marriage without children- agree or disagree?

A happy marriage is made up by many factors. And the decision whether to have children or not is the most prominent choice should be given on the top priority. Many young couples prefer living without children than having one. They always complaint about the loss of freedom that parenthood brings but they do not think of what benefits parenthood bring to them. I strongly disagree with this because being a parent gives us a richer and fuller life which is very good for our mental well-being. Having children help us enrich our life, learn more and give birth.

Children enrich our life in mental. We spend all our little spare time to take care of our children even 24 hours per day to sure that our children are in the best condition. You will realize you love them very much. The first time we hear their voice that is happiness. Day by day we see our children grow up is happiness. We receive happiness from our children. We can get to be a kid again and can do childish things such as: Putting our children on thighs and watching our favorite cartoons, play blind-man-buff, play with toys, even throw ball around with your children. You can walk along the shore to collect shells, go to the park to play games… our life will be very colorful. Isn’t it? Another thing is that children make us laugh more. Children are funny. They always do thing humorous and parents enjoy these moment with kids. Many people say that when couples have children they lose their freedom. Nevertheless, what do couples do after work? May be they just eating and watching TV and then go to bed. So we have to say that having children has tons of fun.

Having children make parents learn more than anything else. Being parents is a job we have to spend all our life. When we have children, we have to put our children’s benefits before our own. We are not the center of galaxy any more. That means we are learning to be unselfish. Meanwhile, we are learning how to protect and take care of our kids effectively. When we were young, we received much love from our parents and now, we give it to our kids. We have useful lesson about love, we have chance to be parents to love our parents more and more. Our children approach the world with a lot of wonder. Everything is new to them. That is the reason why we have many opportunities to answer some interesting questions such as: “Why the sky is blue?”, “why dogs have 4 legs while chickens have 2?” or “why does it rain?”… Thanks to these lovely questions we can improve knowledge. My parents told me that before I was born; my father always spent all money he earned freely that made my Mom very worried. However, when I was born, my father leant how to use money effectively. My parents tried their best to give me the best condition. So having kids help parents improve themselves to give good thing to their children.

The most important thing is having children to remain happy marriage. A happy marriage depends very much on whether you have children or not. In Viet Nam, the rate of divorce because of not having children is very high. According to the latest survey, every 100 married couples have 95 divorces because one of them cannot give birth. Every year, billions of VND is used to cure for childless while many others couples especially women don’t want children though they are capable. They scare about the loss of freedom, they like enjoying the selfish life without interference from children. Falling in love, getting married and giving birth is the traditional custom of Vietnamese people. Being parents is not only our responsibility but also happiness. Let’s spend 5 minutes to think about our life in the future life. If we don’t have children how can we live when we are getting older? We will live alone during the rest life.

In summary, having children or not is very important to parents and it is the main factor create a happy marriage. Many people do not like children but I completely disagree. Having children is not only happiness but also responsibility of a person.
