Taking a 2 year old to a concert, especially of that type of music, is child endangerment. The ears of a toddler are sensitive. It is just way too loud, so you would need ear protective gear. Also why would do all the stress to the kid, too many people, waiting time, alcohol around, maybe violence or being pushed around in the crowd. For an event the kid will not even remember because it's to young? That is just selfish trying to get money for the tickets for the parents buy selling out the "cute kid" on social media.
My son's first concert was Iron Maiden when he was 3, daughter's was Judas Priest when she was 2. However, we got actual seats, not standing floor, that were a fair distance back from the stage and brought noise-reduction headphones for them both times. Its fine to take a kid to a metal show, you just have to play it smart and play it safe. Given how CB is lashing out in her post, I'm assuming she's not doing either. Also, I just looked it up and from what I gather, most if not all Manson shows are 18+ so good luck, CB.
Yes especially a marilyn manson concet i have never see him in person but from what i have seen in the video that music is not suitable for a two year old.

As an Irish person, raised Catholic, that ain't what godparents are for. They're a fancy way of saying if the parents pass the children go to them, and even then not always. Last I saw my godfather was my 18th since him and my dad hate each other.
As an ex-Catholic, I learned that the role of godparents is to give the child a Catholic upbringing if for some reason the parents can't. Which I am godfather to a couple of children but if your parents don't raise you Catholic then don't look to me to do so...
Raised same way. The God Parents are there to take care of you in case something happens to your parents. These chucklefucks wanted a slave for their kid for 18 years
Wow, I was raised Catholic, I hardly see my godfather since he's in another state. They wanted to pawn some of the raising of the child off on the friend.
It just feels like the couple expecting OP to send Jane money for 18 years just doesn’t want to take on the responsibility of being a parent to Jane. Even if that wasn’t the case, they are essentially trying to charge OP to babysit her for life. I’m pretty sure the couple would’ve just taken the money and spent it on themselves and Jane would never have seen a penny.
That's exactly what would happen. $500 is what the government gives foster parents for the foster children. They would've took everything and Jane wouldn't even see a single penny of OP's money.
Yeah I really hate it when people have a child because they want a toy or something cute like a puppy(not as though you should treat animals as objects in the first place but the gross mindset is instilled within alot of people regardless) and then expects everything to be handed to them. Like no, the child didnt ask to be born you are the one who decided to conceive a human being. It's your job to take care of it FOR LIFE. it isnt a 18yr contract it is a human being you are obligated to care and provide for
I have 2 kids. My in laws are keeping my kids for a night for us to have maximum 36 hours away. Vacation for 4 days? The kids went. Trips? Kids go. School and care? We pay for it. Baptism?

He's opening himself up to a lot of judgement for that. Shame on the parents. That applies to the next story too.
@@Hertacles In my family we all got baptised in our teens, when we choose to do so on our own. The silly thing about godparents is that they are meant to be a spiritual guide for a child. Not guardians or and extra aunt/uncle.
@@Hertacles Yup. I have one kid and in the past year he’s spent 2 nights not with my husband and I. One night he had a sleepover with his cousins and the other night he stayed with my in-laws because I had surgery. Honestly, he probably would have waited at the hospital with my husband while I was in surgery, but right now they only allow one person, so he couldn’t. I don’t understand people that have kids, but then expect to foist them off on other people. Especially if they’re insisting that family/friends take care of their kids for free.
About 3 years ago my dad decided my, then 2 y/o daughter needed a play set. Found one that was only 3 years old, three swings, two slides, two story play house, and a bunch of add-ons. Because the owners just wanted it gone they were selling it for $300, contingent on buy disassembles, and transports it. So, we paid the $300, took it apart, piece by piece, took 3 trips hauling it to his house, and even paid the nice workmen who offered to help with the really heavy stuff $20 each. Dad sealed all the wood, cleaned the pieces, and then reassembled it in my backyard. This set sold new for $2500. Grandpa won Christmas that year.
@@serenabrowne4517 my dad spoils her. I'm an only and she is an only, so I think now that he is in a very good financial position and, unlike when I was a kid, not moving ever couple years, he is spoiling her.
I love Marilyn Manson, but that's no place for a child. Hell. Most live shows are no place for a child. The Sound gets so loud it can make your ears ring. Imagine that for a kid's ears
I am not exactly a child anymore, even my son is not a child anymore but I have never been to an indoors concert. even to outdoors music festivals I often wear ear plugs. to bring such a small child is abuse.

