The best way to encourage abstinence


The best way to encourage abstinence is to have a day like mine. Even individuals with a basic education understand that sexual intercourse can lead to pregnancy and babies. According to statistics when practiced correctly every time male latex condoms are only effective ninety-eight percent of the time, the use of the pill will still  lead to pregnancy 0.3% of the time, pulling out is effective only ninety-six percent of the time, and a vaginal sponge or  spermicide works only eighty percent of the time; abstinence however has a zero percent chance of pregnancy. Regardless of the fact that I think God gave women sex and the multiple orgasm to make up for the fact he also made us have to menstruate and bear children. Abstinence is the only answer to the problem of children. Which really only takes away the sex part of Gods remunerations.

Which doesn't really bring me back to why my day was an advocate for abstinence but I don't really care, I'm jumping there anyway. Today was the day that good children decide to act like she devils. Two of the mildest mannered and well behaved girls I've ever watched took it upon themselves to be the greatest little terrors this world has ever seen. They started the day by refusing to wear the outfits their mother laid out for them. Once I finally got them dressed in satisfactory outfits that were made up of items they wanted to wear and met my approval on warmth and cleanliness, breakfast was next. They both have their own preferences as far as fruits and veggies go but that's only expected. Marzie can't stand mushrooms and peaches but loves peas with corn and grapes. Ange on the other hand will not touch anything with peas or grapes, but would eat a thousand peaches and mushrooms if you let her. Keeping their preferences in mind I made blueberry pancakes with butter and powder sugar for Ange and brown sugar for Marzie and neither one would eat them. Keep in mind they loved them just fine last Friday, when last I made blueberry pancakes. So instead I made omelets. When I asked Marzie wanted just a cheddar cheese omelet and Ange wanted a mushroom and mozzarella cheese one. So being the ever accommodating nanny and just wanting them to eat something besides fruity yogurt that has more sugar than it does fruit, I made them omelets.

Fresh and warm with a little ketchup on the side and they wouldn't eat them. Regardless of the fact they chose what kind of omelet they got. After about half an hour and more reasoning than any adult should ever be forced to do with any child under the age of eight I got them both to eat half their omelets all their fruit, their glasses of milk and vitamins. I was finally ready to throttle someone and it was only eight-thirty in the morning. The rest of the morning wasn't much different with a lot of "I don't want to" and "N-O". Both of which have token replies from me that probably annoy the girls just as much as their refusals annoy me. "Which story would you like to read?" "I don't want you to read." "Okay which game would you like to play?" "I don't want to play a game; I want to watch a show." "Want and wish all you'd like but we're playing a game or reading a story, so pick one." That's how the day went with me saying "Want and wish all you'd like but..."  and "Y-E-S" more often than any adult should have to. Lunch wasn't much different than breakfast with the girls only wanting to eat items we didn't actually have in the house. Nap-time was a total nightmare with them refusing to take a nap. How do you reason and rationalize with children? You just can't. Spending a day with ill mannered children, even if that isn’t their normal nature is the only way to make someone to steer as clear of sex as possible… or moving back home with your parents, that’ll squash pretty much any drive to the contrary.
