    Depends where you live, if you live in a country with a real independent welfare system it shouldn't matter, if you live in a country where the welfare is tied to religion/local community then it's an irresponsible thing to do.

    Would you work for an intelligence agency given the chance?


    Why should the welfare system have anything to do with it?

    Because one of the arguments behind 'marriages are to protect the kids' is to ensure that kids and mothers have some sort of protection. In most developed countries, laws exist to prevent unwed fathers from not paying child support or alimony if they can, in many developed countries, a welfare state exists that protects single mothers and their children. So having children out of wedlock is not a problem in these countries.

    Having children out of wedlock in a place like India for example would be a different issue.

    I wouldn't say that getting the father to pay child support was part of the welfare state as such.

    I somewhat support marriage, it does provide some kind of stability.

    Honey Monster, Big Bird.....The man, man!

    Not to mention translated from Moroccan "olive head" (as in black olives) or "Blacky" or "Big nose"  Or 'bitch' << but I like that one.

    Oh yeah, and "Bint Soq" which basically means daughter of the market place, which is an insult in Morocco. 

    So no, no embarrassing nicknames at all.  Tongue

    How much is a hundred quid? I'm in Australia and have no idea what the UK currency is like compared to ours... if it's anything like $100 no, but if it was a $1000 definitely.  grin12

    So question... At what age did you stop wetting the bed?