On the babysitting story: are the parents even trying to potty train? They said their 4 yo is in pull ups but didn’t mention to help them use the toilet or anything. Also it’s my understanding that kids should be potty trained by the time they’re 4. I mean my 2 yo wears pull ups, but if you’re not trying to potty train they’re just different diapers.
In the end, it depends on the child for when they're ready to be potty trained. If you try beforehand, prepare for lots of struggles and frustration. Once they've decided to use the toilet, you can generally get them mostly potty trained in a few weeks or so max I think? It's been a while since I was reading on this, but it's somewhere around that. However, if you try to force the kids to be potty trained it can take months or years before they are consistently using the potty. In hte end though, every human is different and potty training is no exception.
@@GryphStone I'll admit an element of truth to what you say but also there is an increasing problem of people not potty training their kids at all and just sending them to school and then being surprised when they're told to train them.
@@piyam5000 Seriously? I was potty trained late, but I was perfected long before school. Some babysitter insisted on putting a nighttime nappy on me because my parents forgot to tell her I'd stopped wearing them. I tried to say so but she wouldn't listen to me (yes, I have crazy long term memory).
@@piyam5000 aye, and that's why you want to make it appealing to be potty trained in the kids pov. For some it's the idea of not needing to wear diapers to bed, for others it's being 'big', and for others still it might take some rewards to help provide incentive. I was mostly trying to point out that it'd be nothing to worry about if all it is is a lack of potty training, and not a lack of reasons for the kid to want to be potty trained being provided.
@@GryphStone when you train kids to use the bathroom...you turn it into a game! My mom used cheerios as "targets" to help disabled boys aim properly. (Shes an ECE and has helped many children disabled or not). It's a good way to show them how to KEEP it in the toilet lol
Interesting fact about the "godfather contract": In Germany you have to be catholic to become the godmother/godfather of a child. Didn't know it until a friend of mine was asked to become the godmother of her nephew. Had to get baptized and everything.
Catholic Church: how are we going to get our numbers up with the birth rates, marriage rates, and missionary conversion rates so low? I know! Force the godparents to convert to still be on good terms with their friends. Genius!
@@damekkoDark Yeah. It’s a common misconception that the “godparent” is the one the parents trust with guardianship of the child if they die. It isn’t (and it’s not binding in a court of law either). It’s supposed to the the one the parents trust their child’s spiritual upbringing to if they are unable whether because of death or something else. So through that lens…yeah, being a Catholic is a logical requirement to be the godparent of a Catholic. That’s why, despite what we say around the kids, I’m officially my nephew’s godparent but my husband is officially a “christian witness”. That monetary gift requirement though…
@@Cyannas it might depend on the church(my friend had to take some lessons? while I just got a quick explanation right before the ceremony) but it always involve religion lol the whole contract bit is absolutely insane
Free "hotel" story: I recently retired and moved over 1,000 miles away to a home near a famous oceanside tourist destination. I've had a few former co-workers say they should come down to visit "me". Funny thing is, when I lived 10 miles from them, I never received an invitation to their house for dinner or a BBQ, but they now want to use my house as their free bed and breakfast. Sorry, all booked up!
Sacred hospitality has expectations for both the host and the guest. The host graciously provides hospitality, and the guest graciously and prominently appreciates the hospitality. The guest who complains about the hospitality has broken the circle dance of mutual grace, and is therefore no longer entitled to hospitality (or any other grace) from anyone.

