How do you decide who to marry ?

Not sure if this one has been posted before but I believe it deserves another showcasing if it indeed has because it is just hilarious.


HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY (written by kids)


You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.

-- Alan, age 10



No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with.

-- Kristen, age 10



WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?


Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then.

-- Camille, age 10



No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married.

-- Freddie, age 6 (very wise for his age)



HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?



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 any 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 (isn't she a treasure)



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

-- Martin, age 10



WHAT WOULD YOU 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?



When they're rich.

-- Pam, age 7



The la w 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



IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?



It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them.

-- Anita, age 9 (bless you child)



HOW WOULD THE WORL D BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED?


There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?

-- Kelvin, age 8



And the #1 Favorite is........



HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?



Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a truck.

-- Ricky, age 10

This doesn't feel real to me, I think it's fake.

But still funny lol

awww yeah probably, but still funny

wow I think we found the worlds most cynical kids for this questionare

Are we sure that these guys havent been brainwashed by mommy or daddy?



funny none the less thanks for sharing Jaded

That's awesome! I love when kids react to adult type questions...

I don't think it's fake, for one why would someone fake this and for 2 I've seen surveys like this done before... Why someone would try to bunk this is strange to me...

And I'd have to agree with another comment made about how kids usually re verb what they learn from their parents... You can get a good feel for the parents through the children just by the way the children act, the words they use and the way they carry themselves... hehe...

Good post Jaded!

I don't believe in marriage.
Nothing kills a half-way decent relationship like marriage.
I mean, in some cases it makes sense, sure.
But fairy-tale love is so rare, that it's almost...well...a fairy tale.
However, you seem to be doing well my love.
I bet you just want to go back home though.

'It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them'.

Classic - that girl knows her place already (somewhere near the kitchen) - bless!

Brei.

That one my favorite.

Brings me back to my childhood.

I couldn't agree with you more, I was never one to really romanticize it and thought I had a good grasp on what it's all about but yeah ....
I'm tryin my best!

Actually I don't think it's a fake. I seem to remember reading those in a rather old book "Kids say the darnedest things" by Art Linkletter. I used to have a copy of it a long time ago.

Here are some others in a similar vein (maybe Jugular I'm not sure (chuckle))
Similar ones

lol! that one's got to be my favourite! it totally cracked me up!

It just looks fake to me, the reason they would fake it is all in the joke! get some funny jokes and put children behind it and it is even more funny.

Can't be sure thou. Need proof lol.
