Wallstreeter, <<My kids will grow up with a strong knowledge of the lord and i will give them the best chance possible to gain a faith in the lord. My kids will be taught to be strong willed kids ,not wimps who cannot control their animalistic hormones.>> I sincerely hope that is the case. However, if you think that just because you have remained virginal unitl your marriage, and youpreach that to your kids, that your children will automatically emulate that, YOuur kids will do the same, then you are mistaken. It is not automatic, or a sure thing. Every child is an individual, with individual strengths, weakneses, and curiosities. Look at the siblings of the3 kids you grew up with. everyone was different from each other, complete with their own accomplishments and failings. these are children of the same parents, in the same circumstances. <<Divorce rate is so high here because people just give up and want to take the easy way out.>> Sometimes that is the case, sometimes people just shouldnt be married. Many people arent the same people they were when they got married. Things change, stuff happens. <<Condoms are safe but the safest sex is abstainence because it builds character and spirit.>> That is also sometimes true. Abstinence, in and of itself, does not necessarily build charracter and lead to greater spirituality. Like anything else, it depends on what you do with it. Sometimes it just leads to frustration.