In all for staying with friends or family when traveling, but in fine with sleeping on the floor/couch as not to displace anyone and try to be a good house guest helping clean up after myself, keep up with the extra house work of having a guest, and just make things easier in general for whose house I'm invading...
I agree! But at the very least pitch in some money for the added groceries and/or help with the chores around the house. I think that’s the least someone should do! Please, note that I believe that this is what a guest should do on his own accord without being told to, I’m all for hosting friends and family for free without making them do anything!
I remember the time my brother brought his family to Southern California... they basically told me like a week before if I remember right, and decided they could sleep on our living room floor (tiny California apartment, aka the only kind anyone can afford). Yeah... We let them but it was awkward as hell. And the hilarious bit is that he's a staunch Republican and Trump supporter. Guess it's "everyone needs to pull their own weight" until you want free lodging for a night. Y'know, a couple of years ago, we were talking about refugees coming to the US and I said I thought the kind thing was to help people fleeing a bad situation (like a freaking war) and his response was to ask whether I'd let them stay in my house. Looked all smug. I wish I was quicker responding because I finally have the comeback: "Why not? I let you. Can't be much worse and they actually need it."
"It's not for me it's for my two year old daughter who doesn't have the cognitive ability to care if she sees Marilyn Manson and will probably just cry because of how loud it is anyway. So yeah it's totally NOT for me at all. Stop being selfish."
I'd have noped right out of that. As an ex-Catholic/current atheist, I'd decline to be someone's godfather anyway and suggest to the parents that they'd probably want someone immersed in the religion. But the contract thing is utterly ridiculous.
Carpool story: I'd assume that the parents who didn't chime in in the group chat thought OP was entitled to say no, but weren't brave enough to tell Karen to back off.
I can't get over that mother that wants the parent of the carpool to get up extra early so her daughter can socialize in the morning. Who the hell does that? A four year old still in diapers? Ohmygod that's a no a hell no for me.
I wanted to go to Marilyn Manson concert with a friend when I was just 12. My mother wasn't *entirely* against it knowing I was hyped, but still advised me not to. When I and her together learned about pros and cons, I in the end was a young teenager who was glad she listened to her mom. At times like that I feel lucky my mother was (and still is 15 years later!) the person she was and raised me the way she did.
The godparent story hit close to home. I was asked to be a godparent to my cousins 7th child, as I was in the hospital getting over a very severe miscarriage. Since I’ve been out of the hospital he has lived with me. My husband buys his clothes, his milk, we are literally raising him with no help. He stays with us 24/7 and she only comes and gets him for a night or two every couple of months. She’ll come by and visit every couple of weeks to just hold him and take pictures of him to post online. He even misses some of his doctors appointments Bc she won’t take him and she won’t call the doctor to let them know that I’m allowed to take him. It’s a very stressful situation but I can’t just “give him back” Bc it’s been a year now and I love him like he’s my son.
Depending where you live you might want to look into child care and abandonment law...? I mean I'm glad that you love them and I'm not saying you should get rid of them but it sounds like the bio mom is treating the kid like an accessory. She can't even be bothered to tell the doctors you can bring the kid in? That would take one phone call or visit at most. You might want to consider asking her for full custody at some point if you don't think she'll flip out over it.
okay so like, as a Catholic, I'm just laughing at the godfather thing like??? dude you CAN'T be a Catholic godfather without being a baptized and confirmed Catholic due to all the religious duties it entails and that takes a While, so this guy would have to put his daughter's baptism on hold for a couple years. On top of that, if you showed this contract to any priest they would either a) be outraged the father didn't include tithe to the church in the contract (the bad priests) or b) suggest the father take classes on reaffirming his faith because that whole contract is so far out of line with Catholic values Jesus would cry
I’m catholic and my godmother is atheist (maybe Anglican?), so that’s not a strict requirement but that depends on your community and probably local church/priest. But yeah, contract would have those outcomes. Feels like this couple would be the one where the husband throws the Pope of the Vatican because the wife was committing adultery with him (then presumably doing confession)
Honestly, I think even the bad priests I know would have thought that contract was over the line. But ya, your comment is spot on, that is not was a god parent is meant to be.

