Yeah I know of several that have ruined their lives, their kids lives,
and had their kids taken from them and turned over to DHS.
I have seen the police chase them through my neighborhood
and have to fire on them with guns to get the vehicle stopped.
One of the vehicles crashed and burned 200 ft. from my house,
and the suspect got out with weapon in hand and they killed him
right there on the spot.
In Oklahoma if you brandish a weapon near police it is not going
to end well for you.
I have been lazy at times, but I do not expect other ppl to pay
for it, and I would not put a family through what you described
if I had one.
I have quit two high paying jobs for what I felt was fair reasons,
and my house and car is paid off. I was in Cuba for a year on
one, and the other was killing me via mandantory graveyard
shift and inability to sleep in my noisy neighborhood during the day.
I have it in my mind that I better enjoy my time off while I can
because what is in store for us in the future we will not see
social security, and more likely we will not see the USA we have known.
I have never felt I could handle having a family due to what
my parents were like, and I do not do well under constant stress.
I tend to lose my temper, so no family for me.
I like to help ppl, and I like to make a difference, and I like
most ppl I meet, but I have a low tolerance for crying, whining,
throwing tantrums, and ppl blowing my money on frivolity.
Ppl taking advantage me and I fly into a rage.
I believe in "spare the rod, you spoil the child" and that will just end
badly with the government taking my kids.
So I will prolly die with no immediate family.
I am ok with it, and it is prolly for the better in my case.
As badgerprints said, I am lazy sometimes, but I have never been
a parasite as an adult.
