1. Either you were definitely a single child, or just never was around your brothers and sisters.
2. You're a product of what you're claiming is wrong, which is bad parenting.
3. You're rarely ever around any children of any age and have no kids yourself.
4. Or you're a mentally challenged tortoise....
I'm the oldest of 7, and I've seen probably the whole 'I'm gonna marry you, you're not gonna marry me" scenario more times than I can count. In fact, I've done the same thing when I was a bit younger, many times.
It goes along the same lines as kissing. Most kids from the ages of 4-9 find kissing rather gross. So if I was a parent, filming my daughter or son, and one of them was trying to kiss the other, instead of laughing at the fact my son is terrified of being kissed (me knowing that it's definitely NOT gonna cause psychological trauma) I'm supposed to look at it as if the little girl is trying to somehow rape him? That's what you're claiming pretty much. That these kids using 'adult' terms are 'acting' out 'adult' themes and it's "Disturbing" because it's gonna have such profound effects on their actual adult life........?
Seriously bro?
Do yourself a favor and don't have any children, because I can already see that if you do (or somehow already do) that you'd most likely be the culprit in causing severe psychological harm for the mere pointless idea that kids playing around and doing what every kid I've ever been around is totally wrong and-what was that term again, 'Disturbing'?

On television and in the movies what is the very first thing the couple does after they get married?
"How come we can get married but we can't kiss?"
"Can i sleep in the bed with my husband/wife??"
When you have to answer THOSE questions it isn't so "cute/funny" anymore and nine time out of ten you'll wish you never opened Pandoras box.
Go on a honeymoon after the reception. Also they probably already took care of what your thinking long before they are married. \
Who says you can't kiss?
You can sleep in a bed with whoever you want. What does this have to do with your op?
PTSD is Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (that means stuff that happened to you in your past). How do you think you get this?

I really think you need to find that psych. You have a really messed up outlook on the world and you could use some help. If I had to guess you have depression at the least, probably from PTSD, maybe you have been diagnosed and given pills but refuse to take them? Or maybe you haven't seen someone yet? My girlfriend suffered through depression and trust me, seeing someone will help you so please do. Not trying to offend, just terrified of the thought of you raising a child one day.

You are terrified at the thought of me raising a child because i wouldn't let children under ten argue over marriage??

So you assume this was a one time thing? What if it's a normal occurrence? Can you answer that please?

If ten minutes are too much for you just watch the first three minutes.

Children talk and think about marriage, this is perfectly normal. When they are having an all out fight over marriage (especially at this age) where they are both screaming and one is crying it is time for an adult to end that conversation. Everyone is saying this video is funny and cute but the boy was hysterically crying and very upset. It was needless and many underlying issues became visible to me upon my watching it. Everyone is entitled to their opinion (as am i) so if you disagree with my thread do you really feel that five different post declaring that is necessary?
I know how to read and i've stated my opinion. If all you have are negative things to say about my thread why are you here? There are plenty of other threads for you to pass your time with.edit on 7/23/2011 by ProphecyPhD because: parenthesis
