  2. Meana, Are you sure that your ancestors had not already had temple ordinances done when you entered them on your family tree in FamilySearch/FamilyTree? While my side of the family is done WAY back, we have been or king on my wife's, seems most of her families work has been done as well, with NO LDS members in her family, including her, that we know of. You have to be quick to reserve family names though if have they are older than 110 years. Keep up with your Family History research!
  3. I think I'm more offended by the use of JC or GD than most other swear words. I went from a military contracting job to working in a predominantly Mormon ran department at Micron years ago, swearing was something that would get you sent on your way(other reasons would be found). I ended up going to work with another military contractor after years there. I missed being in the environment where every fifth word was not offensive.
  4. Just seems as though one would be basically complaint about a consistently lazy spouse, like Backroads mentioned. Either the spouse would readily admit it, or their is some other symptom, depression would be one that could match up nicely.I find a lot of What if threads are trollish....
  5. In both of your threads, you forgot about us SAHD(stay at home Dad's).....:) It really does not matter which parent stays at home. I think it makes a difference when one parent is able to though, but financial situations may ny allow that. Regardless, marriage is a partnership, it is not always equal, and life is not fair. If two people have dedicated their life to each other, and made the commitment to have children(which means You shoe them, house them, cloth them, pay for college and a mission if one goes...I do not mean to offend, BUT IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD THEM, DON'T HAVE THEM) then you work as a team, united in your goals, always staying focused on what needs to be done. Contention in the home is unacceptable, especially over petty things. In the grand scheme of things, dishes that remain overnight in the sink, or vacuuming the house once a week rather than every day does not really matter.

    Grease

    Two uses of the "f" word, and one use of "J". Took my 12 yr. old for her b-day!

    I'm taking it that no one here watches the Walking Dead, eh?....... "Warm Bodies" anyone? Really, how many times can you watch Suits on the loose? Your kids are seeing worse than "Grease" watching the Disney Channel these days. I thought a few of you were "Twilight" fans......................
  8. Women should not stay in abusive relationships. Throwing canned goods at you, and making contact is abuse, actually I'd call it assault. Do not allow your children to grow up and witness this type of behavior. My father told my wife when we married that if I were to ever lay a hand on her in an aggressive manner he would personally shoot me. I'll tell my son the same thing. Women are to be cherished. Sorry for saying this , but why would you go back to him, and have more kids even? I wish you the best.
  9. ....ask the Missionaries. Feed them, invite them into your home. Go on Splits with them. Attend your meetings. Read the Scriptures.
  10. Sounds like you have a keeper!
  11. I'm sorry that I don't know the OP personally, I was just reading what she wrote, and she did not write that her husband cleans the house quite a bit did she? Seems as though I have offended you? I never said that here husband was NOT a nice guy, NOR did I say that he does not care for his family. However, I did say, and will stand by that statement, and it is not meant to be offensive in any way, that the Church resources should NOT be used just so that you can stay home with your kids. The Lord expects us to be self reliant if we have the means. Jennarator, I hope that you work out the best arrangement for YOU and YOUR family.
  12. If your husband wants a cleaner home then he should pitch in more to help clean. If your income is substantially more than the Husbands, have you two considered HIM being the stay at home parent? I'm a stay at home Dad. My salary was almost triple my brides when we married. She truly wanted to stay in her career(Air Force Officer), and have kids. After our second child was born it was clear that I had the knack and the patience to raise the kids, she did not. I believe the Church resources and Government resources should be used as last resorts. Wanting to stay home with your children is natural, but only feasible is you can afford it, WITHOUT needing others to subsidize your wants.
  13. I will abstain from any further comments on this thread. I was reprimanded for making "derogatory" comments about the church I love and have been a member of my whole life. There is a difference between statements and revelation, and well, apparently some people's definition of "derogatory"..................
  14. Just wait until the bulk of the AHCA (Obamacare) taxes/ increases come into play next year. A great friend lost his job Dec. 20th, "Merry Christmas". Total shock to the eight that were let go. The owner scaled back to below 50 employees, and also reduced the medical benefits package for employees, and dropped the group life/disability coverages altogether. We took a $180 hit for the first 2 week period of this year.
  15. The word of wisdom is the biggest hypocritical doctrine of the church, and one in which MANY church members judge others. Sad that so many will disfellowship those that drink coffee, smoke or drink and yet not all the 2xxl and 3xl and 4 XL size people that don't follow the commandment. Where is it "interpreted" that one is acceptable and one is not? While I may live the word of wisdom, I don't have a testimony of it. What is it about coffee that is bad? Can I drink it iced? Chocolate covered beans? Please don't say caffeine, since I can drink diet Pepsi and hold a temple recommend.
