TEENAGE TROUBLE
My cousin Jen just spoke with a bankruptcy attorney and her head is spinning. She is unable to pay her bills due to unforeseen circumstances. It seems that her teenage son, who does not have a driver’s license, took her new car and was involved in an accident. Jen never had trouble with her son Jack before but he got involved with the wrong crowd and wanted to impress his new friends with his mother’s car. Before he was able to pick up his pals, he lost control of the car and hit three parked cars and damaged city property as well. The only good thing is that Jack or no other person was hurt in the accident. Jen is a single mom and since her son has no insurance and in under legal age she is liable for all the debts incurred from Jack’s accident. With all the bills coming in, Jen decided that getting advice from a bankruptcy attorney would be to her advantage. That conversation was really an education. She never realized that bankruptcy could be so complicated. She came home and had a long talk with Jack. I really hope Jack learned a lesson and will straighten himself out so Jen doesn’t have to put up with any more of his shenanigans.
