Marrying Young

Two decades ago young people usually used to get married while still in college. Today, we see more and more often that this trend has declined. In my opinion it is quite explicable fact and it doesn't seem to surprise anyone nowadays.

I think that this is primarily due to the fact that our world is developing faster and faster and every day gives young people more and more opportunities to realize themselves. That's why young people try to devote time to their own career first. They understand that it is very essential to find a place in life, earn enough money to support the family, take their respectable place in society. I think it is right because it is unreasonable to raise a family, if you cannot give it a decent life. It was my view on this question from the material point of view.

Also the important role in this regard plays the fact that many young people especially young men are not prepared to take responsibility for the family unlike our grandparents and parents who were not afraid to get married at a young age and to keep the household together and raise children.

If we consider this question from a spiritual point of view here young people should be ready to spend the majority of time with the newly-made family and not drinking and hanging out with the friends.

But the most important thing in making decision to get married is the love of course. I believe that if two people really love each other they will be able to pass through all these trials and to build a strong family where the harmony and mutual understanding will reign. Everyone realizes sooner or later that he is ready to have a family and this is the moment when it becomes absolutely not important how old this person is and it is far more important what he considers this question deliberately.

That's why I believe that the young marriage are good only when young people realize the whole importance of this life changing decision and they are willing to take responsibility not only for themselves but for their family too.
