the kids. I have no desire to see her lose her kids." "She is short, but she also makes dumb decisions." Appointments are hard. My brain is coming apart. This short story does not end well. Final sentence: "From the locked closet door came a faint scratching and a tiny voice pleading, "Grandma ... please, Grandma, I promise I want to hang out with you in the garden, I'll be good ... I won't watch public television ever again, I swear ... Grandma?"

 

We didn't have a smiley laughing hard enough for me to post, so I went with those 3. This is excellent.

457. That's what this is about.
 
She's pissed that the rent & gas bill aren't being paid on time. If she doesn't get the money on time, she wants them out, except for the 5 year old boy she is obsessed with. All the carrying on about him while the 10 year old is an afterthought is very revealing. She wants mom & brother out of the picture so he can stay with "grandmother". 

When people ask her why she is meddling in other people's lives, she reveals more details of her meddling as proof that she's doing the right thing. She really has no idea how weird all of this is, IMO.

The OP is among the saddest and most disturbing I've read on any forum.

495. She gonna stay there now with you doing this to her?
 
You now have NO reason to evict her.

Seems a bit simpler and less time consuming that way, no?

510. I'm not going to pile on here.
 
It's shameful that the father(s) of these two kids isn't helping more, if that's possible and/or appropriate.

Uh....what are you implying, flvegan??

[franksolich]

Okay, that's it.

I've had it with the primitives.

Big Mo is a primitive of the highest order, a primitive of prominence, a primitive who's been around since God was a boy, a primitive with a long and established track record of true primitivity.

There's very few primitives of as high a calibre as Big Mo.

And here we got all of the other primitives hating on her; second-rate, third-rate, fourth-rate, fifth-rate primitives, nearly all of them primitives of no prominence, nearly all of them part of that faceless lynch-mob, the nonentity lumpenunterprimitiven.

They aren't good enough to shine Big Mo's boots, much less criticize and condemn her.

I don't agree with Big Mo on this issue, but that's not what I'm looking at.

What I'm looking at is a lack of respect for one of the top primitives on Skins's island, by primitives much less than Big Mo is.

From here on out, any primitive who is less than adoring of Big Mo goes on franksolich's shit list, until they learn to respect one of their betters.

[Big Dog]

You write for Reader's Digest, don't you?

I used to, but then I had a falling out with the editor over adverbs.

Big Dog- staunchly pro-adverb.
Editor- adverbophobe.

[obumazombie]

I was somewhat shocked to see the DUmmies pull out the race card on each other. It was so smooth it was almost seamless. The have had a lot of practice pulling it on conservatives.

[franksolich]

You know, Big Mo has just got to tell her riff-raff detractors to **** off.

She counts; the rabble doesn't.

Besides, Big Mo's got something of greater concern that needs tended to, although she's probably not aware of it yet, as it hasn't been posted on Skins's island.

As you know, Big Mo's a bosom buddy of Skippy, the NYC_SKP primitive, even though they live 1500 miles apart.  And as you know, Skippy's had some, uh, problems with his head, and was already in the hospital one time to have his brain stapled.

He went into the hospital again earlier this week, and now it looks as if the hospital expected him to stay a while, he got all impatient and self-discharged himself.

(To lurking primitives: never mind how I know.  I just know.)

His writing--which is not on Skins's island--has considerable problems, although he is more coherent than the seabeyond bitch and cousin nadin.

He says he's going to do all this IV stuff on his own.

Skippy, like franksolich, is not a medical professional, and that doesn't seem wise.

I think if Big Mo chatted with him, she could persuade him to get his ass back into the hospital.

His brain has an infection and he's going to do his own IV at home? 

Well, we call them DUmmies for a reason. 

Frank, how is that storm?

The problem I have is this: Skippy's a primitive, and in fact one of the most far-left primitives possible; he makes Kim Jong-on or Idi Amin look moderate.  It's obvious he was brain-washed about the time he first went away to college.

Also, Skippy can be rather silly and juvenile at times.

However.

If this were drunken Bill or Atman or MrsCorpio or the defrocked warped primitive, I wouldn't care.

But as a human being, Skippy has some value to humanity, and if something bad's going to happen to a primitive, best it happen to a primitive who has no value to humanity, of which there's lots.

I hadn't noticed.

[franksolich]

Frank, how is that storm?

Just the first wave's over; the second, harder, one's expected to get here circa 3:00 a.m.

Lots of wind, lightning, and rain. 

Surprisingly, nothing went out.

The lightning was odd; it was incessant, uninterrupted.  Not even half a second in between each flash.  It was continuous.  I'd shut off all the lights in the house, but the endless lightning lit up the interior as if I had dozens of 100-watt light-bulbs around.

