Studying for nursing school, taking care of a spouse, shuttling kids around here and there, taking care of elderly mom and working is difficult. No way around it, but this sister is doin’ it. I am not whining, just saying it would be easier for my children to attend college, then marry, then have children. They can concentrate on their studies and not have to worry that they are shirking any of their responsibilities.

M’am, don’t feel like you have to apologize. You’re observation and advice are dead on in my opinion. Jeff’s glib response that life is hard was really quite idiotic.

I know you're not. And I understand the importance of acquiring marketable skills before taking on responsibilities. But school and work aren't life; they are for the purpose of supporting our lives, and I wouldn't recommend waiting until your thirties to start your life, like so many people do.

The problem is, if they don’t marry, the temptation for sex outside of marriage is very strong.

I don’t think many people want to wait until they are 35 to do it.

I guess most people don’t care? Fornication ain’t no thing any more.

But I care. God’s prescription for sexual desire is marriage. There is a purpose and a blessing in it.

My son married at 18, God bless him. It was that or celibacy! And he wasn’t called to celibacy.

He just finished his degree. They’re fine.

Congratulations, on your pursuit of a degree, Brwnsuga. You make conservatives proud to have you as a member.

Unfortunately most people live together and end up with a child outside of marriage. It would be so much better if they did it the right way, but alas, it doesn’t happen that way much anymore.
