Back to the Future

Last week, Laney discussed the ways dating has changed over the last ten years and the impact online dating has made. This made me wonder about the future of dating and relationships. If we continue with current trends, and perhaps brace for more dating trends, how will the gender dynamics continue to change?

Will women pursue men more or less?

Will we still want to get married or will more of us decide to cohabitate first?

Do you think we will have more Brad & Angelinas - having children and sharing custody? Or will there be more traditional couples like Will and Jada Smith - married with children?

What about gay unions?

If you could predict the dating scene of 2017, how would you describe it?

There is already one dating trend among single women that I remember reading about a few years ago. Apparently, some single women decided hit the snooze buttons on their biological clocks, so to speak, by freezing their viable eggs. Supposedly, this took the “pressure” off so that they didn’t feel that they had to pick any Tom, Dick, or Harry to marry, just to procreate in their 20s. They feel that it buys them more time to casually date, without the expiration date looming on their ovaries.

What are your thoughts about this? Have you met any women who decided to take this route? Did it change their dating habits and attitudes about the dating scene?

Good Morning All

A few thoughts that will, and may be, contradictions.

Will women pursue men more or less?

I would say yes. As we grow farther away from traditions/mores of the past, there will be less importance placed on traditional roles (they will eventually be forgotten). There might be a bit of “pushback” from men because of the need of some men to be the ‘Hunter/Pursuer’.

Will we still want to get married or will more of us decide to cohabitate first?

I think there will be a move back toward marriage. As entertainment options within the home continue to increase, I think more people will move back toward monogamy and a decrease in the ‘party’ culture. People are social animals, but most people still want to ‘bond’ with one soulmate.

I think that there will be more marriages and more divorces after long marriages because it is hard to want to stay with the same person for a lifetime.

Do you think we will have more Brad & Angelinas - having children and sharing custody? Or will there be more traditional couples like Will and Jada Smith - married with children?

I honestly think there will be a move back to traditional. There is still no stronger bond than the one that exists between a parent and his/her natural child. As younger women (hopefully) become smarter, they will realize there is a difference between a father and a “sperm donor”.

What about gay unions?

There will be a move toward ‘gay unions’ incorporating legal protections but away from ‘gay marriage’. There are signs of “pushback” from people who seem to be getting tired of the relentless march for gay rights that has been around for the last 20 years or so.

If you could predict the dating scene of 2017, how would you describe it?

I think that most of the dating will be very electronic bases (Internet, etc.), much more use of video, and a move toward more shared interests. It will reflect the changing customs caused by continued influx of foreign cultures. I think that dating will continue to be different for divorced (single agains), than for ‘never marrieds. I think at some point there will be less ‘accidental’ pregnancies in the unmarried set, and more intentional planned pregnancies between unmarrieds.

I just reread this and realize that I have used a lot of words to say nothing. Ultimately I believe that as people live longer, they will marry more, and divorce more, and remarry more.

Good Morning,

I don’t think the dating scene will change much or at all. Definately the way we date will change, i.e. internet dating, women being more proactive, but not much else. There have always been non-traditional couples, they are just more accepted by mainstream America as opposed to being seen as taboo.

What about gay unions? I think giving rights to gay couples who exist as a heterosexual couple is a wonderful idea.

Now what if there were heterosexual unions, all the rights, but no marriage. I think that option would change the dating scene drastically.

Good Morning Wise, SlimOne, Mocha, QC, Kinder, Musing, Demi, GA Man, Randy, lurkers, newbies and all

I think that in the future dating will be different than it is today. As women continue to move toward the front of the line more and more, I think you will see more agressive women with respect to dating and eventually women will start to “not settle” for just any guy as much as they do now.

In terms of family structures, I think that a move back toward the traditional family will be prevalent. The current generations have plenty to look at in terms of what not to do so to speak.

Good Morning.

In reference to the “snooze buttons”: My friend Marissa the attorney who will be 38 this year is recently engaged and is trying to conceive. She and I were talking about this a few weeks ago and she says that her decision to do this late in life was all about timing. Aligning the perfect man with the most opportune time in her life. She was saying how there were times when things were terrific in her life but she could not seem to find the right guy to add to the mix. And then there were times when the guy would have made an excellent father and husband but she just wasn’t comfortable with where she was in her own state. But now she feels that everything is in sync. They are both financially stable, they already live together and share everything as a couple, so now she feels safe to bring a little person or two in to share their lives. They have only been trying for three months and if they get to the six months mark with no results they will try fertility drugs and the next step will be IVF. Their goal is to have the first child before she turns 40.

