sexuality, commitment, marriage, divorce
SinglDad and others with opinions, let's take the gloves off and have a discussion about these issues. They are foundational to parenting, as sex (uniting sperm and egg) is what causes children. Can we try it, and see if we can keep it respectful, both of one another's reasoning skills and emotional responses? I think that reasoning and emotion are both valid modes of response to this core issue. I don't think we need to use any biological terms, either scientific or vulgar, as what I would like to be discussing is the social and relationship context of sexual activity. I would also like to include ideas about discussing the context of sexual activity with our children. I posit as a basic idea that educating our children is an "early and often" point, like Mayor Daley said about voting.

Thing is Gail, I just don't have the time to write the long, overly opinionated messages that you write. I am a parent and a professional who works way too many hours to rant and rave on message boards. I have posted in multiple places about Baby Borrowers after simply searching the title through Yahoo. I do have a connection to the show and am well aware of what took place. Did you work on the show? Were you there? Or are you just sounding off to have something to write about this week. I appreciate your arguments, but I don't like feeling uncomfortable, and you make me uncomfortable. I imagine you as a lonely human being that has nothing better to do than sound off REPEATEDLY about things you truly know nothing about.

THANKS sballvr. The original content of this discussion (teaching children about the appropriate social and relationship context of sexual activity) will now be addressed on Teen pregnancy. Like I said earlier, I'm probably gonna disappear from the boards soon, so I am glad that the discussion will continue, initiated by a professional who has some expertise, though she doesn't have much time to add content.

Sballvr, if you don't want to feel uncomfortable, why are you here posting. It is optional you know. This message board is not around to make you feel comfortable, it is about reality and people don't always like the answers they get.
P.S. I wonder how uncomfortable those small children felt?????

I just entered this discussion and I must say, it has been entertaining reading this little message board.

Which so far has supported this discussion continuing. I love America!

America is great, even though the economy sucks and gas is like a billion dollars a bushel.

seriously Sballvr...you can go to a counselor if you want some comforting. the fact that you promote the baby-shilling show Baby Borrowers just makes me wish you were never allowed 50 feet from a toddler... save the babies!

Jaker80, AverageCarrie, MegHugz, Sballvr. One of you has discovered the "report spam" button. NBC is trying to silence me on this forum, too.

Gail, it isn't NBC that's trying to get you its George W. Bush, Bush is behind this show, Bush is trying to borrow the babies.
