There is long, historic precedent for marriage at an early age.

Accompanied by a much earlier death rate for both parties, often around the time their oldest child was finally capable of taking over the farm. Back then, many women died in childbirth around the sixth or seventh child, or even earlier.

That said, I'm not in favor of over intellectualizing the mate selection process; but I believe there could and should be reasonable practical marriage education for young people—life goals, mate selection, effective communication, conflict resolution, finance and budgeting, childrearing issues, etc— developed as a curriculum in churches.

I’ve said for years that EVERYTHING liberals do, EVERYTHING, they do to increase their odds of having sex.

But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea.

Mattew 18:6

Who would be in charge of that reasonable practical marriage education?

Exactly the problem, and perhaps the reason why it hasn't been done in Protestant churches. At least Catholics have their version, Pre-Cana (God only knows what Francis will do to disable that), and many parishes also support a premarital version of the Marriage Encounter program.

“Governor Mitt Romney instituted a curriculum of this crap when he ran Massachusetts,”

Makes sense. Get those little girls ready for when some scummy pervert old Mormon guy gets a hankering to add another wife to his harem. Makes perfect sense.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
