Exactly. The HOA gave up the rule already and can’t enforce it now just because the child is growing up. They allowed the child in already. Should be a done deal unless there was an agreement about how long or to what age the child could live there.
I was just about to say that! I remember, years ago here in NY, when I still lived in the City, that the new owner of what could only be termed an abandoned building, wanted to tear it down and build something new that he could offer for rental units.
Well...it seems that some bums had taken up residence in said building, and took the owner to court, saying that since he didn’t start eviction proceedings as soon as he learned about their presence, they had “implied consent” for them to stay there. It took years to sort it out, but here’s the kicker: the reason the owner didn’t start the proceedings was to give the bums time to find somewhere else to go. The bums won the case because the owner warned them in advance that the building was to be demolished.
So...the poor sucker who wanted to be nice, got fleeced by our judicial system. That’ll teach him!