Now that’s where we differ. I am so glad that I have already nearly raised my kids and am able to enjoy life going into 40 without the “hassles” of child birth and raising. Don’t get me wrong child birth is one of the greatest gifts God granted woman but I am glad to be done with it. It’s nice being able to take off or go out when ever we want with out the worries of sitters and small kids. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Good Morning All,

What is that saying “Everything old is new again? or “There is nothing new under the sun?”

I think that while technology changes and people are now texting their way through first dates, booty calls and even marriage proposals..I think at some point we will grow weary of all of the impersonality that technology has given us…dont get me wrong I am a huge supporter of internet dating, but at some point there will be this turn around back to as they say the good ole days.

Wisey I understand the whole we are women hear us roar but at some point the roar will become a dull purring and the idea of motherhood and apple pie(did I say that yuck!)will really not seem such a chore..(I mean the human race must go on) While women may ask men out more -technically that is not really new they had Sadie Hawkins dances back in the day(I asked my auntie about those she got this strange laugh) Anywhooe I believe that no matter how we grow, evolve or change something are just nature. An the natural instinct to pair off and make offspring will always be there.

Re: Raqi’s comments

Regarding snooze button

I agree with Raqi’s comments. What singles without children do not realize is that they are asking “can I conceive later?”, what they do not realize is that they should be asking another question also, “how old can I be and still be PHYSICALLY able to be a good parent?”. Being a parent is the hardest work one can imagine. What these people do not realize is that kids have to fed, they have to be taught, they have to be played with, they have to be chaffeured, they have to be helped with their homework, they have to have their parents participating in sports, school, and everything in their lives.

When my two boys, and my daughter were active in sports, my ex-wife and I would pass each other on the road, going from one practice to another, to a game, to a play, to another practice, to the pizza place, etc. four and five nights a week. Being a parent means BEING INVOLVED, not just can you make a baby.

Raqi my cousins friend has been trying to get pregnant for a while and turned to IVF as their last resort before looking into adoption. Needless to say, it didn’t work and now they’re out of the pocket $13,000!! I didn’t realize that was so expensive. Now she’s really down and depressed about it.

But with that said, like you, ain’t no way in hellz I would want to just be starting the rearing of a child……have child at 39/40, child will be graduating high school when you turn 58 (ouch!!). Guuurrll, can you say huge, huge generation gap?!! As it stands, my child will be graduating when I turn 41 (probably on my b-day or very close to it), and I can hardly wait!! I simply could not imagine just getting started at that point….but for those women brave enough, GO FOR IT!!!

Randy My sister is 44 with two little ones (4 and 6). She tells me all the time now…”only if I had known”. LOL They are whipping her behind.

SlimOne not only is it expensive…there is more than one egg implanted at a time, so she would stand a chance of having multiples. My friend says that would not be a problem because then she would only have to do it once…but still…better her than me.

chullato Now what if there were heterosexual unions, all the rights, but no marriage. I think that option would change the dating scene drastically.

Now this is interesting… When will the push for heterosexual civil unions start, so that those who are living together and not looking for legal marriage can get benefits?? Could that be next?

snooze button I’m 30 now, and I have no desire to have children out of wedlock but I don’t know when I’ll get married. I’m not thinking about freezing my eggs, I’ll just wait to see what unfolds with my life. If I get too old to conceive and I’m in the same situation, maybe it wasn’t meant for me to have my own child. Maybe it was meant for me to adopt someone else’s.

Raqi / Randy You both made good points and I agree. You need to be in generally good health especially when your child/ren reach the terrible two’s (You won’t need a gym membership) you can just chase them around for exercise. It continues the older they get. In my case I have had to shoot hoops, throw footballs, pitch baseballs, bait hooks, remove hooks from the fish and the kid. You need to have an abundance of energy when dealing with children. I don’t think I could handle a 2 y/o at 40+. I’d let them have their way and deal with the fall out later; not a good policy I know, but who wants to sprain their ankle chasing a toddler at that age….. it’ll take you twice as long to heal - LOL

Hope all are doing well in spite of the time change. On Topic: Honestly, I’m afraid to think of what dating will be like “in the future”. Will folks even go out? Or, will they just sit behind the computer and do everything online. I do hope that we go back to the old school where things were more personal and real. It would be scary if we moved to rely on technology even more than we do now to hook up and maintain relationships.

