Facebook Aunt posted:Why would you sign over your company to someone no more than 23? The home too. I guess if you wanted to secure assets in case of emergency or death you could make them partners, but just signing over everything you own is hella weird. Because you want to make sure the recipient understands that they owe you. Not just owe you but owe you EVERYTHING.

I honestly wonder if there was some sort of fraud or bankruptcy impending, and she was trying to protect assets.

An old co-worker of mine got handed a business and some property from her dad before he got audited and it's basically been one giant albatross around her neck ever since.

So the other day I got a string of messages from my father begging me to let him explain himself so we can be a family again. I cut him off in 1998. He was extremely violent and abusive, especially towards my mom. He tried to murder her one night amd I witnessed it. I was 8. That finally led to divorce and was the first time he went to jail. He's how I know what crack smells like. Walking through certain areas of downtown brings me back to my childhood  He somehow got my email in 2003 or so, and would send me e-cards to which I responded with a massive drunken email explaining what my childhood was like and how I wanted nothing to do with him. I fully blocked him. In 2010 or 2011 I made a comment on a Facbook post making a joke about what a shithead he was, but what I didn't know was she had added him to track his movements so she knew how to avoid him. He sent me a string of nasty messages through Facebook messenger about how awful and disappointing I am. I didn't respond blocked him. I think it was around this time I found out he had a third kid, and I had a brother 18 or so years younger than me. Then like a year later, I was shown a message that he was moving to my city from across the country to "patch up the family". My mom and I are the only ones here, so I changed my facebook name to a fake name so I'd be harder to find. I saw him one day in the Wal-mart in the mall I worked at. He didn't see me but I had a full blown panic attack that lasted half an hour. After maybe a year, he moved back east and I was safe again. Now, I have my brother on Facebook because he was innocent of all this and I explained to him why my dad is not in life. He told me he understood and would respect it. That was 5 years ago. This week I got a bunch of messages from my dad, he told me it was really hard to find me. You fuckin THINK? He must have made a new Facebook account to message me, because he was 100% blocked. Or does blocking expire after a certain number of years? It better not. At any rate I had a 2 day panic attack and missed work. I feel like my brother told him how to find me which pisses me off. I didn't respond and blocked them both. This all happened a couple days after my brother posted a string of bizarre posts about all sorts of weird poo poo so I don't think he's all there just like his dad.

He 100% created a new account and found your profile through a mutual friend - a comment, a friend list, etc. All that you can do is block his new account, double-check your privacy settings again, and change your profile pic/name. I'm sorry you had to deal with him again. That sounds awful.

Yeah he created another account. Sorry you have to deal with this shithead again. Worth checking your privacy settings on Facebook every year or so too.

She says "To legal protect any assets and give responsibilities and work ethic to them, I wrongly passed the Directorship of the company to the oldest one" which does make it sound like something shifty financially is going on, with the plausible deniability of "oh I just wanted them to learn leadership skills and have some work experience" worked in.

With the reference to moving from another country and the specific grammatical errors she makes, it sounds like this family is Chinese, so don't judge her too harshly for her bad English.

Heads up - if you have your FB URL as Facebook.com/somethingcustom he can find you that way as well with a new account My boyfriend and I talked about his mom last night and while he knows why I’m estranged from my dad, I never knew the extent of the relationship between his mom and him. She was just flat out not there for him, and he basically raised himself, good and bad. He has a brother who went into the foster system and he barely saw him, and seeing him so destroyed over the zero relationship he has with him, it kills me. He’s terrified to reach out to the rest of the family as he doesn’t know if they’re on good terms with the mother (he has a ton of siblings and all have been estranged from her at various times!), and he wants to be that cool uncle, and his nieces and nephews want to know him. I can handle my own hosed up family nonsense fine, but knowing that my boyfriend went through a lot of awful poo poo as a child - it hits me differently.

Probably for the best to block them both if the brother is unreliable and/or you suspect that they sold you out. I had, not a sibling, but their spouse sell me out because they came from a big functional family and couldn't comprehend why anyone wouldn't talk to their parents; so when our biological parents gave them a big sob story, they fell for it hook, line, and sinker. They've since learned better, but I still don't trust that particular in-law with anything sensitive to this very day.

it's either that or she thinks her son thinks he's too good to wait inside starbucks and that's why he's standing outside of it, instead of assuming he wanted to give his daughter and her friends some privacy instead of looming in the background.

I just completely did away with Facebook when I cut out my family back in 2012 and it was the best decision. They change their policies and options and controls so often that one day you'll sign on and suddenly be searchable again. It's made it a lot more difficult for my family to find me (in my case it's my unstable sister that's twelve years older than me) but she's still found ways to message my spouse and best friend through their accounts over the years.

Today in "advice column full of red flags": https://www.marketwatch.com/story/m...oney-2020-02-04 Unfortunately the advice is loving horrible. There's 0.0% chance there's no reason her father cut her out of the will and the only reason her son won't let her see her grandson is because she asked him for the inheritance money.

AuntBuck posted:I'd bet she was looting the house while taking care of her dad. We're pretty sure that's what happened when my dad's brothers were taking care of their mom. Though in true estranged sibling fashion, I've been getting some really interesting (in a very  sort of way) info out of an aunt who I recently reconnected with. I was always under the impression that my dad and his brother (her husband) were estranged as gently caress, but it turns out my uncle used to carry a photo of me in his wallet before he got married and had his own kids, so I think my dad might be full of poo poo?Family stuff is weird, y'all. Holy poo poo, that article linked that's like, "I discovered my biological father was someone else via Ancestry.com genealogy searches. He's been dead for 30 years. Can I still get some of that inheritance?"  This is why I'm never getting on one of those loving registries. Biological strangers are still strangers.

On the flip-side, a few years ago I got to listen to a piece on the BBC that included a dude in his 50's blubbering about not knowing his real father because he was the product of his mom's side piece.

Yeah, that was the weird thing, because he did have a father, one of those DNA tests just revealed that he wasn't the biological one. Apparently it's pretty common to find that poo poo out with these tests, usually it's siblings discovering it and finding out they're half-brothers/sisters