The cats survived.

[franksolich]

I hadn't noticed.

Well, somewhere in the deepest darkest crevices of that brain there surely must be values instilled in him when young--he after all came from decent and civilized people, the salt of the earth--and even though he was pretty thoroughly brain-washed, and it's been four decades since he first went to college, those values deeply interred inside him could recrudesce.

<<<always an optimist.

One might say the same thing about a drug addict, a whore, or a felon.

You'll excuse me if I don't share your optimism when it comes to DUmmies.

Chris, even the DUmmies can be upheld as bad examples to society.  "This is what you don't do, kids."

[franksolich]

Well, we know about the CalPig's judgment, don't we?

Uh huh.

Again, that's something I'm not looking at, though.

I'm fascinated by how the hoi polloi, the non-entities, of the primitives treat their betters; they have no respect, no respect at all, for primitives of distinction.

CaliforniaPeggy's pretty silly and utterly unrealistic about the world, but on the other hand she's been around a long time and contributed a great deal to primitivity (and hence to the amusement of decent and civilized people), and she deserves honor and respect from the lumpenunterprimitiven, not criticism.

It's our job, our prerogative, to heap scorn and ridicule and laughter upon the primitives, whether of prominence or non-prominence; it's the job of lesser primitives to kiss the asses of primitives greater than them.

[franksolich]

You'll excuse me if I don't share your optimism when it comes to DUmmies. 

Well now, I'm trying to be Christian here, believing that no one is beyond redemption.

"Believing" and "knowing for a certainty" are two different things, and while this Pollyanna tries very hard to find something good in primitives, at the same time I know it's a futile search.

But hope one must, even if it turns out only one primitive out of the millions who voted for the Big Zero.  Surely there's at least one, somewhere, although in blunt truth, after all these years, I haven't found one.

But look, I must.  One's Christian conscience compels it.

[Big Dog]

Muddy Mo the Crazy Cat Lady is the prototypical Proglodyte.

1. Slumlord who expects her tenants to call her "mother". Democrats have been this way since Andrew Jackson, the "Great White Father."
2. Benevolent Dictator: "She is late with the rent, but I, in my magnanimity, won't throw her and her little children out into the street... for now... so long as she allows my little lawn jockey her 5 year old son to perform slave labor hang out with me."
3. Plantation owner (the Ghetto Chicken Ranch and Everlasting Compost Pile), expects the little pickaninnies to work for her.
4. White Savior, "knows what is best" for the poor downtrodden colored people living in her tenement, and resents when those ungrateful Negroes don't follow her "advice".
5. Authoritarian, using the government's guns to enforce her "advice".
6. Disappointed when the object of her "concern" turns out to not be as poor a parent as she imagined.
7. Does not understand why anyone would think she's a bad person- after all, she's only doing what is best for those poor black people.
8. Keeping the slaves on the plantation so she can receive taxpayer money (rent subsidies go to the property owner, not the renter)

You'd think her fellow DUmpmonkeys would place her on a pedestal.

[miskie]

Mopinko just lost an election.

Every primitive that runs and loses also lose respect on the island, to the point where the loser primitive eventually slinks away. The exception that proves the rule is The Poopsmith and his mini-taco brigade. DU has him reduced to primarily posting cut and paste articles.

[GOBUCKS]

She lost but it was close. Thirteen candidates for twelve seats, and she finished a strong thirteenth.

DUmmies also lose standing if they win an election, if it's for DUmmy of the Year.

The crazy bald dwarf is the only DUmmy to win a DOTY election and retain her standing, but nadin is a special case.

A very special case.

A hateful,vicious,crazed DUmp luantic...I hope she dies in a vat of fermenting chicken shit.

500-odd posts to the thread.  Wow.  You would think that she would quietly delete it and not mention it again.  No, she keeps digging and digging.  That "badly done cubist portrait" post was hilarious. 

I'm not going to hold mopinko to the same esteem Frank does.  She's a bitter ugly spiteful old bitch.

Oh now.

I suppose it's the gallantry in me.

<<<if nothing else, at least gallant.

The past few days, we've had two primitive femmes viciously attacked by other primitives, with nary a primitive standing up for either of them.

Heretofore, I'd held both of these primitives, Big Mo and CaliforniaPeggy, in the same contempt in which I hold all the other primitives.....but then this happened, all of these unwarranted onslaughts on two women by barbarians, savages, angry primitives.

So what is a gentleman to do?  Stand by and let the riff-raff rabble tear them apart?

For the meantime, I'm on their side.  But inevitably--and it's never not happened--Big Mo and CaliforniaPeggy will say something disgusting, forcing me to go back to thinking of them the way I used to think of them.

It's inevitable.