Foots When all the hoopla being in Mass., I was thinking this civil union thing wouldn’t be bad for ME.

  • If we are together, but I die, you are the beneficiary

  • Tax break

  • Dependents taken care of, w/o courts, child support, etc.

  • No hit on credit report for Divorce if we break up

  • Enter contracts a legally binded couple…

  • I’m sure there are downsides, but who wouldn’t want this?!

At times I’ve wondered how it would be to have a little one but I really don’t want just a baby daddy or a sperm donor but rather a husband. I’ve never even contemplated freezing my eggs and feel as though it will happen in due time if it’s meant to be….Cuz Lawd knows when I’ll ever take that walk down the aisle if at all.

    I agree with foots…kids out of wedlock is not an option for me so if it I’m never married or marry really late in life then I’ll happily adopt.

    I don’t think dating will change too much in the future. I think technology is an enabler, but if you’re raised as a traditionalist then you’ll just wait on that guy to text you, respond to your MySpace account, or whatever the latest cyberspace dating tool will be.

    I’m reading a lot of Could be baby talk may I add:

    Kids/Babies are God’s Gift. NOT every woman will have such a blessing!!

    Just b/c you are a woman, you don’t have that automatic right, for lack of a better word to birth kids.

    He will bless you when the time is right. Sooooooo many women think they can add a baby to their list of things to do or to their monthly or yearly calendars. That is so NOT the case. You can plan, arrange, or try spending all the money you want to try & create a blessing but if it’s not meant for you, It’s not going to happen.

    WORD TO THE WISE: Pray on it & if it’s meant he will bless you with such joy.

    Stress free women are more likely to become pregnant. Stress interefes women ovulation. TRUST i’m a witness to this.

    Be Calm. Be patient. & Most of all be BLESS!!!

    My son, although an idiot, tries to be the best father he can be at 17 and brings the grandbabe to the house sometimes to help take care of him. The little babe is teething now and last Thursday I was up all night with him. I had to take him down to the guest room so that he would not wake everyone else up, including his father, with his constant crying. I just cannot imagine doing this at my age. It’s funny ‘cause people tell the man and I all the time that we would have a really cute kid and he use to say ‘yeah I bet we would’. After experiencing having a baby in the house now he says ‘Probably…but I am not trying to find out’. LOL

    Alright now back to topic, I think there will always be people leaning toward traditional dating rituals just like there will be people preferring new style “techno” dating. It will just depend on the lifestyle of the two. Probably the more career oriented and technology savvy the individuals are will determine the route they take. We are talking instant gratification versus slow simmering. Whatever floats your boat.

    This used to exisit waaay waay back in the day they called it common law marriage……. I think after living together for 6 consecutive months, you were considered to have been married. This may still be legal in some states, but not in GA.

    Raqi 35 was my cut off point too. My son has lots of cousins older and younger. He’ll just have to live with my/our selfish decisions. I tried to get his dad to have another one, but he digressed as well.

    Foots / Slim I agree having a child out of wedlock is not the best way to go, but being a single has taught me that I would rather do it alone than not at all. Being a mother has soooo many rewards.

    Having a husband is no guarantee that the man will be a good husband or father. It just means he doesn’t have the option to not sign the birth certificate.

    Good morning and Happy Monday Everyone!

    Jewel’s Rules for the Dating Scene 2017 The advances of technology will not eliminate the boredom and frustration many face today. The political influence of the gay community will increase the acceptance of gay unions. The club scene will become obsolete. Yes, desperate women will pursue men more…if not for dating/marriage, for sperm donation. The continued upsurge of the divorce rate will produce more Brad & Angelinas. Online personals must include three verifiable references.

    All in all, trends are something short-lived, or an attempt to improve a current behavior, style, etc. But, the dating objectives will not change. You will still have people truly seeking a soulmate; insecure playas (male and female) incapable of honesty; rotations; people “dating” married people; people living in the now, not seeking longevity with anyone; people open about their current dating needs. Just my humble opinion.

