Anyone with any doubts...

even in the slightest about having a child with someone or getting married should seriously spend a few hours down at the local court house. Honestly, the service that I've had from my local court is fantastic but the harsh reality of everyone's situations that are there is really shocking. The family court section has a very good lesson to offer to people in the reality of the consequence of it all when it doesn't go right. Not that you can live your whole life in fear of 'what if this all goes wrong' but It's a good reality check as to if you're not certain about it then to really seriously think it through as when it all goes wrong, it's a long an complicated process both administratively, financially and emotionally. It's been difficult for me but I can't imagine how much worse it is for a lot of the people whom I saw dealing with much more complicated situations ...
