Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I read the comments and I read the people interview. to be quite honest, for that being people magazine, they were pretty nice to him.
I will say this, when my daughter was in her teens, there was a kid down the street who’s was living with his grandma. His mom was a meth addict, and his dad was an alcoholic. When his grandma died, we opened our home to him. During that time, and I still do now - refer to him as my son. He is full grown now and married and has a life. To be honest, I haven’t talked to him in a long time. But at the time I did treat him like his son.
But I was also married, and had my daughter at home too. I think with all the pedophilia, and all the programming and all the wrongdoings with everybody - it’s so easy to think the worst about people. It’s not a stretch these days anyway. However; in math, defense… If the kid is his girlfriend’s brother, it would make sense because he was trying to immigrate here, and it provided a home for the child. Even if they did separate it sometime, it probably would’ve been a better transition for the kid to stay with Matt in America then go back to Cuba🤷♀️
I do know that in the past that Matt has been dragged and had some lawsuits that finally went away. I don’t know what’s all the details were of all that. I’m hoping he’s not a bad guy, but if I found out he was, I wouldn’t be shocked. For now, I’m putting it in the TBD category.