    Raqi They say the 40s are the new 30s…well, my interpretation is that NOW I can do all the things I could not do because I was raising my child! LOL! Besides freezing eggs, IVF, what are your thoughts on sperm clinics?

    Have a Powerful, Productive, Prosperous and Positive Day!!!

    JustMe you’re absolutely right that any husband won’t necessarily make the best parent. I just hope that my maturity and age will help me chose a partner that will be potentially good at both. I have often heard moms say that they wouldn’t trade having their child for anything despite the situation (terrible baby daddy, single motherhood, etc). I can see it with my cousin and her son. At times I just sit back and watch their interaction and it’s unlike anything I’ve seen. It’s easy to be envious of that at times but it’s short-lived because we all have to play the hands we were dealt the best way we know how. And I have to give her all the props in the world because she does a great job and also has the best baby daddy i’ve ever come across.

    I think overall things may change a little. I actually believe that we may see more single Mothers by choice. Women have become very independent and career focused, and may choose to get pregnant just to get the kids. Perhaps a lot more families outside the scope of marriage…Hellz, like demi said it’s to uncertain to predict.

    You would be surprise to know that our friend Doc told Marissa that her being a part-time personal trainer can have an adverse effect on her trying to conceive. Not only does exercising excessively sometimes alter a woman’s cycle, but having too little body fat can decrease the amount of proper hormones a woman needs to conceive. So now not only does she have age counting against her chances but her stressful career along with her extracurricular side work also has an affect.

    SeanJ…drawing up contracts? WOW. Seems somewhat impersonal doesn’t it. I have heard of women saying that they would ask a willing donor to “help” them out, but drawing up a contract?

    If I had any question about whether people should become parents later in life, they were answered yesterday. I have a 2 year old grandson. Yesterday I babysat while my son and daughter-in-law went to a baby shower for her (number 2 in another month). Two hours on a playground, in the heat, going from swing, to slide, to purple dinosaur, to swing, to slide, etc. My azz was dragging. I drove back to ATL, called my SO and said I was going back to my place, eat a sandwich, and get in teh bed and watch TV and I would call her tonight. Twenty years ago, no problem, but now the thought of all that parenting involves scares me to death. My sons were two years apart, and I was a light sleeper so I got the job of getting up with them. I remember one time thinking that it had literally been eight months since I had not gotten up at least once during the night.

    When I read that some celebrity has a child at 65 or 70, I get angry because hellz he won’t even be around for his kid’s graduation, unless he is in a wheelchair…much less have been an active, participating parent.

    Sadie Hawkins…WOW! Kym You took me waaaay back. LOL!

    SeanJ I knew a woman who was seriously considering that option. The question I posed to her was, are you really considering the child? I tried to be understanding because I had already given birth. I know this is an internal desire most women have. But, to do this just for the sake of satisfying your own needs is rather selfish. The birth experience is just a few hours. You are a parent for the rest of your life.

    Slim I thank God everyday for my son, he is such a joy, a challenge, a blessing, such a boy child, he curious, he’s sweet, he’s bad, but most of all he Mama’s Love! When he goes to visit his “thing” for the summer, I am lost for the first week or two. My life revolves around his wants, needs and (sometimes)desires; when those have been met, I can think about JustMe. It’s a tough job, but I would not trade it for all of the tea in China! He will graduate from HS in 2013 (if not sooner).

    Foots I think every woman tries to make an educated decision regarding a potential BD, but like my Granny told me… You never know what a monkey eat until he sh!ts

    If CLM was to become law again, I think it would make more people think twice before shacking up. If they knew that in 6 months and 1 day this would be their spouse, they might not be so ready to get the keys to the crib.

    Musing I don’t know if there will be more single mothers by choice, perhaps by circumstance. Like GA.man said, women aren’t going to be jumping at every dude just because he has male parts for babymaking, but wouldn’t they want two loving parents (in a relationship with each other) for their child IF the situation was available? Would someone turn that situation away in order to choose to have a child alone?

    @ Foots..i dont know..adoption i think is more for married couples..But you have some dudes and even some females these days…that are not being parentes to kids that they have had. The arrangement that these women want is something that is for someone mature enough and have come to the realization that being married may not be that is going to happen but still want kids.

