Motherhood must come before you are a mother.

Statistics have long touted that economically, life is easier for adults when they come together to live and eke out a living. For most of us this agreement is sealed in marriage. This statistic is also validated through the most heated debate in recent years of Same-Sex-marriage. Most laws recognize legal marriage as a union between a man and woman. To break this down to just ANY union of adults is just plain selfish. Obviously, to alleviate this problem, new laws must be enacted. But this is not the topic of discussion. When two people come to together in marriage, at least in the United States, it LEGALLY binds and obligates both parties, especially the husband to care for his legally responsible family, by law. In other words, it legally reinforces his verbal promise to support his family. Marriage is more than the wedding and it takes MORE than just love for a successful one. Here is the kicker. Why is it that so many women today give men a free-pass on their support obligations by having unprotected sex BEFORE marriage? I mean, if the woman does not understand that SHE is usually the one who GETS pregnant, then what hope does she and her offspring have? In her fulfillment in the myth of sexual equality, she exposes herself and her children to a crippled start in life. Did you know that it is a woman's responsibility to make sure she has exhausted every means to ensure she has set provision for her offspring? Today in the United States this is even easier through our laws of child support. Yet many women give away this right, out-right. Think about it.
