Some people feel that the legal age at which people can marry should be at least 21. To what extend do you agree or disagree?
The suitable time for someone getting married is always a controversial topic.Some people opine that it should be at least 21, others think we should let everyone make their own decision on choosing the best time to tie a knot, even at a very young
age
like 16. In my opinion, this
viewpoint is justifiable to a certain extent.
Firstly
, there are a number of benefits when the legal marriage age
is raised to 21. Apparently, when the youth 21 reaches, the youth may be eligible for a job which helps them improve their economically advantaged background to afford the living costs such
as nurturing an offspring, buying some furniture for their family. On the one hand ,
for people who come from a wealthy family, they do not need to depend on their parents' budget and Accept space
,
on the other hand
, it will be easier to make ends meet in case of people from lower socioeconomic groups. Moreover
, when the younger reach maturity so that they are aware of their actions. As a result
, they are willing to be responsible for some undesirable consequences during the period of falling in love with someone like pregnancy at a very young age
.
However
, I also
believe that the age
of marriage should depend on individuals rather than being compelled by law.In some bad situations like they become pregnant. That means if the legislation is applied, they are forced to abort their fetus, which goes against the core of humankind's right. Or in some very special cases like in the time of pandemic or war, some people desiring to marry with someone may face a plethora of obstacles from the law. Therefore
, not only their circumstances impede their opportunity to get married, but also
they have to comply with the law. For example
, a thousand couples on the global scale are prevented from tying the wedding knot because of the fear of the infection of Covid disease.
In conclusion, both ideas have their own pros and cons so that I concur with the idea that we should take into account whether the wedding should be took place or not based on their condition, circumstance in order to make the best final decision.Submitted by Andy on
