Short courtships equal long marriages

[jmowreader]

I think we all know some people who met in grade school, dated all through high school, kept up their romance in college, were madly in love through graduate school, courted for several years after school, got married, and three years later were standing in divorce court arguing over who gets the kids.

I met my wife on February 20, 1993, proposed on February 22, 1993, got married on April 17, 1993, and we are celebrating our 12th anniversary today.

(And no, I really DON'T hope a kid dies and I work very hard to maintain a safe department and ensure one doesn't even get a scratch...but unfortunately that's what it's gonna take to get these idiot parents to wake up.)
