What Makes Marriages Difficult

for Today’s Generation?

 Today’s youth and their concept of marriage

Today’s generation is oblivious about what qualities go

behind making a good marriage because most of the
youth either stay by themselves in some city for work, or
stay with their parents.

The system of joint family isn’t preferred much nowadays.

Because of the no joint-family culture and isolated living,
today’s youth don’t have an understanding about
compromises, sacrifices, sharing, caring and adjustments
of taking up the household chores on a daily basis.
 Things make marriages difficult for today’s generation
Marriages are difficult for today’s generation because of the
expectations that the same scenario will continue after the
marriage which was before marriage.

Mostly everyone today is well educated and is having a good

paying job. This makes it difficult for  both individuals in
marriage to concentrate on the house chores properly. No one
wants to do the house duties, and everything is taken for
granted or assumed to be taken care of by the other partner.

Proper understanding about how a married life should be as

compared to how it was before marriage, and the readiness to
compromise without ego clashes, is mostly lacking in today’s
youth.
 The role of parents in their children’s marriage

The role of parents in a person’s life is not to just

educate them highly and take care of everything in
order to help children have a high paying job.

A parent’s role is equally important when it comes to

the marriage of their children. They need to inculcate
their children with proper knowledge about the
reality of a married life and how it should be. Core
values which are important in a married life should
be imparted to the children, so their children can
have a happy marriage with their partner.
How to deal with unexpected happenings after marriage?
To many, even those who have love marriages, the
after-marriage phase can come as shock. Especially
the first year, because the expectations from each
other changes after marriage, for both the
individuals.

A simple way to deal with such a shock or change is to

know and work on things in a married life together.
Topics like how to deal with the in-laws and relatives,
how to share the household matters together, how
and when to plan finances and investments and
adjusting to the life as it comes, is the way to have a
good marriage.
Marriage is good!
