      People keep adding children to the records that are already there.
      WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP ADDING INFORMATION ON THIS RECORD, THAT IS ALREADY RECORDED ON THE RECORDS? THEY COULD SPEND THEIR TIME MORE PRODUCTIVE IN RESEARCHING AND FINDING INORMATION THAT IS NOT ON THE RECORDS AND IS PROPERLY DOCUMENTED! AND WHY DO THEY ADD CHILDREN THAT BELONG TO ANOTHER WIFE, IN ANOTHER WIFE'S RECORD? THEY NEED TO KEEP THEIR FACTS STRAIGHT, AND STUDY THE RECORDS THAT ARE ALREADY THERE.
