Her child has food, clothing, shelter, and a first-rate Christian education. While the mother's job may not suit your morality, it is certainly less harmful to her child than having a criminal for a mother, or, for that matter, living in public housing and on welfare.

Scratch that. The kid was getting a first-rate Christian education. Now she's not.

Dang. I have to head to the doctor's office now. I can't wait to see what y'all say while I'm gone.

My morality? And what is that? A bad diet doesn't have to be immoral to be a bad diet. She has a bad job, a rotten job, one she doesn't need to have -- she's a pretty woman and unfraid of the public, she could be a receptionist, any number of things -- a real estate agent even.

To bring up another aspect ... Does being a stripper help her at all in finding a decent man to help her raise her child -- to marry? Doesn't the child deserve a father?

Years ago, I tried to enroll my daughter in an excellent local Christian high school. My son had attended several Christian schools over the years, so I knew they had their own standards and rules of admission. The high school required that both parents attend the Sunday services, and we could not do that since my husband's business kept him working offshore on most Sundays with nobody to cover for him. The school would not relent on this issue, and it never entered my mind to sue them or make a big deal of it, I figured that we simply didn't meet the requirements, and unless we wanted to give up our business, my husband wouldn't be able to attend church, end of story. So we passed, and found another private school. It was our choice that we didn't meet the criteria for the school, not the school's fault. No matter how petty I thought their rules were, they were entitled to enforce them.

Are those the only alternatives? Give me a break. How about just getting a regular job? Funny, but so many single moms seem to make a living (not necessarily a well paid living) without doing any of the above. Stripping is no way to make a living, if you want to be a decent person. Better to be struggling financially, but retain some dignity as a person and a parent. Why are so many people willing to accept a woman who is a stripper? This is degenerate behavior, and cannot be condoned.
