What future societies do is no concern of ours. There are a whole lot of futurists who would strongly disagree with that. Quite a few who make very good money precisely by being concerned about what future societies might do! <g> So for you or anyone else to condone the relationship and wish the happy couple well in their nuptials is just a tad odd, don't you think? Odd, maybe. But unreasonable? I don't think so. Can't good sometimes come out of bad situations? They are now both adults. They have two children together. It's not the kind of relationship I would want, and I frankly think he's making a mistake and will come to regret it, but he'a an adult and entitled to make a mistake if he wants to. And since they're both adults, if they ARE going to exercise their legal rights and get married, which is their right and their business and not mine, for the sake of the children don't you think it's reasonable to wish them good luck and happiness? Or do think that because of their past they deserve to be unhappy for the rest of their lives together?
