I try to speak my points of view about black America and how I feel about black men and the role that black men should play in their lives with their children and in their lives with their women.

I think the part of media that romanticizes criminal behavior things that a person will say against women profanity being gangster having multiple children with multiple men and women and not wanting to is prevalent. When you look at the majority of shows on television they placate that kind of behavior.

Mothers - especially single mothers - are heroic in their efforts to raise our nation's children but men must also take responsibility for their children and recognize the impact they have on their families' well-being.

As long as you know men are like children you know everything!

It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.

On bad days I think I'd like to be a plastic surgeon who goes to Third World countries and operates on children in villages with airlifts and then I think 'Yeah right I'm going to go back to undergraduate school and take all the biology I missed and then go to medical school.' No. No.

When families save they can get through emergencies like a bad harvest or a medical emergency. But it's more than that. They can also plan for the future gradually saving up for a small business or for their children's school tuition.

Eating disorders can have serious medical and psychological consequences which left unchecked can kill. Parents should address this issue and ask their children to discuss how they feel about themselves.

Three of my children are medical doctors they know at least a hundred times as much about your body as my grandfather knew but they don't know much more about soul than he did.

I've been advised not to have any more children for medical reasons so that's it - the shop has closed even though I would have loved a daughter.

My father was a Catholic but my mother wasn't. She had to do that weird deal you do as a Catholic - they deign to sanction your marriage and you have to bring your children up as Catholics.

I'm not that big a fan of marriage as an institution and I don't know why women need to have children to be seen as complete human beings.

I've always wanted to be independent and answer for myself. That probably is the part of me I would class to be feminist. I'd like to have children marriage I have a bit of an issue with.

I'd love to have children and I think marriage is great I really do.

Do not miss your children's childhood. Do not be away 200 nights a year as I was. Do not put strains on your marriage or family.

Marriage encourages the men and women who together create life to unite in a bond for the protection of children.

Every society in the history of man has upheld the institution of marriage as a bond between a man and a woman. Why? Because society is based on one thing: that society is based on the future of the society. And that's what? Children. Monogamous relationships.

I am hoping this is my year to have children. I understand that I am possibly more European in my views of marriage. I am not going to say I'm not going to get married but it's not my priority.

Who of us is mature enough for offspring before the offspring themselves arrive? The value of marriage is not that adults produce children but that children produce adults.

My argument is simple which is that for several thousand years in Western civilization marriage has been the union of one man and one woman. Research is overwhelming that children need mothers and fathers.

The value of marriage is not that adults produce children but that children produce adults.

And that is why marriage and family law has emphasized the importance of marriage as the foundation of family addressing the needs of children in the most positive way.

Marriage is a lot of things - a source of love security the joy of children but it's also an interpersonal battlefield and it's not hard to see why: Take two disparate people toss them together in often-confined quarters add the stresses of money and kids - now lather rinse repeat for the rest of your natural life. What could go wrong?

Straight couples don't have to be monogamous to be married or married to be monogamous. Monogamy no more defines marriage than the presence of children does. Monogamy isn't compulsory and its absence doesn't invalidate a marriage.
