I worked at several casual jobs until I could afford to travel and I flew to London with the promise of a job there.

I left the farm for good and headed to the city to seek whatever came my way. When I returned to the family farm, it was obvious that my father and I still could not work together. This was a period of adventure and personal development which has provided many of the anecdotes I have related here. After a period on the farm, I found that I was unable to work amicably with my father and I took my leave.įor two years I crewed on two different yachts in the Pacific and Indonesian waters. When I was sufficiently qualified, I began work with my father on the family farm in the Waikato region. I worked on differing types of farms in New Zealand, followed by a stint in Australia, working on broadacre farming techniques.

My parents conceded and I left school with the intention to go farming. Upon leaving school, my parents had tertiary education in mind for me I had in mind joining the workforce. It was a dramatic change and, along with my regular studies, I learnt to be independent and to think for myself. I helped my father when I could, spraying the orchards, harvesting, making hay and I attended a country school and mixed with local Maori families.Īged eleven I went to Boarding School in Auckland. Everyone worked together to rebuild their lives and looked to the future. It was a carefree time for children, whose parents were finally happy that the war was over. Even after she lost custody of all her children again, California still paid her.The fifties in New Zealand were glory days. She moved us to South Carolina which doesn't have CS through the state, at least at the time, so he paid the SC child support with a check every month, unbeknownst to him California was still paying child support too because it was an automatic system that just paid out every month. My dad lived and worked in Louisiana, the cost of living is so much cheaper there, he can't afford California child support. California didn't care, he pays for all 4 children. The two younger children aren't his so he shouldn't be paying for them, DNA test to prove it. When my father found out he appealed, he had primary of my sister and I, she kidnapped us. California paid the money out to my mother every month. They proceeded without him so she added her younger 2 kids, who were not his, to the child support case so she'd get double the money. Anyways no one informed my father of a child support case in California. This was after she kidnapped us when my father got custody of us in MS, there's a hint of how bad she was a southern red state took custody away from the mother. My mother filed for child support in the California while my father lived in Louisiana.
