Marriage and children are not for everyone.
First, not everybody can be an attentive, present parent. Some people do not have the emotional energy.And not everybody can wait to share their whole lives with just one special person.
Some people are just built differently. Some people are poor at compromising. We all know at least one or two of these people. But because society treats marriage and procreation as compulsory, we end up having lots of disillusioned people and broken hearts.
Second, life is about self-fulfillment. We find contentment in different things. You have no right to dictate to another what these things should be.
Society believing that everyone should have children or that everyone should marry is why we have so many cases of negligent parents, frustrated, abusive marriage partners and unions that are just not going anywhere.Women always single out the perennially single women in the group and ask them and each other,
“What is wrong with her?” You do not even think about the woman who is always in a relationship, the one who can’t be single, the one who would rather be with anyone.
Finally, the one who has been married multiple times is only happy when she is Mrs. So and So. What about her? What is wrong with her?There are benefits to being spoken for just as there are to being free and wild. Ultimate happiness is not found in either one or the other.
Therefore, as a matter of fact, it is not compulsory that after marriage there must follow the bearing of children. Those are choices which may or may not be affected.
