Re: Daughters Employment

More | Report Post

I am absolutely baffled and amazed that someone giving a legal

simply feel this was innapropriate and are concerned that
problems may arise in the future and want to know what if any
steps we should take now to help our daughter avoid an
uncomfortable situation later.
