I think she might be taking me to court for
child support?

Speaker 2 (00:08):
How old is your son?

Speaker 1 (00:09):
He's fifteen? Damn. Yeah. We've never been on like, you know,
like papers before, Like we just kind of had an
agreement and things have been going really really well until like, oh,
on the last couple of months. She's just almost like
a different person almost. I don't want to go that route,
especially because our son's fifteen. It might be a lot

(00:31):
of upfront money and I'm just not ready to do
that right now. They might make you pay back pay too.
Bro's true.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Yeah, you might have to go all the way back
to when he was born. So you want to just
get an opportunity to talk to her because she's not
really speaking to you about the situation. So you just
kind of need a mediator to be like, hey, what's
really going on here to where we can't figure it out?

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yeah, I don't know if she's plotting something. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
All right, Well, what's her name? Let's get around the
phone to see if we can talk.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Kanya.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
Hey, I'm doing all right her? Are you We're okay?

Speaker 1 (01:01):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:03):
So we know a little bit about what you guys
have going on, you and Marcus, because he reached out
to us looking for a mediator essentially for the situation
that you guys have going on. So before I mean,
he's on the phone on hold, but before we get
him back on like you know, obviously I don't know
you said this is your personal information, but essentially he's
saying that this court thing could be a problem for

(01:25):
you guys, or at least him for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Well, the thing is, I've tried to talk to him
about these things and it's like I can't get anywhere.
I don't know what the hell's going on. So I've
got to take him to court.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
I mean, we've.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Got to get things in writing. Yeah, it's been a
rite up until now. But I mean, here's the thing.
He just seems so distracted, like he doesn't have time
to you know, pick up MJ at this practices, he
does football and all this stuff, and I just he's
spending less and less time with him, and I'm just like,
what is going on. You got to spend this amount

(01:58):
of time with him, You got to spend this amount
of money, which you know has been becoming less and less.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Yeah, I mean I think his thing is like, dang,
we've been doing this for fifteen years, Like why can't
we figure it out? So, I mean, obviously, I'm sure
you know, you sound like a very grown confident woman,
like you're gonna have to talk to us out.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
Yeah, So is it okay? Put home? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Yeah, go ahead, Okay, Marcus.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Hey, Carya, come on, you know, I do the best
I can, like I'll be there, and yeah, it's been
a little a little shaky, like for the glass two weeks,
but besides that, everything else is good.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
Marcus has been longer than two weeks.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
It's just bad.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
So the cause of this, well, you know what, I
think it's this woman that you're seeing.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
I really do.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
Yeah, she's been rude to her son, and she's taking
your money and your time away from my son that
belongs to him.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
She's not making things worse, Tiffany's making things better. She's
making me a better person. So it's about her.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Well, she's she's all, well, you're buying her things.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
I've gotten you the money. I've been a little bit
late a couple times when I came through.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah, not with all of it, though.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Can I say as to cause you guys are arguing
and that's not how you're going to get to where
you need to get to at all. So let me
ask you, Tanya, are you jealous of this woman, because
it's starting to sound like maybe you aren't. It's more
emotional emotional than it is just the fact that he's
not showing up and stuff, which is not okay either. Marcus.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
It has been fifteen years and I am so over him.
But I want the best for my son.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
You've been raising this person, this you know, your son
with this woman for this many amount of years. A
new person coming in, you have to respect her opinion
about what's going on.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
We need you to show up.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
He needs you to be the same person. He needs you,
not not Tanya, you know, not Tiffany. But remember that
you're in charge of raising this young man, so that's right.
Are you willing to talk to him about not having
to go through the court.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Absolutely, okay, we can.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
You know, if we can work it out, then I
don't need to go through the course. But it's just
been so bad that it's like, well, this is the
only the only thing I got left, I admit.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Okay, yeah, things change a bit, but I promise you,
like I'm I'm locked in, I'm gonna be I'm gonna
be there for Marcus for sure, for Marcus and whatever
you need. We got it lost. It's only three more
years of this. Come on, okay,
