why do you think a lot of teenage marriage fails???

Answer 1

Becasue of lack of immaturity. Their minds are yet to ripe to carry a bid family responsiblities and obligations. Having a family is not a joke but commitments to handle the responsiblities. Therefore, for teenage people, they need to forget making serious decision to get marry unless they are ready to face that responsibility. There must be prerequisites to teenagers who handle responsibilities easily, such as they must completed their college degrees before getting marry so these person can find job easily with good salary which neccessary to finance basic family needs to be successful on their married lifes.

If teenagers getting married with not able to completed their studies or degrees then the chance to fail the married vows is great. If you think there is one successful for teener, maybe once in a million married couples.

Answer 2

Because in general, teenagers in the society of today are immature and not taught to make well thought-out decisions. They are not familiar with how life works and have not held jobs, they don't know what to look for in a partner. Some teen marriages don't fail--some teens today have more experience than most 20- and 30-year-olds. It's a cultural thing, nothing more, and should not be used as a blanket excuse to condemn all young marriages.

Answer 3

I got married 3 years ago when I was 18 and I pretty much have been having a "happy" marriage. So I'm glad that you said a lot. But,for the most part I'll have to agree, some people just aren't ready to make that kind of commitment. Then again though, in some cases it all just depends on the couple themselves.

Answer 4

Teenagers don't have a lot of insight, nor are they very good at peering into the future based upon the character traits of themselves and their spouses. They also don't know much about medical conditions that can have a big influence on behavior, such as hyperthryroidism. My first wife was a mess - she was narcissistic, entitled, dominant, cheap, and had a hyperthyroid condition that made her restless yet lazy, bitchy and paranoid. I never would have agreed to marry her if I'd known all that stuff first.

Answer 5

It's a matter of immaturity. I was married the first time within a year of graduating high school, it didn't last a total of a year. But, in hind sight, I see that I was basically just playing house, on a larger scale. These kinds of experiences are very necessary in the growing and maturing arena. It is unfortunate that, as young people, we tend to hurt those we think we love, or do we??

Answer 6

Me and my ex are not that young and when we split my ex mother in law had a talk with us and she basically said that she was really disappointed in that fact that we couldnt stick it out thru thick and thin, how we committed to when we decided to start our family, she said that this younger generation is so quick to just give up and throw in the towel when before once you were married you stayed that way thru it all, just like your vows said "thru sickness in health, til death do us part", that's why both of our parents have been married 26 years. She said now adays we just say ah forget it and move on to the next person. You know and she had a point. I do see it even with my friends and their relationships. Before the value of marriage and commitment and having kids was much higher and not so easy to just give up on. And then with teen pregnancy being so high and all these girls wanting babies just because they're friends have them and thinking they want that married family life because they think it's cute has alot to do with it, then once they get there and realize it isn't what it's cracked up to be then the problems start. Marriage is HARD no matter who you are, look at the celebrities, you think they have it much easier since the obviously can't fight about money which is one of the leading causes of divorce and yet look, they all divorce to just as much as they change their underwear and that's because no matter who you are, how old you are, what color, what gender, religion...whatever...it all goes back to marriage being hard for everyone, you just have to stop and ask yourself how committed you are to succeed at it. GOOD LUCK!

Answer 7

Because teenager (I am still one of them) really don't know what they want yet... I know that I'll see something on television and say "Oh, I want that!" but then in a few weeks I'll forget all about it. It can happen the same way... Teenagers will make rushed decisions, and then, feeling trapped, want to get out of it... Adults, as grim as it is, know that their days of "clubbing" and getting with the opposite sex is over, so they're more inclined to stay with one person.

Answer 8

same reason every other marriage fails - people get into them for the wrong reasons like loneliness, looks, sex, money, etc. without really knowing or thinking about the future realistically.