I do sewing commissions and when I mail out finished products, I put a lot of effort into the packaging. Lots of stickers and doodles on the packaging, everything is wrapped up nicely, a hand written thank you card, and I generally include some sweets and candy. If I know the person I'm sending it to, I try and send their favorite candy. If they live outside of Canada, I"ll send them some Canadian candies. This is always a surprise that I never tell clients about and they're always over the moon to get these goodies. But I cannot imagine having a client come to me and say "you sent me a kitkat and I don't like those, so can I send it back to you and then you send me a coffee crisp?"
The godfather one reminded me of something I learned in a Spanish Social Issues class. For some Spanish speaking countries the title of godfather is huge and the godparents are expected to take care of the child financially, not entirely but they have to do some of the things listed in that contract.They also are secondary care takers for the children, it was a bit of a culture shock when I learned about that. Most Spanish speaking countries are also Catholic dominated so I have a feeling that this might be the country the friend a wife share in common.
😂😂you had my laying on the flood when you ended the story with “ my wife and I could come stay at your house for free and you could complain to me about the choosing beggars” 😂😂
Godfather story: at the start I can see a contract my own godfather God divorced and is atheist now.. But as it went on I got sicker and sicker listening to it.
I was pulling my hair when listening to the "pay us to be our daughter's babysitter for free" story. And he has the audacity to say that op is selfish?
The kinds of strangers who will babysit your kids because they love them and not because of the wages are not the kind of strangers you want watching you kids 😂
I have godparents, we're catholic, that's probably the only requirement of the deal. They were there at my christening that's it. I guess this guy must have really hated his "friend" to make up all these rules to make him an extra parent with full financial responsabilities. Did he think the kid was actually secretly his?
Wait.... Wait wait wait. Is that godfather story saying OP has to attend confession WITH Jane? And that they have to give Jane $500 for each time she goes, since it's one of the "events"?? 😳 Dude you could go to confession so often with that deal and get lots of money.

You deserve the growth you've had. Whenever it looks like feedback might have an emotional impact on the OP I've tracked them down to let them know there are people who care.
Meanwhile, neither of my God parents attended any of my "life events" past my baptism, so I honestly forgot about them and my parents have to remind me who they are, but seriously, why should I bother remembering them when it seems they don't bother to remember about me?
Actually it is weird as it sounds that isn’t abnormal being a godparent is a legally binding contract and many people have to sign legal documents to be listed as the godparent so that in the event that something happens to the real parents and no other live in Kin is nearby that you can take over care for the child full-time.
This must depend on the country/region it what it used to be. In America it isn't a legally binding contract to take custody of a kid. It's just a position of religious guidance and prayer. I could understand wanting the guys parent to take that role if the parents have no living relatives, but that contract would have still been completely out of line.
The sticker part cracked me up. I'm a frequent buyer of these high school kids who sell earrings online and one time when I got my order, I saw that I had an extra pair and I genuinely thought that they accidentally dropped someone else's earrings in there. I emailed them and they said that was a freebie for me because I was a frequent buyer. Seriously what's with the choosing beggars these days.
I'm 1000% sure that if anyone asked Marilyn Manson he'd confirm that his music and live performances are hardly appropriate for a 2-year old. Maybe in a decade or so 😁

As a Catholic: the person who requested OP to be godfather went against Catholic teachings on several points, firstly on selecting a non-Catholic, secondly on not discussing what being a godfather entailed, thirdly not giving OP a free choice as being a godparent for Catholics is akin to adoption.
Didn't know that kind of stuff was involved with being a godfather, when my bro had his kid he asked me if i wanted to be the godfather and that was it lol just come to celebrations and help out if something happens to him.

Honestly, he probably would have waited at the hospital with my husband while I was in surgery, but right now they only allow one person, so he couldn’t.
I don’t understand people that have kids, but then expect to foist them off on other people. Especially if they’re insisting that family/friends take care of their kids for free.

