A quick definition of delinquent:

Delinquent: When someone doesn't do something they were supposed to do, it's called being delinquent. This can mean not paying money that they owe, like rent or taxes, or doing something that is against the law, like committing a crime.

A more thorough explanation:

The word delinquent can have different meanings in the context of law:

When a person or entity fails to fulfill an obligation, they are considered delinquent. For example:

  • A tenant who doesn't pay their rent on time is delinquent in rental payments.
  • A company that doesn't repay a loan on time is delinquent in loan repayments.

These examples illustrate how a person or entity can be considered delinquent for not fulfilling their financial obligations.

A person who commits a crime is also considered delinquent. For example:

  • A teenager who steals from a store is a juvenile delinquent.
  • An adult who commits fraud is a delinquent.

These examples show how a person who breaks the law can be labeled as delinquent.

An obligation that is past due or unperformed is also considered delinquent. For example:

  • A tax that hasn't been paid on time is a delinquent tax.
  • A payment that hasn't been made on time is a delinquent payment.

These examples demonstrate how an obligation that is not fulfilled on time can be considered delinquent.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.

Yeah, my life really does flow in about 5 years periods.
