    I just bumped into this question on Qoura Social Questions website:-

    "I'm 18 years old. I want to get married, is that normal?"
    _______________________________________________

    I married my first wife at 17. People tell you that you have the whole of your life so can leave it until later. In reality a woman produces less eggs as she gets older. Any time from the age of fifty upwards she loses the ability to produce eggs and so can no longer produce babies. Females are most fertile as a teenager and it is the right time to start a family not the wrong time; that is the way nature designed us! The problem is your social position in the community and lack of money at the age of 18…

    I have done graduate education and I was always very concious of the fact that a lot of students are told to get on with their career because they can come back to starting a family later. It always occurred to me , as somebody who had my first son when I was a teenager, that undergraduates are being segregated off, from family minded people, and a high percentage never come back to the role of starting a family. A lot never do it………

    My opinon has always been get on with it! For tomorrow you may no longer be able to!

    Let me think on that a bit. Get back to me and I'll let you know when I think any of you should start a family. And don't don't start one until I say so! :angry:
