Congrats Bob!!!I assume she'll be wearing a beautiful, classic white gown and you a skin-tight, sleeveless, sequined and glittered magician's blouse?
Maybe they had already had plans to get married?shit guys....this isn't the 1920's. This sort of thing happens in almost every family. I bet half of you guys ragging on him either have an immediate family member that this happened to...or yourself personally.
Dude, having a kid out of wedlock should never be acceptable. Kids born to single parents statistically do poorly. Its not fair to the kid, I mean why didn't mommy and daddy love each other and respect each other enough to make a solid commitment. Kids need stability and consistency along with love and respect. Having a kid out of wedlock shows none of these.
What kind of kids turn out with parents that hate each other, married for 20 years, & fighting all the time?
You're saying that the only "real" way to commit is to participate in some old religious ritual in "modern" wrapping?
YOu thought of any names for your kid yet? How about Bodybuilding.com?
No Im not, no way dude, but when kids our involved we cannot go around trying out new ways of parenting. The couple has to live together under the same roof and stay monogomous for at least the first 12 years. If people think they can wing some new alternative way of parenting they are kidding themselves.There will be casualties. The main reason for having the legal 'paper" marriage is to protect the mother or father financially which also protects the child financially in case of divorce or death. Also, there is also the stigma of being a "bastard" which is still a reality in many cultures especially religious ones. Why give the kid this kind of burden.
that you & the little gal are not only going to get married in Vegas in October, but that you two are also expecting an addition to the Chick clan.
