Drinking


            
             It might seem like someone's dream to have numerous wives or husbands to care for you and to fulfill all of your physical needs, but is that really the best way to go? I don't think so, monogamy is. Marriage is an intensely special bond that should be shared between only two people.
             Jealousy is primary problem in polygamous relationships. "I have been a little jealous. My husband and I are looking for a second wife. I sometimes feel like I"m being put on the back burner. Jealousy is the monster that sometimes rears its ugly head." (3coins.com) The husband might give more attention to one of his wives thus making the others jealous. The wives time with their husband is shared with however many other wives he may have. She may only have them for one night a week. Also, the husband probably isn't going to be equally committed to all of his wives even though he might say he will. There is no way that he could love all of his wives just the same.
             For the sake of the children, having just one mom and one dad would be the best for them. Granted, if they were born into a polygamous family they would have more adult figures to take care of them, but that is just not normal. When the children go to school, the other students won't understand how their family works and will probably make fun of them. Just like if a child had gay parents. Children don't understand these lifestyles and don't perceive that it would hurt their feelings, children in polygamous families, if they tease them. This kind of situation could really make a child's life hell; children can be cruel to other children.
             Another issue in polygamous relationships is disease. By having sex with more partners there is a greater chance of contracting and spreading sexually transmitted diseases. One woman could have an STD, and then sleep with the husband who sleeps with all the other wives, thus spreading the disease to them.