About 3 years ago my dad decided my, then 2 y/o daughter needed a play set. Found one that was only 3 years old, three swings, two slides, two story play house, and a bunch of add-ons. Because the owners just wanted it gone they were selling it for $300, contingent on buy disassembles, and transports it. So, we paid the $300, took it apart, piece by piece, took 3 trips hauling it to his house, and even paid the nice workmen who offered to help with the really heavy stuff $20 each. Dad sealed all the wood, cleaned the pieces, and then reassembled it in my backyard.
This set sold new for $2500. Grandpa won Christmas that year.
This made me aww and laugh, i didnt know what a play set or play house was until i turned 8 or 9 a few years ago
@@serenabrowne4517 my dad spoils her. I'm an only and she is an only, so I think now that he is in a very good financial position and, unlike when I was a kid, not moving ever couple years, he is spoiling her.

On the babysitting story: are the parents even trying to potty train? They said their 4 yo is in pull ups but didn’t mention to help them use the toilet or anything. Also it’s my understanding that kids should be potty trained by the time they’re 4. I mean my 2 yo wears pull ups, but if you’re not trying to potty train they’re just different diapers.
In the end, it depends on the child for when they're ready to be potty trained. If you try beforehand, prepare for lots of struggles and frustration. Once they've decided to use the toilet, you can generally get them mostly potty trained in a few weeks or so max I think? It's been a while since I was reading on this, but it's somewhere around that. However, if you try to force the kids to be potty trained it can take months or years before they are consistently using the potty. In hte end though, every human is different and potty training is no exception.
@@GryphStone I'll admit an element of truth to what you say but also there is an increasing problem of people not potty training their kids at all and just sending them to school and then being surprised when they're told to train them.
@@piyam5000 Seriously? I was potty trained late, but I was perfected long before school. Some babysitter insisted on putting a nighttime nappy on me because my parents forgot to tell her I'd stopped wearing them. I tried to say so but she wouldn't listen to me (yes, I have crazy long term memory).
@@piyam5000 aye, and that's why you want to make it appealing to be potty trained in the kids pov. For some it's the idea of not needing to wear diapers to bed, for others it's being 'big', and for others still it might take some rewards to help provide incentive. I was mostly trying to point out that it'd be nothing to worry about if all it is is a lack of potty training, and not a lack of reasons for the kid to want to be potty trained being provided.
@@GryphStone when you train kids to use the bathroom...you turn it into a game! My mom used cheerios as "targets" to help disabled boys aim properly. (Shes an ECE and has helped many children disabled or not). It's a good way to show them how to KEEP it in the toilet lol
Interesting fact about the "godfather contract": In Germany you have to be catholic to become the godmother/godfather of a child. Didn't know it until a friend of mine was asked to become the godmother of her nephew. Had to get baptized and everything.
Catholic Church: how are we going to get our numbers up with the birth rates, marriage rates, and missionary conversion rates so low? I know! Force the godparents to convert to still be on good terms with their friends. Genius!
I mean yeah, it's not like a fun uncle role, it's actually tied with religion hence "god" in the title
@@damekkoDark Yeah. It’s a common misconception that the “godparent” is the one the parents trust with guardianship of the child if they die. It isn’t (and it’s not binding in a court of law either). It’s supposed to the the one the parents trust their child’s spiritual upbringing to if they are unable whether because of death or something else. So through that lens…yeah, being a Catholic is a logical requirement to be the godparent of a Catholic. That’s why, despite what we say around the kids, I’m officially my nephew’s godparent but my husband is officially a “christian witness”.
That monetary gift requirement though…
@@Cyannas it might depend on the church(my friend had to take some lessons? while I just got a quick explanation right before the ceremony) but it always involve religion lol
the whole contract bit is absolutely insane
Same in Canada. I think it's the same everywhere, basically but some people simply chose to make it "unofficial" in the church's eyes.
Free "hotel" story: I recently retired and moved over 1,000 miles away to a home near a famous oceanside tourist destination. I've had a few former co-workers say they should come down to visit "me". Funny thing is, when I lived 10 miles from them, I never received an invitation to their house for dinner or a BBQ, but they now want to use my house as their free bed and breakfast. Sorry, all booked up!
Sacred hospitality has expectations for both the host and the guest. The host graciously provides hospitality, and the guest graciously and prominently appreciates the hospitality. The guest who complains about the hospitality has broken the circle dance of mutual grace, and is therefore no longer entitled to hospitality (or any other grace) from anyone.
When Trump talked about "the worst deals", this is the type of deals he should've been talking about and not the ones that were actually profitable for both sides.
To be fair the US has been a big part of China's rise. It's more a matter of import export imbalances than bad deals.

