I guess it is hard for people to understand the entire situation and the relationship between parents and teens from reading a board. I really don't know where everyone gets that I am making excuses because I am not. It was very stupid. I was just trying to get the point across that teenagers...

I would have thought OSHA would have fined the **** out of this company for lack of training. I hope the company has learned something from this and train everyone from now on. Next time they may not be so lucky. I cannot imagine what you are going through. It must be really hard to see...

Shew you guys are really brutal. First off I simply asked for legal advice. I thought that was what this board was for but obviously I was wrong. This is a board for some people to be judgmental and critical of others. You guys have no idea what my children are like. I did not ask you to...

I really think that was uncalled for. :( If you had read the original post you would have known what part of the car he jumped on. I stated that he jumped on the back of the car in that post. I did not know I had to re-tell the story everytime I sent a post. She is a teenager. She is not...

The % is the amount the part is impaired. You may have an impairment to one part or to the body as a whole. If the rating is 20% to both arms then there must be some injury to both arms. Is the 20% to the body as a whole? This percentage is usually associated with a monetary settlement. The...

What reason did they give for firing you? You missed a conference call? If you feel that they did fire you because of your wc injury, hire an attorney and file a retalitory discharge suit against your company. Some attorney's will consult initially with you for free. Consult with an attorney...

When it comes to WC a lot depends on your state laws. When the employer calls just tell them that you appreciate him/her calling but you are very busy taking care of your son and do not really have time to talk to him about his condition. Tell the employer that he/she can contact the...

Was the WC doctor that you saw on a panel given to you by your employer? Did you choose him/her from that panel? When you went to your primary doctor you will be responsible for all related expenses. You may also be responsible for any ortho bills including surgery. The WC law states that if...

Tell him, not your daughter, that you will contact his sgt. and let him know what he is doing. The military will not look kindly on this. Tell him to stay away from your daughter. Yes she will probably get mad but she will get over it and probably thank you some day. You cannot treat her as...

If you read the original question you would know he jumped on the back of the car. He jumped on the bumper and held on to the back windows. It is a small car. I really don't think it matters what part of the car he jumped on. He was on the outside.

Is this with a homeowner's policy? Someone told me that sometimes there is a liability clause in homeowner's insurance that can protect you in these types of cases. I wish I had known about this before! Thanks for the information!

I do appreciate your honesty JETX. Are you an attorney? I am only asking because I do not know if you are giving me true legal opinion or if you are someone who likes to give his/her opinion. You do seem a little cynical at times! She is a teenager! Remember those years when you did not...

I am sorry I don't know how to put the "Quote" in a box. I hope you can understand what I am trying to ask. OHNnurse: Will my 18 yo daughter's insurance be responsible? JETX: No. Problem is.... she gave permission to an unlicensed and uninsured driver to drive her carm her insurance will...

What is the name of your state? TN My 2 daughters (age 18 and 17) were in a parking lot with several friends. The 17 yo was sitting in the 18 yo car listening to the radio. An 18 yo boy jumps on the back of the car and asked 17 yo to drive. She does, he falls off and is injured. The car...

What is the name of your state? TN My daughter is 19 yo. She works for a fast food chain. Some of her male coworkers have been calling her names such as whore, slut, hoe, etc... There are two males doing this. She went on two dates with one of them and after she told him she only wanted to...
