That policy is ridiculous.  You get a money order for bills because you don't have a checking account, and the MO is as good as cash.  You keep the receipt for you records, and as proof, and you send the other bit to the gas company, et al.

Also, since MO's are essentially guaranteed (since you paid cash to get the thing), most banks should be obligated to cash it.  Check your state's regulations.

The bank is, the grocery store's service desk isn't.

I'll cash it at my bank for her.

They have, apparently, been having trouble with fraud recently. So this is a new thing that us mortals have to deal with, and companies aren't bothered because they have mysterious ways of doing all that stuff.

Also, I realize this is a little tangental, but


I WANNA GET LAAAAAIIIIIDAAAAHHHH!

The ex is arranging to have the Monkey picked up this morning instead of later, which is very convenient as I have things to do which would be far more difficult while having to make sure he doesn't get into everything. So see? the ex does have a use.

Scratch my last post.

So it's been over a week that I've had this fucking money order. I bothered them (the ex and HIS ex) for five days straight on how their search for the other bit of paper I need was coming, and they just ignored me.

Fuck them. With horrible spiky dildoes.

So the ex is just going to new lengths to be retarded. Or he's so full of shit that he's got metaphorical copromesis. What he's done is that he's gone and gotten the monkey an appointment at some early start program shit, to see if he's got a speech development problem. His "concern" is that he's "supposed" to be speaking 2000 words by now.

He somehow thinks that putting the monkey through this ordeal before he gets to school age, namely NOW, is going to be of more help than just trying to spend time with him and help the monkey himself.

The piece of shit is holding the monkey to some whacked out standard that I can't fathom, other than maybe internet and parenting books and people I wouldn't trust my kids with anyway saying there is something wrong.

I told him off and explained things to him, but meh. He's not gonna listen.

He is off by a factor of about 20. Stab him in the eyes.

That's also pretty handy, I'llpoint out to him that while he might not be excelling in talking, he CAN count. All the way up to sixteen (kind of).

I just txt'd my mom the question, and she says between 200 and 500 depending on many variables. I tend to trust her opinion on things related to early child development.

Personally, I wouldn't worry until age 5, and by that I mean shit all over your ex for planning on subjecting your small to this. Language therapy sucked balls at age 6, can't imagine it being fun for a 2 yr old.

I have been, but I have to be civil about it, in case texts become evidence (and that would help e out tons) in the hearing I'll be going to shortly.

so, killing him and rendering his body into tallow would be bad I take it.

Just a bit.