In all for staying with friends or family when traveling, but in fine with sleeping on the floor/couch as not to displace anyone and try to be a good house guest helping clean up after myself, keep up with the extra house work of having a guest, and just make things easier in general for whose house I'm invading...
I agree! But at the very least pitch in some money for the added groceries and/or help with the chores around the house. I think that’s the least someone should do!
Please, note that I believe that this is what a guest should do on his own accord without being told to, I’m all for hosting friends and family for free without making them do anything!
Also, bring a gift! Especially if they won't accept money, like my family.
I remember the time my brother brought his family to Southern California... they basically told me like a week before if I remember right, and decided they could sleep on our living room floor (tiny California apartment, aka the only kind anyone can afford). Yeah... We let them but it was awkward as hell. And the hilarious bit is that he's a staunch Republican and Trump supporter. Guess it's "everyone needs to pull their own weight" until you want free lodging for a night.
Y'know, a couple of years ago, we were talking about refugees coming to the US and I said I thought the kind thing was to help people fleeing a bad situation (like a freaking war) and his response was to ask whether I'd let them stay in my house. Looked all smug. I wish I was quicker responding because I finally have the comeback: "Why not? I let you. Can't be much worse and they actually need it."
"It's not for me it's for my two year old daughter who doesn't have the cognitive ability to care if she sees Marilyn Manson and will probably just cry because of how loud it is anyway. So yeah it's totally NOT for me at all. Stop being selfish."
As for that Godfather Story...
This has been the worst trade deal in the history of trade deals, maybe ever.
I'd have noped right out of that. As an ex-Catholic/current atheist, I'd decline to be someone's godfather anyway and suggest to the parents that they'd probably want someone immersed in the religion. But the contract thing is utterly ridiculous.
I cant express the stoke of me receiving free stickers with an order. I'm always grateful

Carpool story: I'd assume that the parents who didn't chime in in the group chat thought OP was entitled to say no, but weren't brave enough to tell Karen to back off.

Parents need to stop vlogging their daily lives and their kids lives no excuses or complaints
I wanted to go to Marilyn Manson concert with a friend when I was just 12. My mother wasn't *entirely* against it knowing I was hyped, but still advised me not to.
When I and her together learned about pros and cons, I in the end was a young teenager who was glad she listened to her mom.
At times like that I feel lucky my mother was (and still is 15 years later!) the person she was and raised me the way she did.
The godparent story hit close to home. I was asked to be a godparent to my cousins 7th child, as I was in the hospital getting over a very severe miscarriage. Since I’ve been out of the hospital he has lived with me. My husband buys his clothes, his milk, we are literally raising him with no help. He stays with us 24/7 and she only comes and gets him for a night or two every couple of months. She’ll come by and visit every couple of weeks to just hold him and take pictures of him to post online. He even misses some of his doctors appointments Bc she won’t take him and she won’t call the doctor to let them know that I’m allowed to take him. It’s a very stressful situation but I can’t just “give him back” Bc it’s been a year now and I love him like he’s my son.
Depending where you live you might want to look into child care and abandonment law...? I mean I'm glad that you love them and I'm not saying you should get rid of them but it sounds like the bio mom is treating the kid like an accessory. She can't even be bothered to tell the doctors you can bring the kid in? That would take one phone call or visit at most. You might want to consider asking her for full custody at some point if you don't think she'll flip out over it.

