Talkinkamel. momof3 had that to say about the woman who was selling her virginity on ebay to the highest bidder. a bunch of us were throwing around ideas and opinions as to wether or not it was prostitution. Maybe that was thrown in at the wrong time during the debate.
I had to mention the parent passing away thing because my b/f`s 9 yr old niece lost her mother 4 yrs ago. Her dad is still single and he is raising her. Not all parental deaths occur when the child grows up. I am not one for reading parenting and relationship issues from a magazine. Everyone is different and every situation is different. I didn`t have my children because I was trying to work on the relationship. Things hit the fan when my last child was born…a girl. What he didn`t let on was that he didn`t want a girl. He went to court and got visitations for his daughter so I had no idea that was going to happen. It was definately something i did not see comming.
My point earlier is that sometimes even in 2 parent (both parents married) households things hppen that cannot be foreseen or stopped and the household becomes a one parent home. Some pple after going through one divorce choose to go the parenting thing alone out of fear of what may happen with the second marriage. Things don`t always turn out for the best, no matter how hard we try.
For another instance. Two pple fall in love, get married. Marriage is strong, healthy for 10 yrs. Then they both decide it`s time to expand the family. Maybe they just have one kid or maybe three. Then out of the blue one parent decides child/children wasn`t for them and they leave. Who is the one to take critism? The parent left standing with the kid(s)or the one who walked away? Some critism goes to the one who walked away, others critisize the parent who stayed with the child.
