Read a random definition: freedom of disposition

A quick definition of child-sexual-abuse accommodation syndrome:

Child-sexual-abuse accommodation syndrome is a term used to describe a supposed medical and psychological condition of a child who has suffered repeated instances of sexual abuse, usually from a relative or family friend. However, this so-called "syndrome" has been rejected by the scientific community because it cannot be validated and cannot distinguish between abuse and non-abuse cases. It is also known as child-sexual-abuse syndrome.

A child's income tax is a charge imposed by the government on a person, entity, transaction, or property to yield public revenue. It is a monetary contribution from persons and property, levied by the state by virtue of its sovereignty for the support of government and for all public needs. Taxes are enforced proportional contributions that can be payable in money or other forms. The kiddie tax is a type of child's income tax.

A more thorough explanation:

Child-sexual-abuse accommodation syndrome refers to the supposed medical and psychological condition of a child who has suffered repeated instances of sexual abuse, usually from a relative or family friend. However, this so-called "syndrome" has been repudiated by the scientific community as it cannot be validated and thus cannot discriminate between abuse and non-abuse cases. It is also known as child-sexual-abuse syndrome.

Example: The defense lawyer argued that the child's behavior was consistent with child-sexual-abuse accommodation syndrome, but the court rejected this argument as it lacks scientific validity.

A child's income tax refers to the kiddie tax under tax law. It is a monetary charge imposed by the government on persons, entities, transactions, or property to yield public revenue. The term encompasses all governmental impositions on the person, property, privileges, occupations, and enjoyment of the people, and includes duties, imposts, and excises. Although a tax is often thought of as being pecuniary in nature, it is not necessarily payable in money.

Example: The kiddie tax applies to children under the age of 18 who have unearned income above a certain threshold. This tax is designed to prevent parents from shifting their investment income to their children to avoid paying higher taxes.

@llama: your cycle confuses me, your stats are good and you applied early but all of those Rs? Is there anything weird about your app?
do you have C&F issues or something?
also ur first choice is kansas but you didnt apply there?
12:55
@RasheedWallaceFan: Hi. Yes, I waited for April LSAT, put almost all apps (which were sent really early) so that basically most of my apps were reviewed In May. Shot myself in the foot for 155 -> 161 lmao. Would not recommend 10/10
12:57
@RasheedWallaceFan: unironically, KSLS was my top choice, however by April LSAT their app had closed. It was like waiting to date ur dream partner, but waiting until you graduate uni, then by the time u graduate uni, your soul mate is already married with 2.4 kids and 1.6 dogs. Heartbreak.exe fr fr
12:58
are you R&Ring?
13:00
No, I think what I will do is flip a coin: heds NKU, tails NEL|B what u guys think bout dat. Then once 1L - if good at LS, try to transfer, if bad at LS or one of my grandiose ideas/inventions are viable, drop out and pursue.
oh so you submitted the apps with a lower lsat and then retook
got it

Most schools will hold your application for the next test score to be released into your account as well. I was notified by an admissions director that if a decision is processed they will not retroactively go back for the new score even if higher

@Bettercaulsaul: in my experience, there is often an option on the application for you to choose whether you'd like them to review your application as-is ASAP or hold it until your new score is released. but it probably varies by school—I just remember seeing that option on at least a few app forms