okay so like, as a Catholic, I'm just laughing at the godfather thing like??? dude you CAN'T be a Catholic godfather without being a baptized and confirmed Catholic due to all the religious duties it entails and that takes a While, so this guy would have to put his daughter's baptism on hold for a couple years. On top of that, if you showed this contract to any priest they would either a) be outraged the father didn't include tithe to the church in the contract (the bad priests) or b) suggest the father take classes on reaffirming his faith because that whole contract is so far out of line with Catholic values Jesus would cry
I'm Catholic too and the Priest would suggest that if they do want to become the godfather that they'll need to be baptized in the Catholic Church
I’m catholic and my godmother is atheist (maybe Anglican?), so that’s not a strict requirement but that depends on your community and probably local church/priest. But yeah, contract would have those outcomes. Feels like this couple would be the one where the husband throws the Pope of the Vatican because the wife was committing adultery with him (then presumably doing confession)
Honestly, I think even the bad priests I know would have thought that contract was over the line.
But ya, your comment is spot on, that is not was a god parent is meant to be.
0:46 who takes a 2 YO to a rock concert, and baby who is at a state where they're uncomfortable with load noises, and will probably be crying throughout the whole concert, do people actually think that's a good idea
I do sewing commissions and when I mail out finished products, I put a lot of effort into the packaging. Lots of stickers and doodles on the packaging, everything is wrapped up nicely, a hand written thank you card, and I generally include some sweets and candy. If I know the person I'm sending it to, I try and send their favorite candy. If they live outside of Canada, I"ll send them some Canadian candies. This is always a surprise that I never tell clients about and they're always over the moon to get these goodies. But I cannot imagine having a client come to me and say "you sent me a kitkat and I don't like those, so can I send it back to you and then you send me a coffee crisp?"
The godfather one reminded me of something I learned in a Spanish Social Issues class. For some Spanish speaking countries the title of godfather is huge and the godparents are expected to take care of the child financially, not entirely but they have to do some of the things listed in that contract.They also are secondary care takers for the children, it was a bit of a culture shock when I learned about that. Most Spanish speaking countries are also Catholic dominated so I have a feeling that this might be the country the friend a wife share in common.

I have godparents, we're catholic, that's probably the only requirement of the deal. They were there at my christening that's it.

Wait.... Wait wait wait. Is that godfather story saying OP has to attend confession WITH Jane? And that they have to give Jane $500 for each time she goes, since it's one of the "events"?? 😳 Dude you could go to confession so often with that deal and get lots of money.

Meanwhile, neither of my God parents attended any of my "life events" past my baptism, so I honestly forgot about them and my parents have to remind me who they are, but seriously, why should I bother remembering them when it seems they don't bother to remember about me?
Imagine having to pay to babysit a child 😂😂😂😂 what a joke
Well the babysitter wouldn’t be elbow deep in poop for free. Karen said it would be 15$/hour! 😂
Actually it is weird as it sounds that isn’t abnormal being a godparent is a legally binding contract and many people have to sign legal documents to be listed as the godparent so that in the event that something happens to the real parents and no other live in Kin is nearby that you can take over care for the child full-time.
This must depend on the country/region it what it used to be. In America it isn't a legally binding contract to take custody of a kid. It's just a position of religious guidance and prayer.
I could understand wanting the guys parent to take that role if the parents have no living relatives, but that contract would have still been completely out of line.
🤣🤣🤣 the last one killed me. I'm using that the next time I get a scammer contacting me
The freeloaders story is why you should have a barn.

The sticker part cracked me up.

As a Catholic: the person who requested OP to be godfather went against Catholic teachings on several points, firstly on selecting a non-Catholic, secondly on not discussing what being a godfather entailed, thirdly not giving OP a free choice as being a godparent for Catholics is akin to adoption.
