I think as a society we have overlooked the importance of a Trousseau. It seems appropriate that as you step into adulthood you should do so with an adult wardrobe so that people take you seriously. I think it should be like a graduation party or a mar mitzvah for older teens. A socially supported rite of passage

This was the cherry on the shit cake. He was not worried about harming her, just harming someone else's 'piece'.

This would piss me off. I think this only works if you know in advance the Bride does not want to do any wedding planning.

A kid's world is...small. As a little kid s/he will not realize what is going on and might worry if they hear yelling. (I don't know how loud your sex life gets :P) As a older tween they might find himself aroused by hearing it (a normal physiological reaction) which in turn could be upsetting.

Mothers need to declare all income (including child support) and pay taxes for them.

You don't think that a lifestyle of 156K before taxes is not extremely different from the lifestyle that they enjoy when they visit him?

Just a heads up - Institutions (religious or not) that don't adapt to the needs of their members, end up dying, or wallowing in corruption (like the Catholic church).

I thought Grace Kelly's marriage was a political move? Also, this sounds cruel, but Nicole Kidman is much older and less patrician than Grace Kelly. I think this makes it harder to show how entranced people were by her story - she was an American Princess.

California maybe slightly obese, but the Bay Area is extremely thin. Even though I was born here, I sometimes feel like the odd person out. I sometimes think I should move to Atlanta, so I would have other fat people to talk to.
