threat about section 8

Just curious what your opinion...


I was listening my friend talked...

He was so mad at his new date lady ( only about 3 months) because a lady still have his older son who over 20 years old and live with her. He is a threat to her that he will be calling her section 8 that her son still live with her?

Phillips, I'm somewhat confused at your post.

Are you asking what a "section 8" means? In the military, anyone discharged for medical reasons is honorably discharged under Section Eight of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. However, the term "section 8" to most GIs implies a discharge for psychological reasons, for being certified insane. Thus, a section 8 is someone who is crazy.

Or are you asking opinions as to whether a person is crazy who has a child older than twenty living with her? It my opinion, it's none of your friend's business. His girlfriend may have any of a dozen legitimate, sane reasons for supporting an adult child or allowing him to live with her.

From what you know of your friend, is it possible that he may be totally self-centered and want his girlfriend's attention all for himself?

Or are you asking opinions about something else?

Or is this Section 8 in terms of reduced income for housing?

section 8 may know that the lady's son live with her? beside one is right it is none of our business. tell him to let it go and worry about his life and his own business instead of other business! what goes around will go around so it can bite him in ass! beside too many adult children are living with the parents nowadays.. alot of them cant afford housing costs as it is very high compare to the past it was cheap. it was on news not long ago. so tell that guy who cares. i wouldnt worry about it if i were you.

I'm not sure I understand the situation.

Your friend (a guy) has been dating this person (a gal) for a few months. That gal has a 20-year-old son living with her.

That gal has filed for Section 8, so that she has help paying for her rent. Your friend doesn't want that gal's son living with her and is threatening to call on him. If this is the case, this could be a bad thing for that gal. If the son already has income, he could be helping her out with the rent and Section 8 wouldn't be needed. Therefore, she's "cheating" the government. Reporting on her would get her in trouble.

Is this what you're saying?

Sorry me make a short story.. Ok here long story...

Pretend the names.. Guy name is umm David.. His new date gal name is um Kathy.. ok


Kathy's son age about 20 or 21 doesn't working and depend on her. Kathy paid the food, cooking, bills, his cell phone and live with her apartment with section 8. David is pissed off at her son do nothing! David told Kathy that She needs kick her son out but Kathy couldn't rid of her son. David is a threat to Kathy that her son must move out or David will be calling section 8 Because Kathy don't want to break up with David.


Seem to me that Kathy is middle of between her son and date David!


I felt that David could back off and let Kathy decide?

What does David have to do with it. David and Kathy have been dating only three months, nothing serious about it. David don't live with them therefore it's NONE his business! Period! It's up to Kathy. If David don't like that idea of Kathy's son is living with her then say good bye to Kathy and stay out of their business. Period!

**nodding agreement** Plus, Kathy needs to kick David to the curb. If he cares about her, why would he try to gwet her into trouble? Plus, he sounds like a complete control freak to me.

Yep, any guy that dates a woman for 3 months and thinks he has the right to tell her how to handle her business with her children has some serious issues. Especially when he says he will try to get her in trouble if she doesn't do what he wants her to do! Kathy needs to away as fast as she can from him!

Yep ,, agree there 110% with you. He don't have the right to make idle threat to her. Very immature of him. I would not be surprise that some adults still live with their folks for many reasons. But sometimes we adults end up taking care of our folks in their old age or health reasons. Nothing to be ashame of living with the parents in our adult years. Family is important and they are always there for you and you there for them. :-)

Seem like David is pretty much sound like a control freak. It's all about me! A control freak wants to be talked about - within the community, off of it via email or phone, and especially face to face. To be called names is as good as to be praised, to be ostracized as good as to be sought out - so long as the focus of the community shifts substantively from its own interests to the control freak him- or herself. And the best of all is to be argued over - to split the community into those who approve and those who disapprove of the control freak's statements, attitude, or presentation. Sound like his behavor to her. It does raise lot of red flag on him.

But, You can refuse to worsen their problem by refusing to play along. Control freaks don't realize that they can get what they need without manipulating others, and every successful manipulation strengthens the impression that other strategies are a waste of time and energy. Just say NO to a control freak.

Interest....... David did dump her once, but She is still stubborn chase him! Even He did insults to her.. I am surprise that she didn't leave him. He said She want him because He is homeowner and live middle class.

She kept called his vp and e.mails. David felt building up fed up with her and threat to her about section 8

I did advice him... Ignore her and back off.

After Many times read e.Mails and see flashing Vp phone to ignore but after that he gives up and reply to her! Ugh.. He has little felt bad for her because she told him that she wants care of him to laundry, cooking dinner etc. but David do not want her son.

How does David know that Kathy's son is not included in the section 8 program? Did Kathy tell him that?

David should just mind his own business because it's her son not his, why does he care who she's living with?

I will tell you right now, if a man ever even attempted to come between me and my child and force me to choose my child or him, the choice would be very clear. I would kick him to the curb and tell him to be gone.

If this is what he's like at 3 months of dating, guess what he would be like when married.

But I do see a point - that the grown child does need to at least get a job and pay for their own bills such as cell phone, car payment, and gas. But if the child is mentally deficient such as Down's Syndrome or Autism (or a spectrum of it), or even mental disorders such as schizophrenia, the grown child may not be able to hold down a job. So really it needs to be a individual- based thing where individual circumstances dictate one's individual lifestyle. The boyfriend has no say in this, he's not living there, its not his problem to worry about.
