Do you know any reliable handyman in South Bay ？
My house is getting a little bit damaged and I would like to repair it. （ It is not an emergency ）

I would be happy to speak Japanese if possible, but English is also fine.
I would like to meet someone who is reliable ・ rather than just cheap.

Please share information, thank you.

I feel a little uncomfortable. Personally, I think "watashi" is appropriate for the first person of an elderly man … It depends on the region ？ Some people used to say "hagare" (toilets) such as "oira", "wai", "waiha", etc. ？ I think it is a little strange to use the first person of an elderly man.

I want to seek recognition and child support from the father of my child who is unmarried and resides in Hawaii.

Problem / Need advice

  • 2024/07/24 23:03

I am a Japanese living in Japan and I am pregnant with a 14 week old child.
The father of the child is an American living in Hawaii.
I was in a relationship with him, but when he found out I had a child, he said he would raise it and that he loved me
but eventually ran away.
So at the very least, I am going to force him to acknowledge and pay child support and raise the child on my own.

I know what to do under Japanese law, but
does anyone know if it is possible for a Japanese living in Japan to use Hawaii's child support authorities
to make the American father pay ？
child support? 966> I would like to know if you have any other good information or advice ・ ・ ・.

I believe that you must be a continuous resident of the State of Hawaii in order to be eligible to file an application with the court. In other words, if you hold a visa and pay taxes to the State of Hawaii, you may be eligible to receive services from the State of Hawaii. This is similar to the fact that a foreigner cannot apply to a Japanese court for legal action under Japanese law without permission. If you hire an attorney who specializes in Hawaii family law, it may be possible to negotiate and produce an agreement without going through the courts, but I feel that in this type of case, there is a very high possibility that you will pay a lot of money to an attorney and not see any results.

Hello, Ayachin-san
I wrote to you because I don't think it is someone else's problem.
I think it is possible for Ayachin-san to get child support.
In fact, there was a woman in Japan who was pregnant with her ex-boyfriend who was in the U.S. military in Japan, and she got it even though he went back to the U.S. It was on the news. It was on the news.
However, it would be better to hire a lawyer, but since there is a precedent for this, it should be quite certain and safe.
I'm rooting for you.

I am also unmarried, pregnant, and gave birth in Hawaii, so I may be able to provide some information.
I am happy to help if I can, as I too have been through a very difficult time.

The man is so used to cheating Japanese women that
he will probably get away with it.
So, you should abandon the idea of getting child support. So, it is better to abandon the idea of getting child support.
Instead of that kind of thinking, it is better to claim for compensation in a lawsuit that you have been mentally and physically injured.
Do you have a photo of the other person, his/her real name and date of birth, socials, etc. ？?

Thank you all for your comments. Your warm comments have been very comforting. I am well aware that I am selfish and will cause my children to feel sorry for me.
I don't know how many times I blamed myself for that and wanted to end it all.

However, I believe that there are children in the world who have a good life with a good father.
If you say I am just looking down on you, that's all, but I am ready to love and take good care of my children for their fathers.
That's why I posted this way, to think about what I can do for my children and to borrow your knowledge.

I received a reply today from a child support agency in Hawaii that even I can use their support.
It will be a long term process and it will be hard, but I am so glad that I thought it was worth it to let my child know that a father exists.

Thank you so much for pushing me back.

I once ， saw a case of an Okinawan woman who received child support in a similar case, so I Serch searched and found it.
A woman in her 20s sought child support for a child born to a U.S. soldier
and was granted ， child support by a court order in the U.S. state of Hawaii after locating the missing U.S. soldier.
The Ryukyu Shimpo dated 12/06/20
The support group is Woman's Pride (Chatan, Okinawa Prefecture)
Representative: Misaki Smith
070-5692-3899
The woman had a DNA test and was able to receive child support payments until her child turned 18.
You are almost there. Your baby will surely be a nutrient that will give you Energy.
You must have been very worried. What she needs now ， is compassion. She was cheated by cheaters. So, please stop criticizing Japanese women. It happens in every country.
Please give me your positive opinion for her and her baby.

If you have a bicycle shop nearby, you might ask them.

