Yes, I'm new, and I'm sure it is a term of art. BUT WHERE THE HECK ELSE DO KIDS LIVE?? Home is by definition where you live!

Wouldn't it be easier to say "Yes, They live with me"

I've been reading this for a while now and even though the concept is clear, the literal redundancy is maddening.

Ok. I'm done. Thanks for listening.

I love your terminology! Your use of the words, "...literary redundancy..." is absolute beautiful!

i think it infers "at home with me" also too, maybe it's an older kid who lives off at school, but during breaks comes home to live. *shrug* i gotta take a shower, peace

i think it would mean that they don't live in the home of the person with the profile.

while it's the CHILD's home, it's not the parent's.

Think about it. Some people have kids that are grown and gone, aka out of the house, and others have some at home. It just happens that I have one of each. It's not as ridiculous as you might think.

ever thought that being anally retentive and unable to accept that others may be fallable, may have caused a relationship breakdown in the first place??
