How do you feel about a woman dropping out of high school to marry if she has found "Mr. Right"?

Question

Good idea or bad idea? Let's say Mr. Right has a good job and good morals.

Answer 1

Its a stupid idea. What if he turns out to be the wrong guy for her or dies leaving her with bills, children, and no education? She's screwed then. Besides, getting married while being in high school or even right after is too young. If he really is Mr. Right, he can wait

Answer 2

Bad idea. It's foolish because it's one thing not to have a college degree, it's another not to have a high school one. And marriage is tough, so chances are if they're that young they're going to need two incomes. Even if the male does have a good job. I mean, a high school boy usually doesn't have a good job, or good morals. But I do think a female that is responsible wouldn't wast her time with a boy like that. Nor do I think she'd br stupid enough to drop out of school. I think she would look for older males, but that's not all ways a good thing. And at that young an age she will have so much to look forward to, why rush into marriage? I mean, this is the twenty-first century, females have options now. They should take them! There are a lot of reasons why she shouldn't do it

Answer 3

At the very least, all people should complete high school so they have a basic education. That should never be sacrificed!

As for marrying "Mr. Right" when a teenager. I'm sorry, as a teenager, you're still more of a child than an adult and most teenagers, boys and girls, have a childish view of love. I've known very few to understand what love really is. And at that age, more girls are looking for the "cute boy". They don't know what qualities make a man. I'm in my 30s and still learning what qualities make a man.

No, it is a mistake to drop out of high school to get married.

Answer 4

Well, it's probably best to finish high school before she gets married. What if something happens to Mr. Right and she has to support herself and all of those kids she's probably going to have?

A woman's place is in the home with her family, but sometimes things happen and a woman needs a Plan B. At least she could get a job if she finished high school.

Answer 5

Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong. She is too young to know Right from Wrong.

The real Mr. Right would wait and make her complete her education first. If not, he is surely Mr. Selfish Wrong.

Good job is great. Good morals? Not if he is eying a child still in school.

Answer 6

Guys have an evolutionary history of being attracted to multiple female partners simultaneously, though luckily in today's society they can usually keep their instincts under control. You're probably attracted to the girls you went to high school with because they were there when you first started feeling sexual desires. The exact same thing happened to my cousin. He said that when you're a teenager, sex is something new and demanding, and a very important part of your identity. But once you're older, you have more of a sense of context, and while sex is still something that comes up often it isn't a dominant part of your life. Not to mention that in high school, chances are that you and most of the girls were single, while later in life both you and other women are likely already in relationships.

Answer 7

If he's "Mr. Right," then he can wait for her to finish school. Without school, you can't really find a good career.

Unless of course she plans on having Mr. Right be a sugar daddy the whole time they're together. Then I suppose it doesn't matter. Then again, I wouldn't recommend that ridiculous idea to anyone.

Answer 8

Not a good idea. Education is important for everyone. Even given that Mr. Right has everything going for him. Everyone has to have something going for themselves. Always.

Answer 9

I did.I finished the 10th and quit.I was 7 months pregnant,got married and never went back.

18 yrs later.......we have 4 kids...18.9.6.and 4.....


We've turned out ok ;)

Edited to add: My husband has a good job,Im a SAHM,we own everything outright (3 vehicles...1999,1999,2005) and only debt we have is our mortage ($1300+) and utilities.

People down young couples for getting married so young.Granted most probably dont last but SOME do.And they're always overlooked.marriage is work,at any age.And whats sad is when you hear of people married 35+ yrs and divorce because they stayed together 'for the kids'.

And yes I knew how to read a recipe book when I got married at 16...only thing is I didnt need one to know how to cook :P

Answer 10

Bad Idea - if Mr. Right has good morals he would insist on his bride to be to finish her education. He is definately not Mr. Right, but Mr. Wrong.

Good Luck!!!
