What do you guys think about it

I believe it is the perfect age for girls, and for boys... they are still immature for marriage.

Way too young kiddo.

Depends on where you are and what type of family support system you have

18 far too young

Yeah. If you're kacsi, just bash your bishop. These young marriages don't tend to last. I'm 24 and I think I might just be about ready now.

Adeer gaaladan aad ku dayanaysaan iska dhaafa; yaryarku dareen ayay leeyihiin, markay gaaladu yiraaheen weli guur maysan gaarin; ogow yaryarkoodu baahidooda 'Boyfriend' iyo 'Girlfriend' ayay leeyihiin oo ka qanciya.

Marka su'aashu waxay tahay sidee loo qanciyaa baahida kuweena yaryar? Ha sinaystaan miyaa la leeyahay?

Adeer gaaladu guur iyo guur la'aanba baahidoodu waa banaanka. Idinku guuxiina haka dheereenina!

nooo walahi....it's not like that. Im gonna stop talking about myself but it's genuine advice for him. Come on he's 18 so it's a big possibility.

Depends how mature individuals involved are, how much they know about what a marriage entails and off course parental support as Gegigoor mentioned.

If you the couple can get a room in their parents house until they can get on their feet would be ideal.

Monkey sees monkey does yaysan sheekadeennu noqon dee!

The Western lifestyle is not compatible with ours when it comes to marriage. They get their needs met whether they are married or not, so postponing it is no deal to them but with us it is different because you don't get to have sex without being married. So it becomes crucial to marry as early as possible. That is all I am saying.

^ I know you should get married as early as possible but it's a bad idea to just do it for sex and disregard everything else? What about mental health issues? In and out of prison? Balwad? And all the other fucked up shit. A ciyaal won't understand the seriousness of marriage and they'll demand a divorce after the first argument. Broken families and single parent households are not something they should be running to. Masterbation is the answer if he wants to get married solely cos of kacsi.

I'm 24 and i'm a lot more mature than I was when I was 18. I've had a lot more life lessons. 20's is the time to get married - preferably >23 yrs.

Of course you are more mature; that is given.

Anyways, it is not just about sex, although very important to be fulfilled.

And the mental health can be a problem to anyone not just kids, and what I said is general not specific!

About the divorce; we saw adults get divorce for trivial things, I don't see anyone calling for adult marriages to be postponed!

I know kids are not mature enough. That is why they have 4 parents and the whole family shaping them and guiding them.

And responsibility can be reduced by not having babies until their early twenties.

That way they can have a partner in life and their biological needs fulfilled.

An 18 yr old born and raised in the West, ready for marriage? LOLLOLLOL!

That's a good age to get married.
