keeping the government out of it is another one most would agree upon,
This is the best idea.
These days in the USA, some stats say women initiate 70% of all divorces
So if you were going skydiving and they told you 3 of 4 parachutes were not going to open, how many would stop right there and forget the whole rhetoric about how great skydiving is?
If you get married at 20, have a couple of kids by 24, and then your wife decides she wants a divorce, you will be stuck with child support for the next 20 years, plus alimony. Plus you don’t get to see your own kids every day, but a judge whom you never met will decide how many times and when you will be able to see your kids.
Now you want to get married again and finally find the love of your life and she has two kids and after a few years you finally realize the story about the Prince finding the Princess and riding off into the sunset was just a story made up by some romantic that wanted to sell books.
Most of my friends have gotten married and had children by age 24. And most of those are already on their second marriage and come and complain to me about their lot in life. And the biggest struggle they have right now is Money.
Even the older ones I know who have been married some 50 years tell me it wasn’t easy and perhaps they should of waited till they were in their late 40s, or 50s.
The problem is this world doesn’t make it easy for two people in love to stay in love. And the marriage and divorce laws are out of wack.And the worse thing about it all is that life is short. 80 years if your lucky, and the last few will be in declining health. And at 80, sex will just be a bodily function like waking up and walking around. It won't be the hot, steamy romantic sex that you had when you first met your wife or husband, and both of you had hot 18 years old bodies.
Now it's 80-90 year old bodies. It's won't be an easy thing watching the person you love and shared your life with get old and sickly and there's nothing you can do about it but hold her hand. I know this because I see my parents frustration as they get old and more sickly than when they were younger. Both my father and mother are terrified of losing each other. They are hoping hard the paradise will come before either one of them dies.
The only reason I can see this is because I was lucky enough to inherit something that allowed me to not worry about taking care of myself and it allowed me time to study and meditate on life and what it offers. It seems like trying to enjoy the wonders of life and avoid as much Drama and people that cause Drama is the Key to a happy life.
Had I not inherit what I did, I would be doing the same thing my friends did and probably be divorce by now with kids.
Did you know most Gen Z are not getting married and don’t want children?
The scene of the world is changing.
