Today, my nine year old son went around telling everyone that me and my husband had a "foursome" last month. It turns out that some douchebag counselor at the camp he goes to thought it would be funny to tell him that a foursome was a divorce. All of his friend's parents think we're kinky freaks. FML

Tell your friends you went golfing. Foursome is a very common golfing term.

Thats just ****** up. People shouldn't tell little kids shit like that.

Kids will say anything to anyone. It's not a big deal.

Huh. I hope you did something about that, because that certainly is NOT something a counselor should be saying. I'd figure out who said it and demand they be fired, because they clearly aren't mature enough to deal with kids.

I would worry more about the fact that your kid seems only to have one friend...

I'd rather be a kinky freak having foursomes every weekend, than **** up a kids life with a divorce.

Parents more interested in kinky foursomes than parenting could **** a kid's life up too. Though I agree that people with children should try harder not to get a divorce.

they're not "ruining their life" by getting divorced! tons of my friends parents are. its normal although i would hate it to happen to me. still, i dont see why people think its screwing up childrens lives. they still HAVE their parents at least, they just arent together.

depending on the situation, it's actually better for a child's well-being for their parents to get divorced than stay together, i.e. if the parents have violent screaming fights every night. having 2 parents who get along is better than having divorced parents, but having divorced parents is better than having 2 parents who are constantly fighting.

Divorce doesn't screw kids' life. One in two married couples get a divorce sometime in their life. Yes marriage worked and there were never divorces when the dudes involved kind of died at age 40 (and/or giving birth). But now it's stupid to assume monogamy is "natural" (it's bad genetic mixing). Who cares what you do, you you sleep with and for what reasons. As long as everybody agrees with what they are involved in, then don't go and poke around other people's life. Like penn said : don't touch my dick unless i invite you to, and i promise not to touch yours.

Divorce isn't normal, or rather it shouldn't be seen as normal. One thing that ***** me off is marriage isn't taken seriously or respected as much as it used to - those vows are meant to be promises.

it's not seen as it used to be because before, it used to last maybe 10 years, before one of them died. Besides, the traditions is to have lovers outside marriage, since marriage was never EVER about love. it's family arrangements.

breaking up a family shouldn't be considered "normal" your taking a kids reality and shattering it. Ur grown and you'd hate it to happen, the kid's 9. think about it

maybe a foursome would have saved the marriage. spice things up a bit.

I agree with #16. Tell the kid "foursome" is a way of saying you played golf or bridge. Then tell him/her to say "divorce."

ooooo, haven't heard this one before.... /sarcasm

You have no idea if it is ruining their lives it has never happened to you. Don't go shouting your opinions about things you have been through.
