Another week

Hey sports fans.  I thought this was a cool week.  I really liked some of the activities we did in class, like the one where people gathered in a circle and Bro. Williams put pressure on people.  It really helped me see the impact that one person's decisions can have on a family.  I have a pretty large family with siblings that are active and less-active, and it is very true.  I have had to make some adjustments in my own life because of some of the decisions that my siblings, and even my parents have made, because of divorce.  I really enjoy the things that we learn in this class.  And that's all for today, fools.

This week in class we talked a lot about the trends in society in regards to the family.  We had a class activity where we looked at several trends and labeled them as being very important, kind of, and no big deal.  We found that all of the trends, whether it was living alone and rising age in marriage, were related in some way to each other, and none of them were no big deal.  It has been really fascinating to learn about what the public opinion of the family is because most of the people I associate with are members of the church.  It is interesting to note that the age of people getting married, even in the church, has increased.  I'm pretty sure that my mom was married and had three children by the time she was my age, and I'm not even close to being married... shows that times are-a-changin. : )

Well, that's it for this week.  Tootaloo.
