Young adults today are not wholly to blame for marrying later in life. The adults in their lives, and institutions like schools and the Church, also bear some responsibility. These negative effects flowed from what we have done and what we have failed to do, individually and collectively. This is about all of us.

1. money
2. child rearing
I don't think that things have changed, do you?
Marrying later in life means additional maturity for both. That's a good thing.
I was 29 and my husband was 34...and we were introduced by my sister (who worked with husband).

Very true.
And there has been a calculated effort from some quarters to undermine the family unit. For example, for about 40 years or so, little girls have been discouraged from thinking about becoming mothers. Instead of baby dolls, as we had when I was a little girl, the market has been flooded with so-called fashion dolls. So the child, instead of practicing nurturing a child of her own, is imagining herself as an adult dressing up in all sorts of grown-up costumes.
