When you were in college tuition wasn’t $100k with interest, a middle class living rent wasn’t $2 k

And the divorce rate wasn’t 50%

Women helped bring this on. It’s different now

They need to study, then work 3 years to get a profession established. Then they’re financially ready for marriage. Ditto guys

Back in the day a man had a means of provider ship and tge woman had a dowry

For a reason that still exists

The couples I know who got married out of college and had kids right away have had to struggle with no freedom to raise their kids the way they wanted to

In my day, there used to be a saying in college, “She is looking for an MRS degree.” Probably would be considered sexist now.

I reiterate. The economy is radically different now. Our kids can not afford to be fooling around in any way. They will do it but they cannot afford it. They feel
It when they try to raise families. Everyone has to be out of the house kids, mom, everyone. And the better fall in line. If the kids are getting brainwashed in school or abused too bad mommy has her boss as priority

Versus the college students getting a good education, serious skills credentials, experience in a profession and the ability for a parent to stay home w kids as needed

Leverage. It’s obtained in college

Plus the education system is different- elementary and high school. Way inferior.
