Still, if their sole goal in life is to be a wife and mother, then they probably would be ok as they would be willing to sacrifice all else to accomodate their ambition. There's only one problem. In today's world as you say, there is exposure to many options and besides, at 19, one hardly knows oneself that much, talkless of Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09467664797856391600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368292470846319938.post-63839097461142659872010-12-20T23:23:02.087-05:002010-12-20T23:23:02.087-05:00@ Beautiful...yes o....na so the thing dey go o.

I told her I wanted to get married around 18/19 years. She just looked at me like I was crazy, and now that I think back, I must have been crazy..lol...I wish your friends wonderful married lives.

I kind of feel that this the other end of the spectrum. @ some point in Nigeria, ladies were advised to step down from their high financial and achiecvement ladders in order to get spouses. This is the end result. Now, ladies wanna grow with their significant others, so that when the achiecements come, they do no have to worry about scaring men away...#just~a~line~of~thought#<br />AlsoHoneyDamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06630155612892969091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368292470846319938.post-49438355084122145342010-12-20T17:37:08.981-05:002010-12-20T17:37:08.981-05:00While I am not in support of a 19 yr old girl'...While I am not in support of a 19 yr old girl's marriage, I feel it is important to understand that marriage is meant for mature minds and once they feel they can handle what is ahead, why not?

It makes me think that all this talk of feminism is 'all talk'. <br />I know some young girls are mature for their age; but if I had a daughter, I would prefer she lives aloneN.I.L (Naijamum in London)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15874463908664570341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368292470846319938.post-76557295286140682102010-12-18T00:58:48.369-05:002010-12-18T00:58:48.369-05:00@ Blessing, my sentiments exactly!

There actually are some people that you would not be able to tell their age, just because of the maturity level. but the ones I am referring to in this post o, they are the typical 19-21 year olds.

You know, it would be a different ball game if from one's evaluation, the girl happens to be the mature, but this is not necessarily the case. And I wonder how many of their husbands will be patient enough with them to guide them towards the marital growth. May Christ have mercy.<br />**pulling my chair for gbeborun*** ehnehn? Epe people?
