Quoting MrX67:

theres a saying about that in Turkish,''gördüğün inan,duyduğuna inanma''(believe what you saw and don't belive what you heard)

but if it was a turkish person who told her this is it maybe that way in some places?

i think just an information error karekin..



Hmmm ama...I would imagine, Mr. X67, in a culture where virginity and parentage are of paramount importance, it is a disgrace to have a child if you are not married...no?

well as i said to be a kid without a dad or to be a singel mum may be one of the hardest social stitation in Turkish people still,especially at the rural areas aenigma,may be thats a wrong choice for the mum,but who can blame an innocent baby or kid about the mistake or choice of parents??

i hope so, that would be very sad but on the topic maybe you can answere a question thats kindoff on that topic. If a woman there does have a child when she is not married (with her boyfriend or whatever) do the men take responsibility? Maybe even help out financially?

well,the mum has all rights to prove his all responsibilites on courts,Turkey is a democratical-law country Karekin,so everybody in safe with the rules..so all rights in safe with the civil law rules,but can't say same for the social rules with the effect of traditions sometime.

Socity and laws are different things. Society may think it is a shame having a child without marriage. But laws (which are same all around Turkey) protects the innocent baby's rights and treats him/her equal. Has identity (if proven medically) with father2s name and family name. If mum does not want to say who the father is, simply gives the baby her family name, takes the ID.

You can't just blame the mum MrX67! What about the absent dad eh? Doesn't he get any blame?

but MrX... you still are saying things like "you can't blame the child for a parents mistake"???? My question is.... why is it a mistake? If these people are in love and have spent time together and happen to get pregnant its a mistake??? It's looked down on??? So it's ok then women have to have abortions to save face, because I know that happens there. What a sad society having to always hide the reality that its not the early 20th century. Again I say... love and reproducing was around long before the concept of a "legal marriage".

I am afraid I have to disagree with you, for once Karekin!!! I think there is no excuse for "accidents" these days - its just selfishness and lack of responsibility that causes them (with only a very few exceptions).

Its one thing to be in love for a while and spend time together, but quite another to bring a human being into this world. It should be planned and both parents should think very hard about it. A baby not some kind of "seal" to a relationship, it's at lifetime commitment.

Just my opinion.....

well,i don't blame personal choises,but if it gives trouble for the kids then isn't not a mistake??and how come a kid can get enough love without dad or mum??
