Lets see...
I went to school 7 hours a day 5 days a week,
worked 2 jobs to make enough money to go to college
kept my self out of trouble
My parents,
Lets see...
Dad started working in the lumber camps at age 14, the army from 41 to 46 married my mother at age 19 while home on leave
absolutely faithful to her for 59 years,, until the day he died.
Mom, Worked on a farm with her 3 sisters and 5 brothers, went to school and was top of her class, married my father at age 18, raised 6 kids, was absolutely faithful to my dad.
I put my life and my family up against anyones.
Biigs,I know I’m stepping into forbidden ground here,so forgive me if I’m out of line.
How can you be absolutely CERTAIN that your parents were faithful to each other for that 59 years they were together?
I ask that because all through my childhood I just assumed dad was always the loyal and faithful husband since he was an excellent dad to us.
Well,after dad passed,mom sort of hinted to me that just MAYBE good old dad had committed an indiscretion or two during their forty five years of marital bliss.
As an adult,that really didn’t come as too much of a shock.In balance,I certainly wouldn’t have wanted another father besides the one I had,fallible as he may have been at times.
19 and 18??? So your Dad was dating your Mom when he was 18 and she was 17??? I assume that they didn’t just meet the instant she turned 18 and then got married??? I’ll assume that there was a lengthy courtship??? So by modern standards and the law if your Dad even kissed your Mom before she turned 18, then guess what????? Please feel free to set the facts straight if any of my assumptions are incorrect.
