An early marriage is a violation of human rights that compromising the development
of girls and often resulting in early pregnancy and social isolation, with little education
and poor vocational training reinforcing the gendered nature of poverty. Nowadays, the
youngsters think that an early marriage is simple because they're thinking that after they
getting married, they will not facing any problems within the society. As for me, I mostly
agree that the early marriages are more likely to end in divorce. This is because marriage is
a serious matter that required us to think twice, so as the youngster, it is too
early for them to bear all the responsibilities.
The main factor that makes me agree with the statement given is the percentage of
divorce is getting higher due to this problem. One of the researchers estimates that 40
percent to 50 percent of all first marriages will end in divorce or permanent separation.
This research had made me more agree with the statement.
One of the factors that are associated with a higher risk for divorce is because of young
age. Marriage at a very young age increases the likelihood of divorce. Those who marry in
their teens have much higher divorce rates. Then, for those who delay marriage until their
20s are probably more mature and able to make better marriage decisions and handle the
challenges of married life better than those who marry in their teens.
Another reason is due to lacking of less education. The researchers have estimated that
individuals who have some college education have a lower chance of divorce. Apparently,
investing in
education is a good way to build a foundation for a better marriage. Moreover, the
problem of having less income lower socio economic status that closely related to education, which is also
very important. Financial can be stressful for the married couples. Apparently
having at least a modest income can help couples avoid stresses that can lead
to divorce.
Based on what I’ve stated above, I would
like give a suggestion where we shouldn’t take this marriage problem as a simple
matter, especially for those who still do not really sure about their next
stage of life after getting married. Before we make any decision, we have to
list down all the consequences so that we will not face many problems at the
end. Furthermore, we should think wisely in planning for our future and do not
simply assume that everything will be fine which means life is not all that rosy because without a proper plan, we cannot
make a right decision and any preparations for rainy days. Final yet sure, I stick with my stand that the early
marriages are more likely to end in divorce.
