Andy Griffith has been married three times. With his first wife, Barbara, he adopted a son, Andrew Samuel Griffith Jr. (born in 1957 and known as Sam Griffith) and a daughter, Dixie Nan. Sam died in 1996 after years of alcoholism.
It is perfectly legal for a rental property owner to require the rent payment in full on or before the first of the month and to not offer any sort of grace period. Even with a grace period, the rental property owner legally has the right to serve notices regarding nonpayment of rent. I have seen many examples of landlords tightening their policies and rules, including a reduction or elimination of grace periods.
The deferments of grace periods are in place to allow students to postpone any repayments on the federal guaranteed loan for 6 months after graduation. However, there is an exception to the grace periods and this is the federal direct plus loan for parents (FDPLP). Those parents whop get this loan are supposed to start the repayment immediately after the disbursement of the loan.
