Hypothetical Question

So, would it be bad if, oh, let's say, two girlfriends decide to sign their combined five children up for a Vacation Bible School that will feed and entertain them between 6-8:30 PM for the next several days ? Did I mention that one mother is a lapsed Methodist and the other is agnostic, bordering on athiest? It should also be noted that the children are all asking questions of late about God and Jesus and the mothers are ill-prepared to answer the questions. Would it be bad if said girlfriends went to a Mexican restaurant for margaritas or got pedicures while the kids were at VBS?

Discuss.

No, not at all. :) When mommy is happy, everyone is happy!

Too bad said mother doesn't live closer to this mother and it could be 7 children at VBS and three mommies drinking margs!

I think you're obligated now to sign them up for camps in all other theologies, to give them a rounded experience.

I think you're being generous and letting your kids learn about what is out there. They will be able to make well-informed decisions for themselves.

As for as those questions: Don't they have children's books for that?

As for those margaritas and pedicures: As PittGirl would say: That's church.

ciao, baby,

Bad Thing? That sounds like a plan to me!
