Well I am still in the cold north......just not the boonies.......but
can't wait for the 27th and 80 degree weather. :-)


Yeah I think you need to take me with you, if not just to hear me stop
whining about it.

You want to share a room for a week with a complete stranger? As long
as I'm paying right LOL


Christine


LOL Busted! When you put it like that though, the romance is gone.
~sigh~


DAMN! So if you paid your own way, would you feel better about it?
heehee




Don't kill the romance Paul! Pay up! She will get over it as soon as you
romance her in person.

But boy, you'd sure have to have compatible child rearing
views & styles to make it work.


And isn't that the point.


Okay, now i'm thinking some of you that haven't been married or had bad
marraiges maybe think that a good marraige parents agree about childrraising
all the time? Let me disabuse you of that fantasy.

A couple can be compatible, share values, blah blah blah and still disagree
about "Should we let her pierce her ears, buy that game, ect?" When you are
both the parents, you have to work that out, compromise. You aren't going to
agree on everything. Someone is going to have to give in.

When a step parent is involved, I'm saying ONE PERSON makes those decisions,
and it's not the step parent. The parent decides if she gets to wear that
shirt to the dance, not the step parent. I don't think agreeing on the shirt
should be a requirement for getting married, I think agreeing WHO decides about
the shirt is a requirment for getting married.

And I also believe discipline is the parents job. You earn the right to
discipline a child by virtue of having been there their whole life...not by
having sex with their mother or father.


Now I'm getting deja vue and wondering if I ought to be shining up those KGB
boots...

Hey I don't know about other single Moms but this one has standards
and forming complete sentences along with proper spelling just
happens to be one of them. Hmm could be why I'm still single
though. lol

Nope......its because you live up in the cold north boonies ;-)

I'm willing to relocate.

Oh yeah, because you're the only one who did it right. How could we
have forgotten.

A couple can be compatible, share values, blah blah blah and still disagree
about "Should we let her pierce her ears, buy that game, ect?" When you are
both the parents, you have to work that out, compromise. You aren't going to
agree on everything. Someone is going to have to give in.

When a step parent is involved, I'm saying ONE PERSON makes those decisions,
and it's not the step parent.


And that's where you're wrong. The one person is the one who feels
more strongly about that particular issue, or who is most reasonable
about that particular issue, or who has the most clear perspective
about that particular issue, or who is the most educated on that
particular issue, or etc. Sometimes it's the stepparent, sometimes
it's the parent. Most often, especially at the beginning but easily
long into the marriage, it will be the parent, but that's because the
parent has a head start knowing the friends, being involved in the
school, etc.

The parent decides if she gets to wear that
shirt to the dance, not the step parent. I don't think agreeing on the shirt
should be a requirement for getting married, I think agreeing WHO decides about
the shirt is a requirment for getting married.

And I also believe discipline is the parents job. You earn the right to
discipline a child by virtue of having been there their whole life...not by
having sex with their mother or father.


Discipline is the parent's job *if* the discipline the parent employs
is working. Many single parents let up on discipline out of guilt.
Often the stepparent has a better perspective, as he/she can see where
the parent is being inconsistent.

Okay. If you want to do it that way. I'm not wrong though.
