Let’s Cut Right to the Chase (Kids--On Love and Marriage)

How do you decide who to marry?  
"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

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

What is the right age to get married?  
"Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then." Camille, age 10

"No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married." Freddie, age 6

How can a stranger tell if two people are married?
"You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids."
Derrick, age 8

What do you think your mom and dad have in common?
"Both don't want no more kids." Lori, age 8

What do most people do on a date?
"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

What would you do on a first date that was turning sour?
"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

When is it ok to kiss someone?
"When they're rich." Pam, age 7

"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

Is it better to be single or married?
"It's better for girls to be single, but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them."
Anita, age 9

How would the world be different if people didn't get married?
"There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?" Kelvin, age 8
