Sexy, sleek, provocative, fashionable. What matters, over time, is who raises children, and how they raise them.

But here in America, we don’t tell our children that their faith, their family, their community, state, and nation expect and require them to make a family, to have children, and to raise them to be the next generation of our family, our community, our state.

We don’t tell our children that they don’t want a date, someone to sleep with and have sex with — they need to focus, from the time they are interested in intimate companions, on whether that companion is going to be a respectful, well adjusted, honorable and responsible mate and co-parent.
