This is going to sound like a strange question. What is it that causes some men to become violent towards their partner when she becomes pregnant. Homicide is one of the leading causes of deaths in pregnant women (Laci Peterson and Jesse Davis). Some studies have shown that domestic violence increases when a woman is pregnant. Can someone explain to me what goes through these guys' heads? Don't hold back. I really want to know.

I notice that instead of a question receiving only answers, sometimes the question evolves into a discussion. Much like a forum.

My understanding of Yahoo Answers is the format is supposed to be Q & A.
Not Question & Argue.

Do you believe Yahoo Answers is now regarded as less a source of knowlege or opinion than a means to discuss items of interest and possible promote yourself to the world?

Look at our planet its a circle.It circles the sun, the moon circles the earth. It is going in a circle. The seconds,minutes,hours,weeks,months,and years,only build up this thing we call "time".When "time" is a measurement from on distance to another. But we are going in circles.
Yet we worry about not having enough time, enough of anything.
So therefore, we program our minds to create the illusion that their is not enough, thus, we race to get as much as we can before the other person does.
Yet we are going in circles, see my point? Or is it going over your heads?
We worry that their is not enough of anything, yet we are going in a circle, there is a cycle for everything, there is enough for everyone,then why do we think there is not enough?

By 'cook', I mean prepare and cook a meal from fresh/frozen ingredients, not opening a box and bunging it in the oven or microwave.

All answers will be appreciated, and will be used in a Thesis I am writing on food and eating habits. Please state in your answers which country you live in, and county/state/department/landkreis etc would also be useful.

Thanks, peeps.

I don't know exactly how to word this, so I'm gonna try the best I can. I had a sort of...realization, I suppose. I realized that I live such a sheltered life, it hit me that the biggest obstacle I have to face during the day is which outfit to wear or which car to drive to school. When there are people who have the weight of the world on their shoulders every single day, people that are dying because they don't have enough food or good health care. I really want to give something back or do charity work or something...something to make myself feel like I actually have a purpose here, that I'm needed. And not that my ultimate goal in life is shop and spend money. So please, if you could direct me to any sites that tell you what you can do to volunteer I would appreciate it so much. Thanks in advance

they can afford the cost of raising multiple children. plus hire nannies and whatnot.

no need to worry about the details of transporting so many kids, hire another chauffer!

it would stroke their ego immensely. prove their vitality.

exclusitivity

someone else can always buy a bigger yacht or a larger mcmansion.

not many people can join the "raising 20+ kids" club.

passing on their genes. why create a legacy when you only have three kids to leave it to? have 20+ kids and lord over a dynasty

I know I did. I didn't really even know what I was doing but I knew I would get in trouble if I was caught doing it. I wonder why that is and how that is. How did I know it was wrong, but didn't see it as wrong?

I thought they were all the same thing, but I guess not. I reported an issue to my Case Manager about a CPS case, & she told me that I should've called CPS & I'd get in trouble if I didn't. I thought CMs were part of CPS. Maybe not.

But they SURE do all have something in common. They get stories mixed up in reported situations. They add stuff in & leave stuff out & make things a great big mess. & when the CPS or Adult PS gets involved, everything that's documented turns out to not be true, & that's a great big hassle for me.
