And in 15 years, you can post about their divorce.

College grads have the lowest rates of divorce.

So? That statistic didn’t stop all the college friends I had who got divorced after their post-college weddings.

You’re right, your anecdata is so much more meaningful than actual statistics. Carry on.

+1. And college grads who marry earliest have even lower rates of divorce. This thread is full of bitter people.

That’s already very much a thing. You don’t think people know if not gossip that your son or daughter is a leftover when they’re 30+ and unmarried?

Why nature still prefers age range of 15-35 for peak fertility?

Oh so you are saying that one stupid statistic is going to protect this one couple you know.

Good to know you’re an idiot.

It's human nature. If you move in ambitious striver circles and you haven't heard anyone gossiping about adult kids, it's because you're childless or maybe you have a leftover kid. Parents absolutely gossip about so and so's kids and who's single and who's not — and why they're single.

The only difference is they’ll divorce younger too.

Wow. PP was right. Ghastly.

This isn’t a thing in my highly-educated circles.
