Burlar, I would have given her the $1500 and rolled away. Perhaps it would mean I was taken advantage of, but I'd still have a little pride. This reminds me of a recent night when I left work and passed a homeless strung out teen in front of a fast food restaurant with a stroller. I just handed her $20 and walked away. Thats alot of money for a handout. But it wasn't for her, it was't really for the kid, it was for me. If you couldn't draw the line at infant...

Nah, not even close to pinging my conscience, sorry dude. I know where my heart is, and what constitutes acceptable and unacceptable actions given the circumstances involved and the motives of others.

The baby, even if it was wide awake and right next to us, would have not known what the hell was going on...how many young parents in this country, or the world, have to tip toe with their love lives when they have young children in their houses? What do you think single young mothers working legitimate jobs do sometimes when they cant find a sitter yet have recently started dating a man they really like? They will wait for the young one to go to sleep and then do whatever with their date in the next room...

I have a number of anecdotes that fall into this category and theme, which based on the opening post involves just what activities and behavior young women with children will allow themselves to do given the right circumstances and motivation. I NEVER forced or manipulated this chick into anything, least of all her winding up in my suite after being kicked out of the restaurant...

BUT....I am jaded enough and jussssst corrupt enough to imagine this scenario played out with a kid (or KIDS) who are slightly OLDER, where the mom sits them down in front of the TV and then retires with me to the bedroom to do "whatever.." .... could I do that? At this point in my life, absolutely NOT, but back then, in my PRIME at age 28, anything is possible
