Children were asked questions about marriage....
Interviewer: How do you decide to get married?
Alan, age 10: You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.
Interviewer: What is the right age to get married?
Camille, age 10: Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then.
Freddie, age 6: No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married.
Interviewer: How can a stranger tell if two people are married?
Derrick, age 8: You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids.
Interviewer: What do people do on a date?
Lynnette, age 8: Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough.
Martin, age 10: On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date.
Interviewer: When is it okay to kiss someone?
Pam, age 7: When they’re rich.
Howard, age 8: The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry them and have kids with them. It’s the right thing to do.
Interviewer: Is it better to be single or married?
Theodore, age 8: I don’t know which is better, but I’ll tell you one thing. I’m never going to have sex with my wife. I don’t want to be all grossed out.
Anita, age 9: It’s better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them.
Interviewer: How would you make a marriage work?
Ricky, age 10: Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a truck.
