Problem
Address these questions and make a substantial post:
A. What do you think of Jessica E. Birch's statement that "Unlike food, time and energy are free. They are mine to give, and I have a debt that will always be owed"? Does everyone consider time and energy free, or is this in itself a privilege? If you are a single parent working multiple jobs in order to afford to live, would you still consider time and energy "free" or would they be valuable commodities?
B. Who do you define as your family? How does this relate to the types of families discussed in the beyondmarriage.org reading?
