<p>"" But that’s part of the reason I think this kind of non-disclosure agreement is so silly. It is almost impossible to keep or enforce to the letter precisely for the reason that m2ck is suggesting:</p>
<p>“Hey, dad - you know that lawsuit that we have discussed at length? The one that consumed our lives for months and caused big problems for me at school? What happened with that?”"</p>
<p>And if I understand the terms correctly, the parents weren’t even permitted to say, “it’s been settled.” </p>
<p>That is ridiculous. </p>
<p>Luckily, I’ve had few incidents where I’ve needed to deal with attys on a professional basis. However, during those few times, they’ve been VERY good about alerting me to things that would either be unreasonable or unworkable. Snays’ attys likely didn’t stress that. They knew that the Snays had a near-adult child who knew about the lawsuit. They should have said, “we need to get this clause out otherwise you can’t even tell your d that the issue is settled or concluded. And that’s just not reasonable.”</p>
