as a single father, who's ex is engaged, this really confuses me.
is it in 'name only'?

My ex and I divorced when our son was 6 months old. He has seen him 3 times since then and our son (Mason) is almost 6 years old now. He doesn't call or send birthday/Christmas presents either. My husband has been helping me raise Mason since he was about 2 years old. Recently my ex started complaining about child support considering him and his new wife just gave birth to a new baby (this makes 7 kiddos total for him total from 3 different women). Anyways... My husband wants to adopt Mason and Mason already goes by his name and refuses his birth father's name. This step parent adoption will change his last name from his birth name to my husbands name. This includes on his birthday certificate too. My ex will no longer have to pay child support, will not have any say in his care, or any visitation rights etc as by him signing his rights over to my husband he will then legally become a stranger to our son and have absolutely no rights or responsibilities to anything regarding his life. My husband will take over the rights and responsibilities regarding Mason's care going forward. Hope this helped answer your question.

These Raucous Data hits seem like they're trying to detect disability fraud, given what they ask for. But, they're really bad at finding relevant web pages. They often get things from a decade ago. And one of the pages they had was for an elementary school honor roll. Apparantly, a first grader had the same name as the person they're concerned with.

Maybe they're claiming disability to try to get out of school.

Right? Why couldn't I have thought of that?

 

[hyzmarca]

They're just crawling for names, I think. Which is why they keep sending me to calendars to look for women named April.

Just curious, I've seen some surveys available to me with 18-25 age requirements. Didn't MTurk setup an age filter?

Yeah, but requesters have to pay extra if they want to use MTurk's age qual system. It's free if they make up their own quals.

Wow that is stupid, lol. Amazon is so greedy.

Good morning!

Does anyone use a laptop desk/table that has a squishy pillow-type bottom? I found this one at IKEA but when I checked it out in person, the quality wasn't good. There are a few on Amazon but the reviews and prices are all over the place. Suggestions?

I had a wood one that I bought off Amazon that I liked. There are a lot to pick from so finding the exact model would be impossible, but the wooden ones have quite a few adjustments so it doesn't touch you and you can still get comfortable.

If you want the squishy bottom, I would just worry about it keeping my legs hot, but the first one listed is squishy.

On top of the basic Mturk fees.....And then many also give a buttload of money to turk prime.....and then we end up with $2/hr surveys.

Yay.

Could you do me a huge favor, please? Having referral links in your signature is totally cool, but I ask that they please not be big banner ad-type things. They can be a little distracting and a bit of an eyesore if a lot of people start using them.

It's not needed, but some like to use it because it makes it easier on their end to manage their HITs. https://www.turkprime.com/

You might try this as a site search, and an image search. It's not perfect, but it might give you some leads.: "li logo" + "rectangle -super -bowl

Thank you very much for the suggestion. I saw the Super Bowl logos, but he specified he only wanted logos the were lower case "li"'s in a rectangle. I found one in a rectangle and 3 without. Anyway, it's kind of moot now I guess because I mistakenly hit enter as a return when I was typing, and the hit submitted before I could get my links in. I emailed him and sent him what I had and telling him what happened, but he rejected before he saw the email I think...and I emailed him some more links explaining, but I think he either is not checking or doesn't care.
