I was speaking to a young non-member YM last night.

All his older brothers have kids, and none of them are married.

He said his 2nd oldest brother is trying to decide whether to get married or not.

I mentioned, it's usually better to be married before you have children.

He says, "You're supposed to be married before you have children? Why?"

"Because it's hard for the children when they don't have a father."

He said "Oh."

This boy has not had a father since the age of 5.

I wonder if this one is going to bite me in the butt.

Show up on Sunday with charts and graphs. Either that, or you could say if his brother got a gay lover, then even if they didn't get married the child would be assured of having a father in their life.
