is getting married at an early age a good or a bad thing?

Answer 1

Usually it's not a good idea because the divorce rate for young marrieds is so high, but the most important thing (more important than when you marry) is having kids too soon. Once you have a child with someone you are legally tangled to them forever. If you divorce, it could be years in court and thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars fighting for custody. My husband married a psycho the first time around, had a daughter with her, and now the psycho ex has been the hardest thing of our marriage, has turned his daughter against him, and has cost him $300,000 in legal fees. Basically having a kid with her has destroyed a lot of his life. People tend to forget what will happen if they divorce as far as having a kid, but lawyers cost around $300/hour, and it's really sad it all of your money you've spent your life earning has to go to lawyers and court fights. Whereas if you don't have a child with someone and you get a divorce, you can just walk away and get on with your life.

Answer 2

Getting married at an early age is a bad idea especially if your current residence is your parent's house. A person needs that in between time for themselves. No kids, no wife, no husband. Just worry about yourself. Work, experience, see things, play, and do things with your friends before committing to a life long marriage.

Answer 3

For me it is a good thing my husband and I have been together since I was 16 and he was 19, We got married when I was 19 and we have now been married for 8 years but have been together for 11 years and we have two beautiful children an 8 year old girl and a boy that will turn 4 on Monday we own our own house we have 3 cars we have or boxers that we show and breed and we have alot of love for each other so for me it has been a GOOD thing

Answer 4

Getting married young can be a mixture of good and bad. I got married at 19. My husband and I had no money but we had love. As the years went on we had a good marriage but life has it's ways of seperating us. I didn't have much of a chance to experience life before I got married. So getting married young just depends on the experiences that we have to endure. For me, I got married young. I wouldn't have had it any other way. We're seperated now because I had issues with what i thought I missed out on but really....I didn't miss anything. Now, I miss him.

Answer 5

Personally I think it's a bad thing but everyone has to make decisions that are best for themselves. Every person goes through different stages in her life and with each stage, she learns more about herself and more about life in general. People change so much from these life experiences and who you are at 17 isn't who you are at 25. People need to give themselves time to grow, learn and change so that when they get married, the truly know more about life and who they are and what they want.

Answer 6

I think you are wiser to wait. As you mature, you change and sometimes it is big changes. What you want when you are younger may not be what you will want when you are a little older. Marriage is a lot of hard work so you really want to be married to someone that appreciates you for just who you are. If you've both changed, that may be a very hard thing to do.

Answer 7

Depends on how young you and your spouse are.

How mature you are emotionally.

How you physically handle stress , money , job's , friends , female friends of his and male friends of your's, your relative's support system.

Marriage is a big step , its not a fairytale , it's not all romance , flower's , candle lit dinner's , trip's to Paris and Rome .There is a lot of responsibility that come's with it.

And how silly you are in having kids to early in the relationship before you mature together and know each other.

Also depends on how your own parents marriage is.

Answer 8

Personally I think its best if you can stay till at least 28 to get married but if you feel you are ready for it, it shouldn't matter.

Answer 9

Usually a bad thing, you don't have enough money or your own place to live.

Answer 10

跟年龄没有直接关系，只是年轻时自控能力差，婚姻是需要宽容的
