Marriage is an absolute legal contract that comes with tax benefits, survivor benefits, etc.

There is a religious aspect to it, but there is also a state issue to it. If they are ok getting married, they should move out and live as a couple.

This is what happens when folks go all PC and fuzzy wuzzy. Legal actions have legal consequences.

So Sayeth the government. Your marrigae rights BYW then are what the government says they are?

It was only when government figured out how to tax it marriage fell under government domain rather than GOD's. Believe it or not marriages involving disabled couples or one spouse becoming disabled before marriage have a far better track record than ones who are married and a spouse becomes disabled during their marriage.

This is what happens when folks go all PC and fuzzy wuzzy. Legal actions have legal consequences.

It's not a matter of PC. It's a matter of realities. One poster says move them in with their parents. If the two were born as Menopause babies let's say at the mother being 45 or so and the couple in question is 25 that makes the parents how old then? 70 by my math.

It is a reality parents now in these times of medical advances that often the birth parents will not outlive their disabled kids they gave birth too. If the kids have no siblings or none who can take on their care what happens? It's a serious issue.

Marriage in a case like this isn't as complicated as paper shufflers are making it become. And as another poster stated very often two persons with disabilities who marry are actually strengthened. Persons with disabilities just like others have their strengths and weaknesses.

I'm disabled as is my wife. Her strengths cover my weaknesses and vice versa. Her disability is 100% physical. Mine is partly cognitive abilities involved in some aspects but is not physical. I have also stood up to paper shufflers who thought the state had more rights & authority on the issue of granting permission for my wifes care than our marriage was supposed to give us.
