MY THOUGHTS ON EARLY MARRIAGE

Early marriage. It is already a trending  to people nowadays.  A lot of Malaysians nowadays get married at a very young age and today I’m here to express my thoughts on early marriage.  It is the belief of those narrow-minded people to marry at the young age just because they are glimpsing the aged time in the future that no one will take care.

For me, getting married at a very young age is  not a good idea for a youngsters these days. It is because early marriage can be threaten their future prospects. In my opinion, married life isn’t easy even in the first stage. They have to facing difficulties with their partner together to built a happy family. Each person should think first before entering this arduous decision. To enter a married life, we should be certain to provide a brighter future to the upcoming children or even has the numerous knowledge. To enter a married life, one should be cognizant of more things in life to make the children be self-sufficient that we are the parents. For those who still study, they have to think about their marriage and their studies at the same time. They have to take a risk which is they need to carry out the big responsibility. Getting married early also means that your love for each other will be stronger and more passionate. But there are also some downsides to getting married early and I feel that these downsides out weight the upsides. First, getting married early means that you will have more things to worry about and it could make oneself very stressed out. For example, you could be studying and have mountains of assignments to finish but you have a wife to take care and maybe a child to nurture. For those who can’t carry out this big responsibility, they might think the best solution is to neglect their study to survive their marriage life so they can assume the household responsibility. 

Getting married will never be easy. One should be mature enough before entering the marriage life.  It may causes divorces if the marriage couple can’t carry out this big responsibility. Getting married early could lead to divorces due to various stress from studies or work, you could find yourself losing control and lashing it out on your family at home. Getting married early also causes financial problems due to the fact that you need to feed your wife and children. That one guy should have stable source of income to support the family. In conclusion, marriage should be properly planned if one wants to get married at an early age but personally I suggest that you should lay off on getting married until you find a sustainable job and can think for your own.

So, for those youngsters outside there who wants to getting married at the early age, you guys should know how to take care and survive with your own legs. Without any help or sympathize from your parents or guardian. Do you think you will manage it ?
