If your impulse is to be disgusted by this and predict the demise of these marriages you just reveal yourself to be a terminally miserable person. Every parent wishes their child finds love at this age. Buy a house. Have kids. Make a life together.

The “Sex and the City” whoring around until your 30s, blowing money renting apartments and dining out, and binge drinking your prime away was always a scam. Good to see young people wising up.

At 20/22? Um, no. Not every parent.

I went to Duke and a lot of people I know married their college or grad school sweetheart. These were mostly very well to do UMC kids from stable backgrounds and I don’t know how “happy” they are but they have stayed together. I wouldn’t mind that for my kids, honestly.

MBB probably does not fit that paradigm but I wish her well.

I went to a very similar school and this was the case for a lot of my classmates. They are still married with children. I don't have any reason to believe they are not as happy as people settling in their mid 30s.

We all know couples like this. They are happier. They married their true love, grew together through their 20s. You can't get that time back. While people who wait until their 30s have to settle and have tons of dating trauma baggage. It's just not the same.

I mean, as long as we’re talking anecdotes here, each of my three close friends from college married their college boyfriends in their early 20s and every single one of them is divorced as of mid-40s. Lots of kids among them. Some really bitter, acrimonious split ups.

Yes, some of these marriages are solid and last forever. And some people suddenly realize that what they wanted when they were 18-22 isn’t what they want when they’re 40+, particularly if their own kids are grown and flown by then. There are simply no guarantees. Life takes unexpected turns.

are you genx or boomer age? there is a shift in commitments to being together with the younger folks these days

Bad idea to use Hollywood and celebrity to prove your point. They will let you down.
I wish MBB the best, like her as an actress, but hope this rush to marriage was not caused by some trauma in her short life due to her being involved in acting and Hollywood from a very young age.

Marrying at a young adult age humans have done for thousands of years…teases out issues and trauma. 90s and 00s era delay marriage until your 30s, settling with a schmuck because the dating pool is empty, needing IVF to get pregnant, being a tired feeling and old looking mom at your kid’s school, and likely dying before you see your kids marry let alone have grandkids are…sharp life choices. Sure, sure.

No - this is all wrong. Science has shown the human brain does not mature until after age 26.

At a minimum, people should not be allowed to marry before age 26 because they are too immature for it and to raise kids.

"Brain Matures at 25" largely found to be a myth; executive functioning effectively mature on average before 18

I don't know why people are so adamant about how great it is to be in your 40s with young kids. It's not! I'm speaking from experience! I applaud young women and men for not following this path.

+1. It's a cope. Nobody believes these people. Looking like a grandma with your young kids is sad, if we're being honest.

There’s a whole decade between your 20s and your 40s to start having kids. Why are we only focusing on the extreme ends?

It depends, for females science indicates the safest and best age for children is 20-30

I’m 47. And that’s great, but seeing as how the younger folks are still young, it’s hard to say how that will play out long term.

BG, don’t forget about all of those horrid BRUNCHES.

Brunch is another one of those Gen X and millennial women scams. Marketed at lonely yuppy strivers to make day drinking your weekends away seem stylish. Also makes them unlikely to attend church or synagogue, in other words, Godless gluttony and hedonism. It’s a sad and unserious waste of life by people more than old enough and successful enough to have a baby and a husband. Weekends raising a baby are a bit more meaningful than overpriced carbs and booze.

Exactly. These threads always bring out projecting IVF moms in denial about how old they look and they refuse to admit they’re tired as hell and their back aches.

Most of my friends who married college or grad school BFs/GFs are happily married with good careers and 1-3 kids. Few divorced but those were very predictable cases with difficult personalities and they also divorced their second spouses whom they met in 40's.

Young or old, there are some common themes like, debt, infidelity, alcohol, long distance, in-laws, mental health.

IVF is a blessing but its expensive, frustrating and not guaranteed AND you still have genetic issues due to aged eggs. Freezing eggs keeps younger eggs but it is as expensive and still not guaranteed.

I’m trying to tease this out too and I think it’s because the moms in their 40s probably have nannies. So yay, parenthood is easy and fun.

+1. But also a lot of lying ideologues on here who would never confess modern (corporate) liberalism and feminism have been a disaster for the West. The West is literally dying off because young adults aren’t marrying early enough to have a few kids.

Yeah, your generation has a different attitude about divorce, self-centeredness, prioritizing "my career," separate finances, etc. It's not surprising that the outcome is divorce and people waiting to ensure they are self-sufficient, ending up older in case of being divorced.
