[quote]Not that this has much to do with mens' rights or even divorce, but I would like to ask you a few questions, as if I were one of your kids, and to see what your answers would be to them:
1. Mommy, why do men have to pay for everything when a man and a woman "date"?
2. Mommy, I heard Uncle Joe telling someone that his wife divorced him for his money and now he has to live in a shelter, and his wife stays in the house he bought and he has to pay her almost everything he makes. He said that he only gets to see Jimmy and Janette once a week, for two hours. Is this true? Did he do something wrong?
3. Mommy, what is "prostitution"? Why is someone on TV always saying that someone is going to jail for it?
4. Mommy, what is an "abortion"? I saw someone on TV holding a sign that said it is murder. If this is true, why don't they arrest someone who does this, instead of the "prostitutes"?
Your absence of any reply will be understandable, as would be your absence of any reply if you were, indeed, asked these questions by your child. How can a person rationally answer any question, when the answer would expose themselves as being a self-serving, exploitative hypocrite?! [/quote]
JBAR, your stupid...but actually some of those questions have come up with my kids and depending upon their age determines how I answer the question as I don't give more information than what they can either handle or are looking for.
1. Has never come up, as I teach my children equality...the person who asks for the date pays and either can ask. Personally for teenagers, I think when they start going out on a regular basis things should be split or traded off. For example,if my daughter has a steady boyfriend, then sometimes she pays & sometime he pays or they go dutch...or they find something to do that doesn't cost money cause their isn't anything wrong with that. 2. That's just a bunch of crap and doesn't deserve a reply. 3. Prostitution is illegal. Whether we agree that it should be or not doesn't matter, if someone breaks the law then they go to jail. 4. Abortion is legal. Whether we agree that it should be or not doesn't matter. They didn't break any law.
Your the self-serving hypocrite JBAR!
