It gets sad when it gets to the point where family members are suing each other especially parent and child

[tls]

When JJ tells you to shut up; you need to follow her request because that means she's creating a case in your favour.

[claudiggah]

That daughter has so much sadness and issues. That mother was not there for her. I wonder how she is doing.

[LunnaJannah]

I remember watching her as a teen… now I’m a middle aged woman. I adore this freaking woman. She’s amazing. Logical, respectful, incredibly intelligent and carry’s herself with class. And damn when she says shhhh or shut up I’m like yes mam. I would have loved her as a role model growing up. What a woman.

I used to think JJ was mean when I was younger because she didn’t let people finish speaking and tell their side. As an adult, I can see now that she could tell a liar when she saw one.

[JasonGafar]

When judge judy said she didn't believe the mother for sending her son to live with her father due to educational reasons, I rejoiced. So glad Judge Judy didn't buy that lie

[susannah]

Cannot afford electricity but has 4 kids - duh !!

[kennethmarrow]

It must be so satisfying to suggest someone is a liar and they have to accept it?!

[shrutefarms]

Birth control and accountability go a long way🙄

[kleigh]

DOES NO ONE HAVE TO WORK ANYMORE?!?!?!??!

[RepentAndBelieve]

I had that literal exact same jacket that the daughter is wearing lol wow.

[shaindyhorowitz]

No one gives up raising their own 10 year child living for 'educational purposes'.

[averyames]

This case made me sad for them both. Two very broken people in a cycle- sad

[keithfreitas]

Sad that the Welfare System creates no responsibility for financial support by either parent of a child.

[KaristaJade]

When she said that her mom offered to help her that is bullshit. When you call someone regardless if they are a friend or a family member and you complain about your financial situation that is basically a hint of asking for help. And when people help you with your said financial situation that means that they got the hint. they didn’t offer, they just understood the hint

[sugarshamrock]

The programs that help those get back to work almost discourages them working more when they receive a good amount already. Why would they do better and lose their benefits!?

[Cupiddagoat]

The fact that y’all sueing y’all family members is beyond me

[joella]

Judge Judy, why don't you ever ask how a person becomes disabled? I worked at an understaffed hospital and a patient was beginning to fall. I rushed to try to keep him from falling and breaking his hip. He fell on me and not the floor. Several surgeries later, 7 to be exact, I am unable to perform mundane duties and in pain 24/7. Don't you feel that the hospital that was understaffed should be paying my income? Instead, you think everyone is cheating the system. Sometimes you are correct but it is sad that an educated woman like stereotypes everyone. Some days, I wish I would have let the patient fall. At least, his family could have sued on his behalf.

Something my Finances teacher told me that stuck with me;
"Most people are poor, not because they are challenged in some way, or just work at a dead-end McJob, but because they are bad at managing their money."

[tokyobrandon]

why do you make 4 children when you can't pay your electricity bill?
