Your right, but then again an 18 year old has about as much business marrying as I do commanding the space shuttle.

cracks me up with those who say stats show but then give numbers from a place which backs their view up.
I’;d rather my kids know that they can live with someone than just wait and then find out he eats food in bed, leaves socks up, is a slob, is a bad tempered man, smashes things up
Like the saying goes, you do not know the person until you have lived with them
I lived with now my wife for two years and then we married and now we have 3 kids and going on 16 years and if a small minority doesn’t like it then tough, we’re happy and happy we did it like that

I disagree with the stereotype that 18 years old is too young to marry. I met my wife while we were both in High School (me 17, she 16). Within a year of dating I KNEW that I was going to marry her. Three years after meeting, she 19 and me 20, we married. We have been married for 25 years, we have three children and I have never had sex with anyone else, and I wouldn't want to do it over any differently.
The most confused single men I knew, were the ones who tried to live the philosophy of sleeping around awhile before settling down. If any of my children told me they wanted to get married at 18, I certainly wouldn't be against it because of the age. In fact, I think the sooner, the better.