    Some things sound good on paper, but are pure bullshyte in reality. Kids really do need two parents, and no piece of paper, or contractual agreement is going to change that. All of us are a mural of our life experiences, and it is an absolute truth that kids ARE going to miss out on some very important things with only one parent, no matter how hard that parent trys. They might survive, they might even prosper, but they will do without and they will feel a sense of loss at some point.

    I was not the child of a divorce, but my father died when I was seven. When my own kids came along, I realized just how much I had been denied by not having two living, viable parents that were actually active in my life. I ultimately found myself living out my lost childhood through my children, and that was not fair to them.

    There are way too many people thinking of their own needs and wants, with no consideration or thought toward the lives they are going to be responsible for. Adoption is okay for a single parent, because that is a life they can change…but choosing to be a single parent means choosing to deny a child all that child could and should have.

    Here’s a big difference though… That dude doesn’t have a specific amount of time in which he can have a child like the woman does. What if her biological clock is on it’s last tick, but he still has a lot of time left? Would he want to wait to have kids until he found the situation that works best for him and his future child? I’m actually thinking of how the dude would fare in this situation. For some reason, I think it would be harder on him to make and go through with a decision like that…

    I am all for people adopting because that is helping to provide a life for a child that has come into an unfortunate situation. But sperm banks I am leery of. As a mother of two I know that the genetic contribution from the parents is a funny thang. I see traits in my kids from me and their fathers and it ain’t always pretty…but those are the men that I chose to procreate with…so that’s on me. But to have a kid with the invisible and not know the personality of him nor his family traits…you don’t know what the heck you are getting. I know you can info like educational back ground and all that but…

    I know adoption is pretty much the same thing but I am all for helping a kid.

    Totally forgetting the legal and financial implications, the answer would still be HELLZ NO. That would be a child of mine, not some magical ‘jelly’ that would give a woman a child. Some men seem to think that that it is a badge of their verility to have as many kids as possible with their DNA. That is selfish crap with no consideration for the children. (and as much as I really do like George Forman, what kind of selfish, egotistical, inconsiderate crap is it to name six of your children after yourself. If you have some need for preserving your heritage, just have a friggin statue of yourself erected…good grief people use your head, not your ego sometimes).

    Randyt I kind of agree with you. My father died one month before I turned three (and I’m the baby of four). Now, I’m raising my child by myself (but for very different reasons…she has a deadbeat donor). As I have stated before, he displayed very good fatherly-like qualities before she came along, then fell off b/c I wouldn’t take him back, although I have tried many times to get him to be a part of her life. I don’t try to live out the what I missed thru my child in a physical sense (b/c I honestly don’t think I missed anything physical, just the genetic male input). What I do try to do though, is try to give her a mans’ input and point of view (thru men we know and respect), and not let her get away with the games that I got away with….been there, done that..don’t even try it!!! I wish that he was more mature in his parenting abilities, but to be quite honest, even if he was around, I think it would do more harm than good! So what’s a single mom to do (besides what I’ve already stated)?!!

    Hey Sexione and GAMAN

    This is not an indictment of single moms, I think they have the toughest job on Earth and the ones who become responsible (as many on this blog) are heroes in my opinion, regardless of choices that may have been perhaps unwise.

    My concern here is being a single person who chooses to become a parent without consideration for the child that he/she is about to conceive.

    I have some major heartburn about “sperm donors” (not the ones in a clinic, I am talking about deadbeat dads). Children deserve better.

    GA.man My parents got divorced, and my mom raised me as a single mom. But what RandyT was speaking of was CHOOSING to do it on your own. That’s not the same as raising your children alone and (doing a good job of it) because of the circumstances that were dealt to you. My mother wanted us to be raised in a two-parent household, but my daddy was crazy, so she decided to divorce him and therefore raise us mostly alone. And yes, I have much love for her.

    I can barely describe the dating scene in 2007, so I’m not going to attempt to mess with 2017.

    35 was my cutoff for having children too. I’ll be 37 this year ;)

    Seriously, I’ve always said that if the baby doesn’t come naturally - it wasn’t happening. I felt that way back when I wanted children. In my late 20’s I toyed with ‘contract sperm donor’ idea - just because I didn’t think I would get married in time to have my children in time. But then I considered the child - personally, I felt it was selfish to bring a child into the world on purpose with no father.

