Question: Should I be married with children? I come from a small town, and it seems like the majority of the people I went to school with are married and/or have children.  I'm 23, almost 24.  I'm still in college because I had a few setbacks, but am set to graduate in May.  I have been w/my current bf for almost 4 years now and he's also set to graduate in May.  He's almost 28.  Is it not normal that we're not married and having kids yet?  I am ready to get married or at least engaged, but not have kids.  Is 20-24 the normal marriage/kid having time?

Answer: Nope, if it's not what you want for YOU, don't get married or have children.  Doing it because it's expected or normal is a terrible reason.  Marriage or kids are huge commitments.
