I don’t think the school should have gone to the length of counting the days. She did get married shortly thereafter, so when the child was born, it was legitimate.

It may interest people to know that a study of early records indicate that a large number of pregnancies in the colonial US and even into the 19th century were “out of wedlock” and that people often got married after the pregnancy was confirmed. Hence, the “shotgun wedding” once dear old Dad found out about it.

But they did the right thing and the kids grew up just fine, with a mother and a father; what’s a couple of months when you’re an embryo?

I don’t think she should sue, but on the other hand, I think the school made itself ridiculous by consulting its handy 9-months-to-the-day calendar.

But according to some folks here, God hates all of those folks and they wont inherit his “kingdom”.

Goodness knows how great of a kingdom it could be where this type of thing gets a thumbs up.
