We have folks that get "married in reverse, accidently, on purpose"... Have the child first to get the man to marry them... Sometimes it works for them, many times it doesn't... How do we promote a "Healthy Family Mentality" when deceptive practices were implemented to have a family in the first place?

Deception is not general society behavior that leads to good...

But folks do it...

Dr. Joyce Brothers just wrote an article in Parade Magazine about the virtues of having "shame"... That "shame" in and of itself is not neccessarily a bad thing when used appropriately--i.e. not used to denigrate another human being (usually a child) to be submissive to the another's will (usually a parent). Shame used appropriately can be teach children these lessons they need to know right from wrong--at least that is what she says...

And nowadays, what is good behavior? Doing what the authorities tell you? Or what a "Good Book" tells you or ELSE? How do I know what I have done is wrong?

In a completely secular society, devoid of religiousity, how come murder is wrong? How did these capital crime punishment laws develop?
