| Marriage.. To Love too Young.

I guess I see it more and more now. My very mexican upbringings have shown me that responsibilty for your actions is very important specially in the realm of pregnancy. We all deal with the fact that we have young mother more and more now because of all the known reasons. Too young? Yes of course, but the duty of a mexican boy is to marry the girl regardless of why. I knowit might be a common ground on many cultures for boys to step up and be fathers to their kids. While being a kid themselves. Im not getting any closer to my point.
The thing with this is that many married teens have divorces young like in less than a year or so. They are treating the marriage as a relationship something to be disposed up when not wanted. Not everyone of course but its happening more and more. Young couples cannot take it the ptressure to work come home deal with a baby and a wife, while living under a parents roof. I mean I know it must be quite hard to manage a life that you feel you left incomplete. Here you are with a baby not chance of having those one-night stands again because you cant eve leave the house unless its for diapers and work. On top pf everything School. Trying to get done with college or high school. Married couples in high school.
Im really not having much of an opinion on this, just a quick observation that I keep encountering as I go along. The next step is that we will have young moms saying they been divorced by the time they are 20 and getting married again at 25. By the time they are fourty its quite possible that you might have gone through 5 husbands. I mean if things dont work out as you plan. The world is completely changing.
My mom thought me that sometimes you have to look the other way when husbands cheat and do things they arent supposed to. Not because you want to but because you dont have an option. I dont agree too much with many mexican morals and things you are taught as a child. How we are supposed to serve a man his dinner and he should be able to make good money to make you stay home. Imagine a 18 year old making a decent living to have provide for his kid and wife.
Like I said just random thought. I know things just get worse year by year. But its always good to look back and let yourself know things are changing quickly |

Hi sarah. I see you left a comments on my blog lately. I haven't really been on thoughts for a few months but I came back today to read what you posted and decided to post a story I wrote recently. As for what you have written about marriage I think that the days of marrying for life are probably over... at least for most people... and maybe that's OK. I especially think it's probably not a good idea not to get married when you are young because you are still figuring out who you are, figuring out your personality and what you want out of life, and so you are bound to change and what if you change into someone who is no longer compatible with your husband/wife? It is better to wait and see who you turn into and then decide who you are compatible with. But that's just my opinion. :)
