I got married at the age of 20. It will be 5 years in May. I wouldn't trade it or her for anything. She is my best friend. I (because of religious beliefs) believe that in order to have a strong society we need strong families. Look at the Roman empire. It fell apart becauseof the moral coruption within the family. The family unit breaks down....society breaks down. I am sure I will be flamed forever for being so traditonal. Fortunately I don't care. This is just my humble opinion. It deffinately won't work for everyone.