About where you can play badminton in Honolulu

Question

Nice to meet you, my name is Azuki.
I am looking for a place to play badminton in Honolulu.

I would like to
・Honolulu area
・Indoor facilities （ Clubs are fine ）
・Hours until around 6:00p.m.（ We do not have a car, we travel by bus and train, and would like to avoid traveling at night which can be dangerous ）
・Private rental places （ We are not thinking of renting out one court, etc. ）
We are not interested in renting out a court

We could not find a gymnasium etc. to rent on the internet, and the clubs only allow participation until 9:00p.m., etc., which is late, so we gave up on the idea. I had given up on it because it seemed that I could only join the club during late hours, such as until 9:00p.m.

If you have any advice or information, I would like to know 🙇🏼

Thank you.

There is a Honolulu ・ Badminton ・ Club in Kalihi.
https://honolulubadminton.com/
The web only lists an evening schedule, but I believe they only run Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings from about 9am to noon.

There are other days of the week where the gym is open as badminton days, but I think they were all evening hours.

You can find some on Google using keywords like Honolulu, badminton, etc. I recently got back into it and started playing at https://honolulubadminton.com/. I myself am not young anymore and I do it for my health, but there are informal sessions on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings where we play games, mostly seniors. Non-members are about ＄ 17 at a time. The other rule seems to be to bring your own shuttle. By the way, I don't have a car as well, so this club is convenient for me as I can take the bus there and back during the light hours.

I just wanted to play and asked a friend who plays every week and she said that you can play every Monday from 6pm to 8pm at McCully （ Community Center ？ ） without pre-registration. but it doesn't quite fit with the time you would like to play. I shared this in case you are available to play later in the day. I hope you find a good spot.

Nice to meet you.
Southern California is a homemaker living in Orange County.

My daughter is in 11th grade and will be going to Stanford, UC Berkeley, and UC Davis for college previews.
At first, we had booked a hotel at the Hilton in downtown San Francisco, but
an acquaintance told us not to go downtown because it was unsafe and dangerous, so
we booked a hotel in San Mateo.

Since it was spring break, I wanted to visit the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman's Wharf,
Alcatraz Island, etc. during my preview of the university, but another acquaintance told me
that the area around San Francisco is very unsafe now. I was told that the area around San Francisco is very unsafe right now and that it would be better not to go there in my car as well.
He said it would be better to rent a car because they break your windows during the two hours you are eating in a restaurant. I would appreciate any information from those of you who live in the San Francisco area regarding security.
How do you prevent against car break-ins, etc. （ I know the basic premise is to not leave things in the car in the first place. ）
By the way, the car we are going to is Mercedez Benz GLS450.
It is equipped with an in-car camera and the glass is smoked.

Please do not hesitate to contact me.

The city of San Francisco is not safe, so I think staying in the South Bay is the right choice, especially if you and your daughter are together.
If you park on the street, there is a high probability that your car will be vandalized, so it is safer to park indoors or take an Uber or lift instead of driving yourself.
By the way, even if you report a car vandalism, it is basically not taken care of, and it seems that the police act less than 5% of the time.

Sister-in-law owns several houses worth millions

Uses cell phone and car until they break
Leaves broken doorknobs in place
Microwave oven is not cleaned well and smells of mold
Lives in a huge stupid house but never asks for cleaning
family members share the care of mother-in-law
use day care for the elderly
ask for care givers several times, but they order a lot and pay poorly
family members cancel on days they need help
and get smoked by the agency
only buy items on sale and use them for years always share one less dish than the number of people in a restaurant
only drink water

wonder why they are living like this when they have money
all the loans are not paid off and they are cash poor
now retired at 60, they are using retirement money to pay their bills
I found myself with a 62 year old sister-in-law
I guess she will die when the loans are paid

I guess I will never be free from my attachment to money
Even if I have hundreds of millions, I will die with the fear that my wealth will diminish.

Cash poor person in #13, maybe he bought real estate when it was expensive （ e.g. last year ） and is unable to sell even if he wanted to.
Just reading the first two lines, I knew this was being chased for a loan.
If he bought when it was cheap, maybe he's looking to go up more and make more money ？ Then he's pretty stingy.
