• You should have told her that she should not be judging and that he who is without sin let him cast the first stone and then se what she would have said. I hate it when people judge other people. Nobody is perfect and to each  his own. I am sure you are great parents and your kids are very loved. No piece of paper will change that.

• I'm sorry she's a wench. My grandmother said dh and I would never last 2 yrs married. Yup. Sure. 2 yrs married, 4 yrs together, 3 pregnancies, 1 baby, 1 baking, 4 deployments, countless TDYs and 1 PCS later: happily married and still madly in love.

• well i would not have let it bother me at all,  i believe in god and try to live a good life, i am the mother of 4 kids and i have never been married, i guess it just wasnt in the cards for me, it doesnt mean i dont love the kids dad anyless but i would never go and judge anyone else for the choice to not be married when they have a child, im thinkin it a choice they make and well if it works for them then thats all that matters

• I have read a lot of posts here that someones family or friend said something out of the way and offended or embarressed the poster but they never said a word, I must say, you all are way more tolerant then I would have EVER been.  I am very sarcastic and most definately would have said something that would have put them right back in their place, don't ever let someone disrespect you, we are ALL strong women, NEVER let someone control your feelings like that....I know you were hurt, I know you were upset but you gave her the power because she ruined the rest of your day....ppl like that you have to take with a grain of salt, noone but you can tell you how to live, whether you should marry, have more children, whatever......next time just look at her like the stupid person that she is.....don't let her piss you off again....stand up for yourself, I think you and your sil should have ganged up on her....ha ha ha ha ha ha......hope you are feeling better tho....hugs to you momma!!!!!!!

• my husband and I have been married for over 4 years but been together for over 6 years and we have three beautiful kids together. Well my husband's grandmother just told me yesterday that we better not have anymore kids because three kids are enough. I told her very politely that that was between me and my husband and God. She then told me that it was really between me and God and I told her last I checked my husband was there when all our babies were conceived. She then told me to lighten up because she was only joking and I told her it wasn't funny because everytime I do end up talking to her she always has to make some kind of remarks about how we have too many kids or how we have enough and we don't need anymore kids. She didn't say anything after that and quickly hung up a few minutes later.

  So I understand what you go through...except for the "having kids out of wedlock" part but I still hear it and I'm married and was married before we started having kids.

• I would have thrown it right back at her. I would have told her she can't go to church becuse obviously she's not really a christian, being all judgemental like that. 

  It's your life, and a piece of paper will not change your relationship or family in any way. if she brings it up again tell her to butt out and live her own life.  

   yeah. i'm that one.
