What Exactly Is Marriage??

        "Marriage is when you get to keep your girl and don't have
         to give her back to her parents!"
                                                -Eric, 6

        "When somebody's been dating for a while, the boy might
         propose to the girl. He says to her, 'I'll take you for 
         a whole life, or at least until we have kids and get
         divorced, but you got to do one particular thing for me.'
         Then she says yes, but she's wondering what the thing is
         and whether it's naughty or not. She can't wait to find
         out."
                                                -Anita, 9

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, 9

        "My mother says to look for a man who is kind....That's
         what I'll do....I'll find somebody who's kinda tall 
         and handsome."
                                                -Carolyn, 8

Concerning the Proper Age to Get Married.

        "Eighty-four! Because at that age, you don't have to
         work anymore, and you can spend all your time loving
         each other in your bedroom."
                                                -Carolyn, 8

        "Once I'm done with kindergarten, I'm going to find 
         me a wife!"
                                                -Bert, 5

How Did Your Mom and Dad Meet??

        "They were at a dance party at a friend's house. Then
         they went for a drive, but their car broke down....
         It was a good thing, because it gave them a chance to
         find out about their values."
                                                -Lottie, 9

        "My father was doing some strange chores for my mother.
         They won't tell me what kind."
                                                -Jeremy, 8

What Do Most People Do on a Date??

        "On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and
         that usually gets them interested enough to go for a
         second date."
                                                -Martin, 10

        "Many daters just eat pork chops and french fries and
         talk about love."
                                                -Craig, 9

When Is It Okay to Kiss Someone??

        "You should never kiss a girl unless you have enough
         bucks to buy her a big ring and her own VCR, 'cause
         she'll want to have videos of the wedding."
                                                -Allan, 10

        "Never kiss in front of other people. It's a big
         embarrassing thing if anybody sees you....If nobody
         sees you, I might be willing to try it with a handsome
         boy, but just for a few hours."
                                                -Kally, 9

The Great Debate: Is It Better to Be Single or Married??

        "You should ask the people who read Cosmopolitan!"
                                                -Kirsten, 10

        "It's better for girls to be single but not for boys.
         Boys need somebody to clean up after them!"
                                                -Anita, 9

        "It gives me a headache to think about that stuff. I'm
         just a kid. I don't need that kind of trouble."
                                                -Will, 7