    “I actually believe that we may see more single Mothers by choice.” I don’t believe any mother is single by choice. Most single moms, whether they admit it or not, would prefer to be in a loving, nurturing, supportive marriage. Their situation is a result or circumstance not choice. Additionally, when you have a child together you’re connected to that person for life, regardless of written contracts or verbal agreements. You’re fooling yourself if you believe in the “no strings attached” theory when it comes to children.

    The only real issue I have with my son’s “thing” is financial I’m not putting a dayum vest on either As hard as I work, he thinks that I should just handle the $$ aspect of raising his child since I make a decent living…….. WTFE Other than that, he stays in touch with our son almost daily.

    Just Me “You are right I would rather be married, but peace of mind is priceless.” I’m of the opinion that it’s better for a child to be raised in a single parent household than it is for them to be reared in a traditional setting if an atmosphere of discord is created when both parents are together. One functional adult is always better than two dysfunctional parents. Sometimes you can do a better job apart than you can together.

    ‘Sup Blog

    I do think that dating and relationships will continue to evolve, but some things will always be a constant: marriage and divorce. I’m not married, don’t have any kids and am in my mid 30s. Sure, I’d love to have kids, but I’ve also decided that if it doesn’t happen, I’ll be ok! Adoption is certainly a possibility, or just being that fun auntie/cousin with the cool a$$ husband who traveled the world and brought back cool gifts to all of the kids in the family. Hey, I’m not home long enough each day to take care of a puppy, so I don’t have one. Obviously, if I had a child, my life would have to change. But, I would only want to have a child when I felt like making that change would be good for both of us…no regrets and no resentment. That’s real love!

    Lunchtime observation: One of the biggest mistakes I see women continuing to make is taking her man’s or any man’s willingness to compromise as a sign of being vulnerable or weak. What the hell is that all about? When are we going to stop playing mind games? Why present someone with a situation to have to compromise and then take it as them being weak when they do? Either you want them to do what you want or you don’t. Stop playing freaking mind games and trying to see how far you can push a person before they falter. Just dang ignorant. Some people aren’t happy no matter what. Man I swear.

    Joke…

    With four daughters and one son always dashing to school activities and part-time jobs, our schedule was hectic.

    To add to this, we kept running out of household supplies.

    I instructed them all to let me know when they used the last of any item by writing it down on a note pad on the refrigerator.

    As a reminder, I wrote at the top: “IF WE ARE OUT OF IT, WRITE IT DOWN.”

    When I checked the pad a few days later, to my delight I found the following message:

    “MOM, YOU MAY BE A BIT OLD-FASHIONED, BUT YOU ARE NOT ‘OUT OF IT.”’

It’s better for the child and definantly selfsih of women trying to do things their way and just wanting to have a child without taking the child’s interest into consideration. You know how that whole eve thing went when she tried to step out her role and so things her own way. Didn’t work out too well.

    Jewel I took Belly Dance for a year and it changes so much about the way you walk, your posture, and even the way you dance normally. The best part is the body awareness that develops, that translates from the boardroom to the bedroom. I’d say that for all of my dance classes, jazz, tap, hip-hop, and pole. Oh yeah, and it was fun and good exercise too, it sure beats the gym for variety.

I do feel you however, I don’t want a “neck down” man, no matter how “good” a man he is. I prefer the combination inner and outer attractiveness. It may be a little harder to find, though….

    Sorry Wise, we’ll try to behave better!!

    Raqi I have a friend like that in the “D” She married this bad boy after her beat her and bragged about it for years, had a few kids by him and basically supported him from day 1. When she finally got the gumption to leave him, he destroyed her house on the inside and left it in an unlivable condition. When she found out he was expecting another baby……. she wanted him back. Go Figure! The guy she was dating before him took care of her 2 kids that were not his, treatedher like a queen and she 86’d him almost immediately! Go Figure!

    now sheepishly looking at the blog rules but not before I get me a drink to ease the pain…….

    The First Parent

    by Bill Cosby

    Whenever your kids are out of control, you can take comfort from the thought that even God’s omnipotence did not extend to his kids.

    After creating Heaven and Earth, God created Adam and Eve. And the first thing He said to them was: “Don’t.”

    “Don’t what?”, Adam replied.

    “Don’t eat the forbidden fruit.”

    “Forbidden fruit? Really? Where is it?”

    “It’s over there,” said God, wondering why He hadn’t stopped after making the elephants.

