Family Forum / Parenting / Adoption / February 2008Dear Abby (or Dear Marley)
http://www.uexpress.com/dearabby/?uc_full_date=20080213 DEAR ABBY: I have something I would like to know just for the sake of curiosity. When my mother became pregnant with me, she was married -- but not to the man who impregnated her. Does this make me a bastard? I am not going to be devastated if the answer is yes -- I just want to know for the knowing. -- AM I OR AM I NOT, COSHOCTON, OHIO DEAR ARE YOU OR ARE YOU NOT: The answer to your question is no. Because you were born within the bonds of wedlock, you are as legitimate as the next person. P.S.: The term "bastard" went out of style at least two decades ago. A better term would be "love child." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

It's a stretch to say most get here through an act of 'love'. The operative work was 'hate'. None of the causes you listed could be consider an act of hate. The point I was making the product (the child) should be loved and cared for regardless. > "Kat" > | > | [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > The point I was making the product (the child) should be loved and cared for > regardless. I really don't see the connection. Even children of an act of 'hate' should be loved and cared for regardless. Kathy 1 |
