Should kids be allowed to sue their parents?

[Kevin]

This thread and that anyone would be interested in this is just kind of creepy. This is a family going through a rough time. I've seen weird and I've seen worse. The only wrinkle here is that she is 18, which according to my limited research of NJ law, there was probably a smarter approach for this young lady. In NJ, you are not deemed an adult simply because you are 18 for the purposes of the parents' duty to support their child. It might have been appropriate here to file for guardianship.

And please.. just don't believe the allegations on one side of the case. I have seen very few cases (as a lawyer who has done hundreds of family law/custody cases where the Judge could take either party completely at their word. In family law cases more than anyplace else, parties are lying manipulative bastards. Even as the attorney, it's hard to tell when your client is being truthful sometimes.

This family deserves privacy. Calling her "princess" is really uncalled for. You've read some snarky editorialized BS, from Fox News of all places and have made your mind up. That is always ill-advised.