    A few minutes later God saw the kids having an apple break and He was angry.

    “Didn’t I tell you not to eat that fruit?” the First Parent asked.

    “Uh huh,” Adam replied.

    “Then why did you?”

    “I dunno,” Adam answered.

    God’s punishment was that Adam and Eve should have children of their own.

    Thus the pattern was set and it has never changed. But there is reassurance in this story.

    If you have persistently and lovingly tried to give them wisdom and they haven’t taken it, don’t be hard on yourself.

    If God had trouble handling children, what makes you think it would be a piece of cake for you?

    Great truths about life that adults have learned

  • Raising teenagers is like nailing Jell-O to a tree.

  • There is always alot to be thankful for if you take the time to look. For example: I’m sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don’t hurt.

  • One reason to smile is that every seven minutes of every day someone in an aerobics class pulls a hamstring.

  • Car sickness is the feeling you get when the monthly payment is due.

  • The best way to keep kids at home is to make a pleasant atmosphere and let the air out of their tires.

  • Families are like fudge….mostly sweet, with a few nuts.

  • Today’s mighty oak is just yesterday’s nut that held its ground.

  • Laughing helps. It’s like jogging on the inside.

  • Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy.

  • My mind not only wanders; sometimes it leaves completely.

  • If you can remain calm, you just don’t have all the facts.

    There was a woman who was pregnant with twins, and shortly before they were due, she had an accident and went into a coma. Her husband was away on business, and unable to be reached. While in the coma, she gave birth to her twins, and the only person around to name her children was her brother.

    When the mother came out of her coma to find she had given birth and that her brother had named the twins, she became very worried, because he wasn’t a very bright guy. She was sure he had named them something absurd or stupid.

    When she saw her brother she asked him about the twins.

    He said, “The first one was a girl.”

    The mother: “What did you name her?!?”

    Brother: “Denise!”

    The Mom: “Oh, wow, that’s not bad! What about the second one?”

    Brother: “The second one was a boy.”

    The Mom: “Oh, and what did you name him?”

    Brother: “Denephew.”

    The bus driver said: “That’s the ugliest baby I’ve ever seen.”

    In a huff, the woman slammed her fare into the fare box and took an aisle seat near the rear of the bus.

    The man seated next to her sensed that she was agitated and asked her what was wrong.

    “The bus driver insulted me,” she fumed.

    The man sympathized and said: “Why, he’s a public servant and shouldn’t say things to insult passengers.”

    “You’re right,” she said. “I think I’ll go back up there and give him a piece of my mind.”

    My final post of 3/12. I thought I’d leave the sistahs of the blog with one of my pearls of wisdom-

    Lesson of the Day:

    When going to the mall for a shopping excursion in metro Atlanta do not leave your home without a can of pepper spray(police strength) and a Smith & Wesson. These items will ward off all potential adult female molesters who may be around while you’re trying on your new pair of “Apple Bottoms” in the dressing room of a clothing establishment. It will keep them away from you and out of your personal stall.

    Have a great evening and stay safe-

    The lifeguard told the mother to make her young son stop urinating in the pool.

    “Everyone knows,” the mother lectured him, “that from time to time, young children will urinate in a pool.”

    “Oh really?” said the lifeguard, “from the diving board!?!?”

    Top Ten Things You’ll Never Hear a Dad Say

  • Well, how ‘bout that?… I’m lost! Looks like we’ll have to stop and ask for directions.

  • You know Pumpkin, now that you’re thirteen, you’ll be ready for unchaperoned car dates. Won’t that be fun?

  • I noticed that all your friends have a certain “up yours” attitude … I like that.

  • Here’s a credit card and the keys to my new car — GO CRAZY.

  • What do you mean you wanna play football? Figure skating not good enough for you, son?

  • Your Mother and I are going away for the weekend … you might want to consider throwing a party.

  • Well, I don’t know what’s wrong with your car. Probably one of those doo-hickey thingies — you know — that makes it run or something. Just have it towed to a mechanic and pay whatever he asks.

  • No son of mine is going to live under this roof without an earring — now quit your belly-aching, and let’s go to the mall.

  • Whaddya wanna go and get a job for? I make plenty of money for you to spend.

  • Father’s Day? aahh — don’t worry about that — it’s no big deal.

  • I’m out….everybody be good!!!
