I call a 23-year-old man an adult.
I lied today. Someone asked me how many children I had. I said "four". I should have said "none" because all my children -- there I go again -- I mean all my offspring are adults.
lol...That should be the end of that. Nobody was saying he was a child. Just that he was their child.
If you can't understand that, there is no hope for you...

Technically since they asked how many children you had (past tense), it is accurate to list your offspring who are no longer children. You have zero children. You had four children. Your answer was accurate given the phrasing of the question.
Sure, but also no.
If he was talking to someone and mentioned his daughter. They may follow up at some point with "How many children do you have?" Them knowing full well all his children are likely grown(which is something he may say, "I have four children, whom are all grown...24, 27, 28, 32.)
And some of his kids may have kids of their own. He wouldn't say "My adults have a few kids." Instead he may say, "One of my children just had a kid."
I wouldn't encourage using "son" or "daughter", it's not very inclusive. Instead use "An organism my partner and I birthed, recently developed a parasitic infection." translation..."My daughter is pregnant."
Children, can we get back to more important topics like Laundrie‘s shenanigans?
There’s some speculation that he shot himself in the head (no gun found though) given that the skull was fragmented. As for his bones-only remains, it seems like gators and crabs are prime suspects for slurping his flesh clean.

The lack of a gun makes a self inflicted gunshot less likely I guess but that was my first thought. We may never know the cause of death.
As to the creatures out there, as mentioned in another post, wild pig can be the biggest flesh eaters out there. They will eat anything and they are plentiful in those parts.

If it was Laundrie, and there's significant doubt about that (people have seen him in Belize as recently as yesterday), a better question is WHY the police aren't looking for the person who killed the other five bodies found in the swap. So that makes six dead bodies and case closed? Sounds like there's a serial killer on the loose in that area, but let's sweep it under the rug.
Still waiting for an official explanation of how the body was underwater but the notebook full of "evidence" somehow survived being submerged for weeks and is completely legible.

There are millions of guys who look just like him.
I've lived in Belize and that's not where I'd go to disappear. Too small. Everyone knows you. I suppose if you keep moving like a perpetual tourist, you might not get noticed.
The police, and there are very few of them, would look the other way and leave you alone even if they suspected who you were, but if the US marshals showed up, they could track you down pretty quickly.

You'll need another handle. The other bodies were found in various locations in the US not in the swamp.

I thought it was clear that I was trolling that one idiot. Everyone who speaks English and is not an idiot knows that "child" can refer to adult offspring. From the dictionary:
child
noun [ C ]
US /tʃaɪld/ UK /tʃaɪld/
plural children US/ˈtʃɪl.drən/ UK/ˈtʃɪl.drən/
A1
a boy or girl from the time of birth until he or she is an adult, or a son or daughter of any age:
an eight-year-old child
As a child I didn't eat vegetables.
A small group of children waited outside the door.
Both her children are now married with children of their own.
Jan is married with three young children.
I’m guessing his death by suicide is not news to his parents. Apparently, they had turned over all but one of their family’s guns to the FBI, so presumably he carried the remaining one with him and they knew he might kill himself.
Sure, he shot himself in the face but apparently left all his teeth alone so they could compare to dental records.
No one has ever explained how this body mysteriously showed up in an area that had previously been searched. They claimed it was underwater, but also stated a journal was found nearby. What kind of journal survives underwater? Nevermind the fact that a shot to the head plus being in a swap for two weeks underwater should mean that ID'ing the body would be nearly impossible.
Add to this the rumors that he's been seen within the last week in both Costa Rica and Guatemala.
The fix is in. Wake up, sheeple.
Chandra Levy died in Rock Creek Park in DC in May 2001.
Police searched their shortly after she went missing.
They didn’t find her.
A full year later, a man walking his dog in that same park came across her body, which had been there the whole time.
This was a national story because she had an affair with a Congressman and the media attention and search focused on him.
Eventually, a man who was already guilty of similar murders was tried and convicted of her murder.
The conviction was reversed on appeal.
Point is, there was an intense search and focus on finding her and she was only found much later by accident.

He’s in Belize. He’s in Belize.

Because you’ve never been in a swamp so you don’t understand the ecology. There is some unusual pieces to the case, but you didn’t mention one. And I already did mention them much earlier in the thread. It’s very sad Gabbie was a raging lunatic and drove her bf to kill himself.

They had her in a deep freeze for months and months.

Well, who killed him?
"Laundrie's skeletal remains were found in a thickly wooded area in the Carlton Reserve in Sarasota County in October, according to the medical examiner's report, and had been under "up to three feet and possibly more" of water for an extended period of time before being located."
"In the notebook found with his remains, Laundrie wrote he was responsible for Gabby Petito's death, according to the FBI."
Still with the garbage about the magic notebook that survived three weeks underwater and was completely legible.
Wake up!
Civil suit filed. Gal's parents suing dude's parents.
I was unaware that parents could be held financially and otherwise responsible for the actions of their fully grown, adult children.
Suing the parents for six figures? God, does anybody in that town work for a living?
