HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY?

Written by internet kids and my kids (mine were pretty tired and being silly as it was way after bed time).

HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY?

1) 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. - Alan, age 10

2) No person really decides before they grow up who they're going marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with. - Kristen, age 10

Q: Which ever one is prettier and nicer.

G: If the person loves you then they will marry you.

WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?

1) Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then. - Camille, age 10

2) No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married. - Freddie, age 6 (Very wise for his age)

Q: 15 and over.

G: 17

HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?

1) You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids. - Derrick, age 8

Q: Cause they have sex, and because you can see them in a car together.

G: They are together a lot.

WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MUM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON?

1) Both don't want any more kids. - Lori, age 8

I forgot to ask this one until they were in bed. So the answer was not taken at all seriously...

Q: You are both baked beans. Good night baked bean.

G: I love you baked bean....

WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?

1) 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 (Isn't she a treasure?)

2) 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

Q: You have dinner with another person.

G: They drive sometimes to the river and swim.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR?

1) I'd run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns. -Craig, age 9

Q: Just go home.

G: I would tell them to get out of the car.

WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?

1) When they're rich. - Pam, age 7

2) The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with that. - Curt, age 7

3) The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do. - Howard, age 8

Q: When you know that they are fine. You need to know them a lot.

G: When you know them.I kiss Maxine a lot on the cheek and on the lips.

IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?

1) Its better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them.
- Anita, age 9 (Bless you child)

Q: Single for me.

G: Married for me.

HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED?

1) There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there? - Kelvin, age 8

Q: There would be thousands of people in thousands of cars. People would live alone.

G: The people wouldn't get babies. You would live like an old lady with her shoe.

HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?

(1) Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a truck. - Ricky, age 10

Q: I don't know. Don't fight. Buy them six roses and put them next to a mirror so it looks like twelve - like Daddy did.

G: You have to love them. Do something nice.
