This particular issue is about private property and how the parents want to use their own home. The parents are only legally obligated to provide for him until he reaches 18. They are way past that point. This is only a private property issue.
How dude plans to take care of himself and his 8yo son is up to him, and probably would be a good discussion for another threat. That would be the statism argument. This is private property.

Adding, if parents had done this when dude first dropped out of school, he might have learned how to take care of himself. He would likely have learned that parents are long-suffering, the rest of the world, not so much.

There is really something off about this guy. He has the foresight to know not to talk about his embarrassing work history because it might affect his future employment but then he sees no problem mentioning who he voted for even though that would cast a negative light on whoever it is.
Also, you live in your cousin's sisters house? Isn't your cousin's sister also your cousin. I wouldn't be surprised if all this was made up distraction to divert attention from real news ala Stormy Daniels 2.0

The news media really went out of it's way to cover this one individual despite the statistics showing a fairly high number of millennials still living at home. Since everything we see out of the news media is some form of propaganda I think there is a high probability that this story is no different since the propaganda benefits the two major political parties.The U.S. Census Bureau found that 31% of 18-34-year-olds lived with their parents in 2016, compared to just 26% in 1975. Examining the state-by-state data reveals some of the underlying reasons.
The Northeast leads the way in percentages of millennials living at home, led by New Jersey (46.9%), Connecticut (41.6%), and New York (40.6%). All three states have high costs of living, including rent and/or house payments. In such areas, it simply makes sense for millennials to stay at home if that's an option.
For Democrats, the housing affordability issue helps them since shaming poor millenials may give them a push to leave the home when they cannot afford to on their own and therefore require public housing assistance. More millennials on public assistance means more Democrat voters now and in the future.
The story also benefits Republicans by shaming poor millennials with the false belief that the economy is fantastic for jobs and wages so that millennials have no excuse not to be self supporting no matter the region.
This is no different than most stories that come out of the MSM, designed to benefit either party and corporate interests at the behest of Americans living in poverty.
Did you not read the part where the parents asked him to move out four months ago? And what about the part about not applying for jobs so he could avoid child support? That child is 8 years old. And dude does not want his parents to have any kind of access to their own grandchild.
Dude has a Camaro he won't sell. Dude pays thousands to store his stuff, but won't pay child support or rent to his parents.

I did not see that in any of the news reports on TV that all had very limited details. Also did not see that in any of the original articles about the Camaro or paying thousands to store his stuff.
Not doubting again what you posted is true and agree with your points particularly on private property rights. But I think you missed the point I was making about why the news media covered it and made a big deal of it. Do you really think the news media gives a damn about private property rights? This was besides it is was clearly indicated his actions were a direct result of responding to statism - discussed early in the thread.
The cousin's sister might or might not be a step cousin but one thing is for sure she will surely be stepped on. Big Mistake letting this guy even visit your home.
The media have been siding with this guy, and a little digging shows he has more than the claims to have. That makes him a deadbeat dad, and we all know how the media feel about them.
This guy is not a typical millennial. I'm not a fan of broad brush painting anyway. This is a 30 year old man with an 8yo son. The man pays less in child support that most people pay for coffee. The many is deliberately trying to work the system so he can avoid responsibility of any kind. People might find themselves back home with their parents for one reason or another, but few of them see that as some kind of goal. Most want to be out in their own homes forming their own families.
I think the problem with your article is that the choice seemed to be that he should live with his parents so we don't have to take care of him. The real answer is that the man should be taking care of himself and his child without having to rely on his parents or taxpayers.
The first step of the process is for the parents to reclaim their property, and they have done so. Hence involvement of the court. Clearly the man is no stranger to courts because he is way behind on his court-ordered child support.

You have the right to remain silent. Anything you post to the internet can and will be used to humiliate you.
The media has been siding with this guy? What are you watching, since it has been a total $#@! show mocking the guy for again what I believe is to satisfy various state propaganda narratives.
I think you are giving the state a free pass for their role in this story. You are also using the term "deadbeat dad", a statist epithet against fathers living in poverty that demands government involvement in family life. The government has no right to be involved in the lives of families. You bring children into this world you are both equal parents, period. You completely missed the point I was making that it was likely those laws in the first place that forced the father to apply for the poor person exemption. The reason being to avoid jail time due to the draconian child support laws in some states acted upon by activist Judges that jail people living in poverty for failure to reach "ability to earn" a wage the state believes one can earn.
I do not know what to make about this individuals behavior but I do know removing access to ones children and putting a gun to a persons head and say "earn" or else will have a damaging psychological impact. For some it will work and others mental illness to a point where they are working around the state laws to avoid jail time or simply not working.
Typical and it breaks some people mentally when it does not go as you described or the ex uses false allegations to gain the upper hand. Government does not care and along with their news media mouthpiece sleighs all single fathers as deadbeat scum while they take their cut.
Not sure what is going on really with this dude but to your last paragraph how many get to that point where the man just says $#@! it knowing the government will have their hand in everything and will take it all to divide between themselves and the ex for the next 18 years.
Men are forced to prostrate himself before their ex and the court in a totally humiliating manner like a beggar for time to see the children and to keep some of his own earnings as not to end up homeless. Then with a boot on his neck told to PAY UP and earn X or they will take all your licenses, throw you in jail to support the ex's lifestyle of living high in the hog on his money and in some cases her promiscuity in front of his kids. Meanwhile the difficulty level for him to find another relationship just went up with his new slave poverty status and whatever mental illness developed as a result of all this.
