Explanation:
As it is known, there are many types of marriages. Now, I'm going to talk about advantages and disadvantages, causes, some of my opinions etc.
1. EARLY MARRIAGE:
A marriage before the age of 15 is considered a very early marriage.
After that, still illegal, children at age of 16 and 17 will have to ask for permission from their parents.
There are some countries where marriage at that age is legal.
There are many causes, advantages and disadvantages and I'm going to write about it in the next lines.
2. ADVANTAGE:
The main advantage of two people deciding to get married young is probably that their new marriage comes with absolutely '' no baggage ''. It means, no previous wives/husbands and no children.
What is also really good when young people decide to marry is that they have years ahead to learn together, develop together, get to know each other and about one another's needs and habits.
They also have no big expectations, of course, there are exceptions.
They are young, they want to have fun and they don't have their ups and downs yet, or any vision of what will marriage might look like. They are building their new family brick by brick, and are not afraid of what future brings. They usually don't dream about big weddings as they don't have a built career of a full bank accounts yet. They are much more simple than the adults, and they can find a simple takeaway restaurant as romantic as a glorious wedding venue.
3. DISADVANTAGE:
The first and main disadvantage in marriage that's been formed in an early age is probably financial support. Not many young people are financially stable and not many of them have rich parents or cousins who will help in that kind of support.
Marriage is a big change itself, and sometimes it's followed by children.
Raising a family at young age can be stressful, as a person has to have a stable job. That's not always the case, as a young person can be limited due to insufficient education, so their job opportunities can be limited or underpaid. A child requires many things that involve finances, but attention and time are the most important.
There is also a chance that young people can get bored easily, or feel like their freedom is limited due to many compromises that need to be made. It can lead to an expensive divorce and family wrecking.
4. CAUSES OF EARLY MARRIAGE:
One of the causes is probably that people want to feel free, far away from their parents and the rules they need to follow.
They have a feeling that once they're married, that's it.
They won't have to compromise anymore, they don't have to be limited, They don't have to ask for permission from them anymore.
They have a feeling that once they're married, they are as free as birds.
Which is usually wrong, because marriage brings even more compromises, fights, problems, financial difficulties than any other relationship we have in our lives.
5. MY OPINION:
My opinion is split 50-50.
I think that if young people are in love, they should follow their hearts. They are young, after all, and there will be plenty of time for them if they change their opinions in time and decide to get a divorce, as it won't be the end of the world. They should enjoy, learn about each other, get to know each other's needs and wants, habits and character. They should build together and look at it as their first big step into the adulthood.
On the other hand, if they are sure about their love and how they feel about each other, what is the rush? They should focus on their education, stability, financial status etc. So when the time comes, they will be more than ready to accept the obligations that marriage and children bring.
