A kid's view on marriage


What Exactly Is Marriage?"


Marriage is when you get to keep your girl and don't have to give her back to her parents"
-Eric, six years old

"When somebody's been dating for a while, the boy might propose to the girl. He says to her,
'I'll take you for a whole life, or at least until we have kids and get divorced, but you got to do
one particular thing for me.' Then she says yes, but she's wondering what the thing is and
whether it's naughty or not. She can't wait to find out." -Anita, nine years old


How Does a Person Decide Whom to marry?

"You flip a nickel, and heads means you stay with him and tails means you try the next one."
-Kelly, nine years old

"My mother says to look for a man who is kind....That's what I'll do....I'll find somebody who's
kinda tall and handsome." -Carolyn, eight years old


How Did Your Mom and Dad Meet?

"They were at a dance party at a friend's house. Then they went for a drive, but their car
broke down...It was a good thing, because it gave them a chance to find out about their
values." -Lottie, nine years old

"My father was doing some strange chores for my mother. They won't tell me what kind."
-Jeremy, eight years old


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, ten years old

"Many daters just eat pork chops and french fries and talk about love."
-Craig, nine years old


When Is It Okay to Kiss Someone?

"You should never kiss a girl unless you have enough bucks to buy her a ring and her own
VCR, 'cause she'll want to have videos of the wedding." -Allan, ten years old

"Never kiss in front of other people. It's a big embarrassing thing if anybody sees you....
If nobody sees you, I might be willing to try it with a handsome boy, but just for a few hours."
-Kally, nine years old


The Great Debate: Is It Better to Be Single or Married?

"You should ask the people who read Cosmopolitan" -Kirsten, ten years old

"It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need somebody to clean up after them"
-Anita, nine years old

"It gives me a headache to think about that stuff. I'm just a kid. I don't need that kind of
trouble." -Will, seven years old
