Married with Children? You're amongst the elite in America.

How is stating a common sense fact being considered looking down on people?

By basically saying that parents should not be worthless? Why would I applaud worthless parents?

It isn't that you are calling the parents worthless, it is that you are calling the CHILDREN worthless and hopeless by saying that they will end up just like their parents and thus don't deserve an education.

Did someone doing a few random questionaires tell you that?

Oh lookie! Here is one that disagrees with you!

"While money is reportedly the number one argument between a couple, it is unknown if this is actually the number one cause for divorce. Again, this is because the generalized incompatibility grounds would cover a reason for divorce based on money issues. " ..........."it is safe to say that of all the possible causes of divorce, incompatibility is the number one reason people file."

and another!

"When the vows break, don't blame it on financial problems. Money is not the number one cause of divorce, says a researcher at California State University, Sacramento.
Contrary to popular belief, there's no evidence that money issues are the major factor when marriages break up"

and yet another!

"Also, 62% of ex-wives and ex-husbands answered "yes" to the question, " do you wish your ex-spouse had worked harder to save the marriage?" These findings (along with "lack of commitment" being the number one reason given for divorce) run counter to the conventional wisdom that most divorces only happen after both spouses have done their best to save the marriage."

Ummm she was a practicing family law attorney so I think she knows what she is talking about, not because of what she read on the net.

And secondly while I do agree that children have a better chance at becoming a productives member of society if they are raised in a home with two loving parents who can provide benefit to them, but then again, it also goes the other way.... does it not?

YOU OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW THIS.

I am not making a personal attack, but only stating the obvious.

good God, help us. Deliver us from another MrPlunkey "fuck the poor" tirade.

You go girl! It's you against the world.

You know all these guys secretly want you. That's the only reason they gang-up on you and your baby.

You're probably the only rational, level-headed person here.

Either that or you are just a flake who is desperate for attention and can't get it from the real world.

Come to think about it, I'm gonna go with that theory.

I changed what I said before - THIS was the best post on this thread.

Shows true character. We at elite have come to expect nothing less.

Whoopie, you found 3 articles stating different interpretations for the results to the well known statistical results of 1000's of polls stating that financial reasons are the number one reasons for divorce.

It just shows how you shouldn't believe everthing you hear and also how you can never admit when you are wrong.

FYI all 3 of those were on the main page of google search. I didn't even make it past the first page of search results.

None of the people in my life who have divorced were due to financial reasons. It was always due to incompatibility and adultery.

Que?

She practised family law. You used google.

Funny of the women that I knew who divorced they all said it was because their husband's were controlling jerks. My husband divorced the wives he had before because they cheated.

We all get to be right. LOL

statistically speaking, the number one reason stated when polling divorcing couples is "financial problems." 1000's of polls, year after year. Now, you found 3 articles where they want to interpret those results to mean something else. Big deal. I bet I can go on the internet right now and find three articles that say that the moon landing was faked. If you had ever been in a marraige and had any experience with financial pressures, you may have some perspective on this.

would you be better pleased if I worded it differently?

"Parents who fail at marriage and life due to circumstances which they CAN controll will TEND to pass their behaviors onto their children whom are being exposed to it throughout maturing. In turn the chances of the children to succeed in life are reduced, but not diminshed"

Is that more PC for you?

Oh plus I never said they didn't deserve an education. There you go lying about what people said YET AGAIN.

 

[alien amp pharm]

Well as much as I've enjoyed all this, I have work to do.

Besides there will never be a conclusion to this thread with all the know-it-all women posting.

No wonder your marriages fail.
