[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 2097374, member: 1294"] I was told force/coercion is subjective in the psych/emotional, consent under duress is hard to prove, promises are meaningless without a contract, moral obligations are not enforceable(unless it's state controlled child support), and "Caveat emptor", especially with family. Hypothetical; You tell me you're going to borrow $500 to fix your car and I convince/coerce you (you trust me) instead to sell the car (I wanted the car and if I can't have it I don't want you to) by telling you there's [B]no other choice[/B] and that I'll take care of driving you to work etc. but fail to do so causing you to be fired and have no food in the fridge have I violated your rights? Is force against me then justified? P.S. I'm sorry if the question was out of line. I'm not asking for legal advice or trying to get you to "work for free", only asking your opinion. [/QUOTE]
