1. Deceitful Dad promises to take Sammy Son to the store to purchase a video game over the weekend. Deceitful Dad has promised to do this multiple times, and never follows through. Sammy Son has had enough and writes a contact between Deceitful Dad and Sammy Son. Both parties sign the agreement and it is notarized. Deceitful Dad, despite the contract, fails to follow through once again. Can Sammy Son seek damages under the contract? Why or why not? Would the result be different if Sammy Son paid Deceitful Dad $15.00 to take him to the store?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No, I don't think so. It's not serious, and if Deceitful Dad makes it up and Sammy Son accepts the apology, then no charges will be pressed. Also the result might be different, but it's in his name, it's in his nature to lie, so Deceitful Dad might accept the 15 dollars first and not take him at all (basically, he could scam Sammy)
