    I think being smart enough to have her hubby sign a pre-nup so if they ever did get a divorce he wouldn't be entitled to her fortune is a pretty smart move and a pretty good role model

    Don't Republican 'family values' assume that when people get married the intention…

    The Duggar Family Web Site is dripping with references to God and love and Jesus - they say she lost her first baby which was conceived while she was supposedly on the Pill, and that prompted them to decide they would use no more contraception but accept all the babies…

    A sanctuary taking in the entire Antarctic is clearly against the spirit of the agreement. Australia will officially recognise this if it is serious in wanting to be a part of a resolution of this issue, do you not agree?

    Make your mind up - is it 'internationally recognised waters'…

    Gosh, less than two years to go and I'll be quaint and interesting!

    I must say, I'm not sure what “diplomatic solution” to the dispute over Japan’s whaling activities is possible; the only solution that I can see is for Japan to come to its senses and stop killing whales.

    recognised international waters

    Japan hunts in the Antarctic Whale Sanctuary. Internationally recognised as a Whale Sanctuary, not as a happy hunting ground for people who don't care how much suffering they cause so long as the end product 'tastes good'.

    Those that cannot (send their kids to international school), and have their kids in public school, have a much greater challenge.

    Not really; all you have to do is talk to the child, read to him, spend time with him. In your own language. What I hope any parent would…

    If the parents are stupid and ignorant, the failure to pass on the language is hardly 'deliberate', is it?

    Parents who are too selfish or lazy to pass on their language even though they have the wherewithal to do so, I agree should be shot. Or maybe they're already punished…

    These fathers, and sometimes mothers, who deliberately deny their children the biggest advantage they could bestow on them because they think they're so clever speaking their rather ordinary Japanese want shooting.

    I agree that children who can be raised bi- or tri-lingually, should be. But I think you're going…

    Divorcees are people who made a choice, which in most cases, was the right choice for them.

    Not always. I know several who had the 'choice' thrust upon them.

    It's got very little to do with compatibility and more to do with compromise and sacrifice.

    It's a lot easier to…
