     Kids still say the darndest things, and they are often astute observers!

KIDS AND CUPID--ADVICE!?!
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." Kally, age 9
"No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry.
God decides it all way before, and you got to find out later who you're
stuck with." Kirsten, age 10

Concerning the proper age to get married:
"Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then!"
Cam, age 10
"No age is good to get married at.... You got to be a fool to get married!"
Freddie, age 6

How can a stranger tell if two people are married?
"Married people usually look happy to talk to other people." Eddie, age 6
"You might have to guess based on whether they seem to be yelling at the
same kids." Derrick, age 8

What do you think your mom and dad have in common?
"Both don't want no more kids." Lori, age 8

What do most people do on a date?
"Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each
other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough."
Lynnette, age 8

What the children would do on a first date that was turning sour:
"I'd run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the newspapers
and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns." Craig, age 9

When is it okay to kiss someone?
"The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with
that." Curt, age 7
"The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them
and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do." Howard, age 8

The great debate: Is it better to be single or married?
"It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need somebody to
clean up after them!" Anita, age 9
"Single is better ... for the simple reason that I wouldn't want to change
no diapers... Of course, if I did get married, I'd figure something out.
I'd just phone my mother and have her come over for some coffee and
diaper-changing." Kirsten, age 10

How to make a marriage work:
"Tell your wife that she looks pretty even if she looks like a truck!"
Ricky, age 7

How would the world be different if people didn't get married?
"There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?" Kelvin, age 8
"You can be sure of one thing - the boys would come chasing after us just
the same as they do now!" Roberta, age 7
