In reply to the discussion: AP: Ex-wife says former SC Gov. Sanford trespassed [View all]riderinthestorm
(23,272 posts)66. He violated a court order! Of course she took him to court! He's willfully thumbing his nose at
the decision of the judge.
There's no dispute that he's done it before. Clearly Jenny Sanford drew the line after numerous violations. I have no problem with that.
You are also assuming the 14 year old wanted his Dad there. Dad may have been forcing his presence on a kid (and most 14 year old teens DON'T want to hang around with their parent) and that's why Jenny Sanford finally said enough.
Regardless, he is willfully thumbing his nose at the court. Its all of a piece of his complete disregard for the "rules" and how they don't apply to him. If anyone is acting like a self-entitled rich prat, its him.
Good riddance.
