My ex proposed to me when I broke up to her. What if I said "Wait, yeah," she said "Nah," and I sued her for broach of contract? Would I want to marry someone that felt coerced into it?

Dad fired me when I was a teenager because... well, that was never clear to me, although he had me work for free afterward. What if I sued him for wrongful termination and he was forced to pretend he was going to pay me? Wouldn't that create a hostile workplace?

When I worked at a school I regularly heard of an employee that sued the district, but apparently kept her job, and got what she wanted. I heard she diagnosed her son with Autism and entered him into the Special Olympics as an employee, where he did exceptionally well. She repeatedly got away with what she wanted because she had sued and won before and they knew she would do it again.

So, this kid will never be challenged or held responsible for himself? He will receive Social Security for the rest of his life because his mother insists he is disabled?

Which is worse, Mother Frankenstein, or Mother Frankenstein's Monster.
