Dan I am not advocating that parents should leave telling their children about sex to the govt. I am advocating that, as with anyting, the more knowledge gained the better. I am advocating that contraceptives be made available to those kids who are going to have sex regrardless of weather they have them or not. <<I am no head doctor but I also know the divorce rate is 50%%%%>> The divorce rate is higher today, because people realize tht if they are in a marriage that makes them unhappy and has no future, they are not stuck in it. I think that freedom is a good thing. <<Why, by all means Mark, lets take the low road, lets give them condoms and state supported abortion clinics , and clean needles, and tell them lying makes no difference cause it's a "private" matter for our govt. officials, and lets teach them all those very convenient things.... >> I see no upside into getting an abortion discussion now(who has THAT kind of time:-) ) As for lying, I think putting kids into a situation where they will uneveitably have to lie is the the wrong thing. OPEN diuscussionis where the lying ends. BTW, I AM for clean needles(ops, that will be another fifty posts) <<I guess her husband and you go out ever now and again for a couple beers to talk about old times huh? >> Why? what would that prove? LIfe has moved on for both of us. I am sure that she doesnt feel "immoral" because of our relationship, I certainly dont. << No more so than the fact that you did not marry her and used her for your gratification, Mark.>> In no way do I consider that I used her. We had very strong feeling for each other, and a huge emotional commitmment. I dont feel that is using at all. <<I would be interested in her life since?>> Married, kids, house in the 'burbs. Very boring stuff as far as what I know about her life now. << realise that our kids are not ,how would you say it,"hung up" about sex as we were.>> I think thats healthy for the most part. Hang ups are hang ups, no matter how you slice it. <<God will NOT be mocked Mark>> In no way do I feel that I am doing that. Remember, I dont take the Bible literally. Mark
