How Does a Person Decide Whom to Marry?
"You flip a nickel, and heads means
you stay with him and tails means you try the next one."
Kally, age 9
"You got to find somebody who likes
the same stuff. Like if you like
sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips
and dip coming."
Allan, age 10
"No person really decides before they
grow up who they're going to marry. God
decides it all way before, and you got to find out later who you're stuck
with."
Kirsten, age 10
Concerning
the Proper Age to Get Married

you know the person FOREVER by then!"

at....You got to be a fool to get married!"
Freddie, age 6
What
Do Most People Do on a Date?
"Dates are for having fun, and people
should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if
you listen long enough."
Lynnette, age 8
"On the first date, they just tell
each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a
second date."
Martin, age 10
When
is It Okay to Kiss Someone?
"When they're rich!"
Pam, age 7
"The law says you have to be eighteen,

someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them.... It's the right
thing to do."
Howard, age 8
The
Great Debate: Is It Better to Be Single or Married?
"I don't know which is better, but
I'll tell you one thing ... I'm never going to have sex with my wife. I don't want to be all grossed out!"
Theodore, age 8
"It's better for girls to be single
but not for boys. Boys need somebody to
clean up after them!"
Anita, age 9
Single is better ... for the simple reason
that I wouldn't want to change no diapers... Of course, if I did get married,
I'd figure something out. I'd just
phone my mother and have her come over for some coffee and
diaper-changing."
Kirsten, age 10

Married for a Second Time

boys would come chasing after us just the same as they do now!"

the Children Would Do on a First Date That Was Turning Sour
