My analysis is devoted
to the topic "When and how to build a family”. The topic itself is very broad
and probably that’s why the users left 76 answers. The whole discussion was
narrowed actually to the notion of love and its importance while building a
family. In the beginning some said that it’s very significant to have starting
money before creating a family, but they were convinced by others that love is
a key factor of any family. If there is love, then there is good future for the
family. Though the financial aspect should
be taken into consideration, we can’t deny the way we treat our spouses, e.g.
whether we feel something towards them or it’s just a matter of pure interest.
Of course, I should tsay hat the main question claimed in the header remains
unanswered, but still I repeat that this is a very broad topic.
Discussing the
thing users would rather say that there are no ideal people than admitting their
uncertain attitude to the question. It seems that the question 'how' was
discussed quite thoroughly. The conclusion about the time of creating a family
is the following – there should be nor rush in it definitely. Even if you marry
at 30, there is nothing scaring – you have more than a half of your life ahead.
Passion and love – this is what should in the center of any family. Those ones
that are created by desire to get financially independent or to secure one’s
future family life by material possessions seem to be sensible but not morally
correct. Still such families are quite stable because its dependent element –
the spouse that see some security while being with his/her partner – tries hard
to keep the family together. Though there is no happiness, of course, in such
families. What is more important – modern tendency makes many to behave in this
a way.
Another issue
that was discussed in the frames of this topic is when parents strongly
recommend what their children should do when they create a family. Probably it’s
a controversial issue, but as one participant of the discussion said – they should
advise, but not decide. Parents certainly play a great role in one’s life and
they wish only the best to their off-springs, but one shouldn’t forget that this
is their own life and very often do not understand how important this or that decision
for young is. Especially if we take marriage into account. In this situation it’d
be very reasonable to take advice from your parents, but own feelings and
situations assessment should definitely prevail.
And the last
thing that was overviewed in the topic is an archaic tradition when parents
decided upon who to marry and when to marry. If forums existed at that time such a theme
for a thread would never come to one’s head. Ok, if we give up being ironic, we
should mention that frequently such marriages weren’t happy, but economically successful.
That was the point, and still old times are old times, let’s get them aside. We
live in modern world and should discuss things which are relevant in this
setting.
So, to finish my
essay I should say that the number of messages left is accounted for by the
urgency of the topic and the extent to which users that are mostly young men
and women regard this theme significant for them and worth discussing. The
conclusion is the following – each one decides for himself when and how to
build his family. |
