## Resource

Adam Sandler really wanted a kid. Too bad everything he does is legally unhinged. In this episode of Let’s Ruin It , the lawyers break down 1999’s Big Daddy and find a custody case full of fake names, court orders, stalking, fraud, and deeply questionable food bribery. We cover: Illegal adoption tactics Identity fraud & lying to social services Whether McDonald's breakfast is a human right The legality of letting a child pee on a building Child endangerment through street hockey and Hooters And why Jon Stewart’s character should’ve gone to jail, too 🎙️ It’s a lesson in what not to do if you find a random kid on your doorstep.
