My niece was 19 and her husband had just turned 21. He is a carpenter and she is going to a local college to become a teacher. They own their own home and just had their first baby a few weeks ago. Virgins when they got married so earlier was better for them. They’re doing great! I think your broad brush is a bit ridiculous.

Just as using your ONE experience is ridiculous. We will see how they do in ten years. By the way, they don’t own their own home. Maybe in 30 years they will but definitely not yet.

Okay, his twin brother married the year before with similar results. My parents, my brother and his wife, my nieces in-laws, my in-laws, my husband and I all got married before the age of 24. This is just immediate family here. Should I go on? I have lots of friends.

You’re right. They don’t own the home outright yet. However, he bought it on a 15 year loan three years ago. He didn’t see the point of renting and bought a small 3 bedroom home after he got his first job out of high school. So they’ll own it before too long. There are stories like this all over the place. Sorry you’re not seeing it. It’s pretty amazing! Good, strong conservative kids.
