and the list goes on n on

Answer 1

You got it the wrong way round: You meant marriage before sex is wrong. In fact, marriage itself is wrong!

Answer 2

Kids are going to mess around no matter what. We are sexual beings, and those urges kick in somewhere around the age of 12. Teen pregnancies were happening generations before this - except in some years past, the father of the baby got threatened into marrying the woman. We all know what a shotgun wedding is - and sometimes, it did involve a shotgun. What has happened to us? It's been happening long before this.

I guess that as a parent, if my child wants to mess around, well, he or she is going to find a way. Now, do we necessarily want a whole population of offspring from kids exploring their sexuality? As far as I know, the youngest father in America was 8 years old. He was exploring his sexuality with his 12 year old cousin? He was on the David Letterman show, saying he would have to get a part-time job, after school - elementary school.

You have a way to "fix" gay people? You should probably share that with some medical and/or mental health professionals. A lot of research has been done, and all along, you have known something they don't...

Answer 3

I have a note from my mommy to excuse myself from this question.






Do you see the list above of all that I have promised my children. NO! You don't good because I never promise anything. It creates distrust, dysfunction and disagreements. If I never promised my children anything than I sure in hell ain't going to promise anybody else. This way no one is ever disappointed in me.

I taught both my children to own their own bodies and raise their standard in the quality of people they hang with.

One has absorbed this into her head beautifully.

The other has a thick head it will be a while before he gets it through his brain and soul that just cause a woman will spread her legs for you doesn't make it LOVE or right. If she doesn't make your wiener ill, she might get pg then she has the power over your life for 19 years. This is going to place a damper on your paycheck and your happiness when you do find the woman of your dreams. How can you have a fun life that way?

As far as Gay and Lesbians go I don't understand that at all.

Answer 4

Promoting birth conctol is not condoning sex before marriage. It's just acknowledging the realities of life.
What makes you think 'fixing' gay people is even possible? It's really not anyone's business who other adults are with anyway.

Hey Indiana: In reality, you can't cut and paste. Why not try thinking for yourself?

Answer 5

THATS WHAT HAPPENED

Answer 6

Saying that sex before marriage is wrong won't stop it happening, best to make it safe.

Answer 7

He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else (Benjamin Franklin)

Most of us are guilty of having done something we shouldn't have or of not doing something we should have. When we are questioned about our misconduct, do we accept responsibility and admit we are at fault? Usually not. Instead we make excuses. Making excuses for mistakes is not new. In fact, we can trace this undesirable habit all the way back to the Garden of Eden. For when God asked Adam if he had eaten of the tree he was commanded not to, Adam created the world's first excuse, "The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat." (Genesis 3:12) And when God asked Eve what she had done, she gave the world's second excuse, "The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat." (Genesis 3:13)

Excuses negate responsibility, and it is responsibility that separates man from the rest of the animal kingdom. Unlike other animals, we are responsible not for what we have, but for what we could have; not for what we are, but for what we could become. If we are to take credit for our successes, we must assume responsibility for our failures. Trying to hide our failures with excuses is like concealing a small hole in our garment with a large patch; it only makes the matter worse. This analogy is taken from Shakespeare who wrote:

"And oftentimes, excusing of a fault,
Doth make a fault the worse by the excuse;
As patches set upon a little breach,
Discredit more in hiding of the fault,
Than did the fault before it was so patch'd."

Excuses are harmful because they prevent one from succeeding. When we make excuses and repeat them often enough, they become a belief. The belief then becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. For example, a sales rep discouraged by his poor sales starts to blame the price of his product. "No one wants to buy it because it's too expensive." he says. After repeatedly making this excuse, he begins to believe it is true. The result? Dismal sales. Compare this with a responsible sales rep. After hearing many prospects complain about the high price, he accepts responsibility. "It is my fault they are complaining," the rep says, "for I haven't justified the cost of my product by adequately pointing out its value." Once we accept responsibility, we can evaluate our actions and take corrective measures to find solutions to our problems. Excuses, on the other hand, are like stop signs; they halt our progress.

By refusing to make excuses and embracing responsibility, we reap many rewards. The successes brought by this attitude act as a foundation for self-respect, pride, and confidence. Responsibility breeds competence and power. By living up to our promises and obligations, we win the trust of others. Once we are seen as trustworthy, people will willingly work with us, for our mutual gain. So, you see, making excuses can put the brakes on our progress, while accepting responsibility can lead us to the top.

Too bad we cannot refer everyone to the next section of the web page which is how to stop making excuses ...
