Why don't young people want to get married anymore?
Over the past few decades, we have come to realize that modern young people's attitudes towards marriage and childbearing have changed dramatically. More and more young people are choosing to delay marriage or even give up their plans to marry and have children. This phenomenon has led many people to think: why are modern young people reluctant to get married? What is the reason for this change? This article will address this issue from two perspectives: financial stress and parental responsibility.
1. Economic pressure.
First of all, financial pressure is one of the important reasons why modern young people are reluctant to get married. With the development of society, the cost of living continues to rise, and many young people are discouraged by housing prices, education expenses and other expenses. Getting married not only means taking on the responsibilities of the family, but also facing more financial pressures. Many young people find it difficult to afford weddings, mortgages, children's education, etc., so they choose to give up on marriage temporarily or permanently.
2. Parental responsibility.
In addition, the expectations of the role of parents in modern society are increasing, which is discouraging many young people. Modern parents not only have to take on the responsibility of caring for their children, but also need to take on more responsibility for education and upbringing. Many young people believe that they themselves are not ready to be parents, fearing that they will not be able to take on such responsibilities, and therefore choose to delay or forgo childbearing.
To sum up, the main reasons for the reluctance of modern young people to get married include high financial pressure and concerns about parental responsibility. With the development of society and the change of attitudes, we believe that this phenomenon will become more and more common. Therefore, we should pay more attention to this problem and find solutions at multiple levels such as policy, society, and family, so as to create a better living environment for young people.
